An automatic filling machine is used to fill bottles with liquid detergent. A random sample of 20 bottles results in a sample variance of fill volume of s2 = 0.0153 (fluid ounces) 2. If the variance of fill volume exceeds 0.01 (fluid ounces)2, an unacceptable proportion of bottles will be underfilled or overfilled. Using a level of significance of 0.05, and assuming that fill volume has a normal distribution, answer the following questions. If χ2critical = 30.14, is there evidence in the sample data to suggest that the manufacturer has a problem with underfilled or overfilled bottles?

The average number of miles a person drives per day is 24. A researcher wishes to see if people over age 60 drive less than 24 miles per day. She selects a random sample of 40 drivers over the age of 60 and finds that the mean number of miles driven is 22.7. The population standard deviation is 2.9 miles. At =α0.01, is there sufficient evidence that those drivers over 60 years old drive less than 24 miles per day on average? Assume that the variable is normally distributed. Use the critical value method with tables. State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis.

A company that manufactures light bulbs claims that its light bulbs last an average of 1,150 hours. A sample of 25 light bulbs manufactured by this company gave a mean life of 1067 hours and a standard deviation of 137 hours. A consumer group wants to test the hypothesis that the mean life of light bulbs produced by this company is less than 1,150 hours. The significance level is 5%. Assume the population is normally distributed. What is the critical value of t? O-2.787 O-1.711 O-1.704 -2.797 What is the value of the test statistic, t, rounded to three decimal places? What is the p-value for this hypothesis test, rounded to four decimal places? Should you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis in this test? Does the data provide evidence to contradict the company's claim about the average lifetime of their light bulbs?
A random sample of size n = 13 obtained from a population that is normally distributed results in a sample mean of 44.8 and sample standard deviation 12.7. An independent sample of size n = 18 obtained from a population that is normally distributed results in a sample mean of 52.3 and sample standard deviation 15.6. Does this constitute sufficient evidence to conclude that the population means differ at the a = 0.01 level of significance? Click here to view the standard normal distribution table (page 1).

In the manufacture of steel rollers to fit an assembly, the external diameter is considered to be a random variable with mean equal to 23 mm and variance equal to 0.0036 cm2. 1.5 is supported standard deviations more than the mean and 3.5 standard deviations below average. A piece with a diameter below such specifications is considered waste, whereas a piece with a diameter larger than specified must be reprocessed. Which is the percentage of pieces that:to. They are being wasted.b. They need to be reprocessed.c. Acceptable.d. If you want to establish that the reprocessing is 5% of the rollers and waste of 1%, than specification limit would recommend.
Even though the population standard deviation is unknown, an investigator uses z rather than the more appropriate t to test a hypothesis at the .05 level of significance. Is the true level of significance larger or smaller than .05? Is the true critical value larger or smaller than that for the critical z?
