The management of KSmall Industries is considering a new method of assembling a computer. The current assembling method requires a mean time of 86 minutes with a standard deviation of 7.4 minutes. Using the new method, the mean assembly time for a random sample of 24 computers was 71 minutes. Required: a. Using the 0.10 level of significance, can we conclude that the assembly time using the new method is faster? Reject Ho The mean assembly time is b. What is the probability of a Type Il error? Note: Round "Critical values" to 2 decimal places and round your final answer to 4 decimal places. Probability of Type II error less than 86 minutes. 0.0000

The coach of a very popular men’s basketball team claims that the average distance the fans travel to the campus to watch a game is 35 miles. The team members feel otherwise. A sample of 16 fans who travel to games was randomly selected and yielded a mean of M= 36 miles and s= 5 miles. Test the coach’s claim at the 5% (.05) level of significance. one-tailed or two-tailed test: State the hypotheses: df= tα or t value for the critical region = sM = t (test statistic)= Decision:

The lecturer are concerned that students who enrolled for the course this semester are spending more time playing online games than revising for their upcoming test. In order to pass the test, students need to spend at least 6 hours per week on the course materials. They conducted a survey of 120 students from Section 10G and 15P for which the result shows that the mean time they spent studying for the course in a week is 5.7667 hours with a standard deviation of 1.6487 hours. Using the critical value z0.025 =1.96 , perform hypothesis testing for mean to test whether or not students spent at least 6 hours weekly to study for the course.
Dr. Graham is interested in determining if middle-aged adults use text messaging more or less frequently than the general population. Dr. Graham collects information on text messaging from a random sample of 50 adults ages 25 to 44. Dr. Graham finds that these individuals send or receive an average of 68 text messages per day. Using the population mean (and standard deviation) of 41.5 texts per day (34 texts per day), determine whether adults in this age group use text messaging more than the general public.
Choose the appropriate statistical test. When computing, be sure to round each answer as indicated. A dentist wonders if depression affects ratings of tooth pain. In the general population, using a scale of 1-10 with higher values indicating more pain, the average pain rating for patients with toothaches is 6.8. A sample of 30 patients that show high levels of depression have an average pain rating of 7.1 (variance 0.8). What should the dentist determine? 1. Calculate the estimated standard error. (round to 3 decimals). [st.error] 2. What is thet-obtained? (round to 3 decimals). 3. What is the t-cv? (exact value) 4. What is your conclusion? Only type "Reject" or Retain"
Perform a left tail test to test whether Machine-2 has less variability. Use a significance level of 0.01. What is the conclusion of the test results?
A lumber company is making boards that are 2777.0 millimeters tall. If the boards are too long they must be trimmed, and if the boards are too short they cannot be used. A sample of 29 is made, and it is found that they have a mean of 2780.9 millimeters with a standard deviation of 12.0. A level of significance of 0.1 will be used to determine if the boards are either too long or too short. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Unoccupied seats on flights cause avrlines to lose revenue. As an intern in the finance department for Golden Ticket Airlines, Carlos is tasked with estimating the average number of unoccupied seats per flight over the past year. To accomplish this, the records of 222 flights are randomly selected and the number of unoccupied seats is noted for each of the sampled flights. The sample mean is 18 seats and the standard deviation is 2.5 seats. Construct a 80% confidence interval for the population mean number of unoccupied seats per flight during the past year. If necessary, round results to 1 decimal places.
A food distribution company claims that a restaurant chain receives, on average, 26 pounds of fresh vegetables on a daily basis. The standard deviation of these shipments is known to be 4.4 pounds. The district manager of the restaurant chain decides to randomly sample 35 shipments from the company and finds a mean weight of 24.7 pounds. Test at a 3% level of significance to determine whether or not the food distribution company sends less than 26 pounds of fresh vegetables. a. Check the TWO requirements that are satisfied. The Central Limit Theorem applies. The a distribution is normal since n > 30. The a distribution is normal since the x distribution is normal. The p distribution is normal since np > 5 and nq > 5.

A metropolitan transportation authority has set a bus mechanical reliability goal of 3,900 bus miles. Bus mechanical reliability is measured specifically as the number of bus miles between mechanical road calls.
