Chapter 8.5, Problem 54E

Consider the large-sample level .01 test in Section 8.4 for testing H0: p = .2 against Ha: p > .2.

  1. a. For the alternative value p = .21. compute β(.21) for sample sizes n = 100, 2500, 10,000, 40,000, and 90,000.
  2. b. For p ^ = x/n = .21, compute the P-value when n = 100, 2500, 10,000, and 40,000.
  3. c. In most situations, would it be reasonable to use a level .01 test in conjunction with a sample size of 40,000? Why or why not?

A quality characteristic of a product is normally distributed with mean μ and standard deviation σ = 1. Speci- fications on the characteristic are 6≤x≤8. A unit that falls within specifications on this quality characteristic results in a profit of Co. However, if x 8, the profit is -C2. Find the value ofμ that maximizes the expected profit.
A) The output voltage of a power supply is normally distributed with mean 5 V and standard deviation 0.02 V. If the lower and upper specifications for voltage are 4.95 V and 5.05 V, respectively, what is the probability that a power supply selected at random conform to the specifications on voltage? B) Continuation of A. Reconsider the power supply manufacturing process in A. Suppose We wanted to improve the process. Can shifting the mean reduce the number of nonconforming units produced? How much would the process variability need to be reduced in order to have all but one out of 1000 units conform to the specifications?
