The slant shear test is widely accepted for evaluating the bond of resinous repair materials to concrete; it utilizes cylinder specimens made of two identical halves bonded at 30°. An article reported that for 12 specimens prepared using wire-brushing, the sample mean shear strength (N/mm2) and sample standard deviation were 18.60 and 1.56, respectively, whereas for 12 hand-chiseled specimens, the corresponding values were 23.19 and 4.07. Does the true average strength appear to be different for the two methods of surface preparation? State and test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of 0.05.

Passengers died when a particular water taxi sank. Men are typically heavier than women and children, so when loading a water taxi, assume a worst-case scenario in which all passengers are men. Assume that weights of men are normally distributed with a mean of 196 lb and a standard deviation of 41lb. The water taxi that sank had a stated capacity of 25 passengers, and the boat was rated for a load limit of 3750lb. Complete parts (a) through (d) below a. the max mean weight is________________lb b. if the water is filled with 25 randomly selected men, what is the probability that thier mean weight exceeds the vlue from part (a)? c. after the water taxi sank, the weight assumptionswere revised so that the new capacity became 20 passengers. if the water taxi is filled wiwth 20 randomly seleed men, what is the probability tht their mean weight exceeds 187.5 lb, which is the max mean weight that does not cause the total load to exceed 3750ld. d. is the new caoacity of 20…
The existing machine setting of a factory produces bearings with a diameter that is normally distributed with mean and standard deviation equal to 3.0005 cm and 0.0010 cm, respectively. Customer specifications require the bearing diameters to lie in the interval [2.998, 3.002]. Those outside the interval are considered scrap and must be re-machined. With the existing machine selling, what fraction of total production will not be considered scrap?

Reyesburg Corporation is contemplating using a new, more expensive glue in the construction of its laminated veneer lumber. Of importance to the company is the variability of the carrying load of the lumber. The company has tested 20 beams using the new glue, recording for each beam the pressure (in pounds per square foot) at which the beam breaks. The data collected are presented in the following histogram: Frequency 920 Carrying load (in pounds per square foot) 900 Based on this histogram, estimate the standard deviation of the sample of 20 carrying loads. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answer to at least one decimal place. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)

The manager of a large company claims that the standard deviation of the time (in minutes) that it takes a telephone call to be transferred to the correct office in her company is 1.2 minutes or less. A sample of 15 calls is selected, and the calls are timed. The standard deviation of the sample is 1.8 minutes. At alpha= 0.01, test the claim that the standard deviation is less than or equal to 1.2 minutes. Required: Test Value Note: Only the final answer should be rounded-off to TWO decimal places.
