Textbook Question
Chapter 3.1, Problem 16MS
Hair counts. Do there exist two nonbald people on Earth such that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the collection of hairs on one person’s body and the collection of hairs on the other person’s body? Feel free to use facts from previous chapters, but explain how they provide an answer to the one-to-one correspondence question.

One bulb manufacturer claims an average bulb life of 1,600 hours. It is suspected that the actual average is significantly lower. To verify this, a sample of 49 bulbs is selected and the life of each bulb is measured. A sample mean of 1,500 hours and a standard deviation of 120 hours were obtained from them.
Can you be sure, at 5% significance, that the mean life is less than what the manufacturer claims?
The specification calls for the dimension of a certain mechanical part to be 0.55 inches. A random sample of 35 parts taken from a large batch showed a mean 0.54 in. with a deviation of 0.05 in.
Can it be concluded, at 1% significance, that the batch of parts meets the required specification?

- A manufacturer produces a wire rope of a certain type, which has a breaking strength of not more than 300 kg. A new and cheaper process is discovered which is desired to be employed, provided that the wire rope thus produced has an average breaking strength greater than 300 kg. If a random sample of 26 wires produced with the new process has given a mean of 304.5 kg and a standard deviation of 15 kg, should the manufacturer adopt the new process?arrow_forward5. mit answer urces Use Simpson's Rule and all the data in the following table to estimate the value of the 31 integral f(x) dx. 25 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 f(x) 4 44 4 -9 -2 9 2 5 (Round your answer to within two decimal places if necessary, but do not round until your final computation.)
