A random sample of 12 snow piles in Washington has a mean sample thickness of 64.5cm and a stand. dev. of 7.9cm. Let's say the thickness has a normal distribution and we use an a=10% level of significance to test that the mean thickness of snow in Washington is less than Wyoming's snow thickness. What is the null and alternate hypothesis? How do we find the critical value and test statistic? We also need to make a decision about the null hypothesis using the test statistic and the traditional method then summarize a final conclusion.arrow_forward
- An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 170 engines and the mean pressure was 7.5 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population variance is 0.36. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 7.4 psi. It is believed that the valve does not perform to the specifications. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic.
