A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 421 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 43 bag sample had a mean of 414 grams. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 19.

Required:
a. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the bags are underfilled?
b. Find the P-value of the test statistic.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The p-value of the test is 0.0078 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the bags are underfilled.

b) 0.0078.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 421 gram setting.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of 421, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 421[/tex]

It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags.

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of less than 421, that is:

[tex]H_a: \mu < 421[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

421 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 421[/tex]

A 43 bag sample had a mean of 414 grams. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 19.

This means that [tex]n = 43, X = 414, \sigma = 19[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{414 - 421}{\frac{19}{\sqrt{43}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.42[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean below 414, which is the p-value of z = -2.42.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.42 has a p-value of 0.0078.

The p-value of the test is 0.0078 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the bags are underfilled.

b. Find the P-value of the test statistic.

As found above, the p-value of the test statistic is 0.0078.

A set of solar batteries is used in a research satellite. The satellite can run on only one battery, but it runs best if more than one battery is used. The variance σ2 of lifetimes of these batteries affects the useful lifetime of the satellite before it goes dead. If the variance is too small, all the batteries will tend to die at once. Why? If the variance is too large, the batteries are simply not dependable. Why? Engineers have determined that a variance of σ2 = 23 months (squared) is most desirable for these batteries. A random sample of 30 batteries gave a sample variance of 16.3 months (squared). Using a 0.05 level of significance, test the claim that σ2 = 23 against the claim that σ2 is different from 23.

Answers

Answer:

Hence, we reject H_0 as There  is sufficient evidence to show that population variance is not 23

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size [tex]n=30[/tex]

Variance [tex]\sigma= 16.8[/tex]

Significance Level [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 23[/tex]

Genet=rally the Hypothesis are as follows

Null [tex]H_0=\sigma^2=23[/tex]

Alternative [tex]H_a=\sigma^2 \neq 23[/tex]

Generally the equation for Chi distribution t is mathematically given by

t test statistics

[tex]X^2=\frac{(n-1)\sigma}{\sigma^2}[/tex]

[tex]X^2=\frac{(30-1)16.8^2}{23}[/tex]

The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands. Determine the minimum production cost.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $562,500 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.

 C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0

  x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25

The cost at that production point is ...

  C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625

The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.

_____

Additional comment

This is different than the minimum cost per item. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.

BY
-

Answers

Answer:

(- 6, 8 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a reflection in the y- axis

a point (x, y ) → (- x, y ) , then

A' (6, 8 ) → A (- 6, 8 )

Then the pre-image of A' is A (- 6, 8 )

The pre-image of vertex A' would be (-8, 6) on the graph was created by a reflection across the y- axis

The pre-image of vertex A' after a reflection across the y-axis can be found by taking the corresponding point on the other side of the y-axis.

If the image is shown on the graph, and vertex A' is located at (8, 6), then the pre-image of vertex A' would be the point on the opposite side of the y-axis, which has the same x-coordinate but the opposite sign for the y-coordinate.

So, the pre-image of vertex A' would be (-8, 6).

Answer:

  A)  (2, ∞) . . . . or C) (-∞, 0) ∪ (2, ∞) if you don't think about it

Step-by-step explanation:

We want ...

  C(x)/x < 100

  (20x +160)/x < 100

  20 +160/x < 100 . . . . . separate the terms on the left

  160/x < 80 . . . . . . . subtract 20

  160/80 < x . . . . . multiply by x/80 . . . . . assumes x > 0

  x > 2 . . . . . . simplify

In interval notation this is (2, ∞).   matches choice A

__

Technically (mathematically), we also have ...

  160/80 > x . . . . and x < 0

which simplifies to x < 0, or the interval (-∞, 0).

If we include this solution, then choice C is the correct one.

_____

Comment on the solution

Since we are using x to count physical items, we want to assume that the practical domain of C(x) is whole numbers, where x ≥ 0, so this second interval is not in the domain of C(x). That is, the average cost of a negative number of items is meaningless.


One number is 2 less than a second number.
Twice the second number is 16 more than 4 times
the first. Find the two numbers.

Answers

Answer:

x = one number

y = second number

Where,

x = y - 3

2y = 4x - 16

Multiply the first equation by 2 and substitute the second equation into it.

2(x=y-3) : 2x = 2y - 6

 

2x = (4x - 16) - 6

Combine like terms

2x = 4x - 22

2x - 2x + 22 = 4x - 2x -22 + 22

22 = 2x

22/2 = 2x/2

The value of a car will “depreciate” over time. For example, a car that was worth $24 000 when it was new, is being sold for $13 500 three years later. Determine the annual depreciation rate on this car. Express your final answer as a percent, rounded to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of a car will “depreciate” over time, and, for example, a car that was worth $ 24,000 when it was new, is being sold for $ 13,500 three years later, to determine the annual depreciation rate on this car the following calculation must be performed:

13,500 x (1 + X) ^ 1x3 = 24,000

13,500 x (1 + 0.2114) ^ 3 = 24,000

X = 21.14%

Therefore, the car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of £42 is (1 +40%) times the total purchase price.

  1.40 × purchase price = £42

  purchase price = £42/1.40 = £30

The total profit is 40% of this, so is ...

  £30 × 40% = £12

The purchase price of the skirt is ...

  total cost - glove cost = skirt cost = £30 -3 = £27

The profit on the skirt is ...

  total profit - glove profit = skirt profit = £12 -100% × £3 = £9

Then the percentage profit on the skirt is ...

  skirt profit % = skirt profit / skirt cost × 100% = £9/£27 × 100% = 33.3%

The percentage profit on the cost of the skirt was 33.3%.

friction acting on the sliding box is (a) 100 N (6) 250. N?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 129600 J

(b) 81000 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is given by the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.

Force, F = 500 N

distance, d = 324 m

(a) friction force, f = 100 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) x d

W = (500 - 100) x 324

W = 129600 J

(b) Friction, f = 250 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) d

W = (500 - 250) x 324

W = 81000 J

Answer:

0.00084

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean,[tex]\mu=2400[/tex] square feet

Standard deviation, [tex]\sigma=450[/tex]square feet

n=50

We have to find the probability that a random sample of 50 homes in Anytown, USA has mean square footage less than 2200 square feet.

[tex]P(x<2200)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<P(\frac{2200-2400}{\frac{450}{\sqrt{50}}})[/tex]

[tex]P(x<2200)=P(Z<\frac{-200}{\frac{450}{\sqrt{50}}})[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]P(x<2200)=P(Z<-3.14)[/tex]

[tex]P(X<2200)=0.00084[/tex]

Hence, the probability that a random sample of 50 homes in Anytown, USA has mean square footage less than 2200 square feet=0.00084
