A design engineer wants to construct a sample mean chart for controlling the service life of a halogen headlamp his company produces. He knows from numerous previous samples that this service life is normally distributed with a mean of 500 hours and a standard deviation of 20 hours. On three recent production batches, he tested service life on random samples of four headlamps, with these results:
Sample Service Life (hours)
1 495 500 505 500
2 525 515 505 515
3 470 480 460 470
1) What is the sample mean service life for sample 2?
A. 495 Hours
B. 460 Hours
C. 500 Hours
D. 515 Hours
E. 525 Hours
2) What is the mean of the sampling distribution of sample means when the service life is in control?
A. 250 Hours
B. 470 Hours
C. 515 Hours
D. 495 Hours
E. 500 Hours
3) What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means for whenever service life is in control?
A. 20 Hours
B. 10 Hours
C. 11.55 Hours
D. 5 Hours
E. 6.67 Hours
4) If he uses upper and lower control limits of 520 and 480 hours, what is his risk (alpha) of concluding that service life is out of control when it is actually under control (Type I error)?
A. 0.0026
B. 0.3174
C. 0.6826
D. 0.0456
E. 0.9544
5) If he uses upper and lower control limits of 520 and 480 hours, on what sample(s) (if any) does service life appear to be out of control?
A. sample 1
B. sample 2
C. sample 3
D. both samples 2 and 3
E. all samples are in control
Answer:
1) 515 hours ( D )
2) 495 hours ( D )
3) 10 hours ( B )
4) 0.0456 ( D )
5) sample 3 ( C )
Explanation:
Standard deviation = 20 hours
Mean = 500 hours
1) Determine the sample mean service life for sample 2
Sample mean sample service life of sample 2 = Average of service life of sample 2
= ( 525 + 515 + 505 + 515 ) / 4
= 2060 / 4 = 515
2) Calculate the mean of sampling distribution of sample means
∑ mean service life samples / 3 ----- ( 1 )
sample 1 = (495 + 500 + 505 + 500 ) / 4 = 500
sample 2 = ( 525 + 515 + 505 + 515 ) / 4 = 515
sample 3 = (470 + 480 + 460 + 470) = 470
back to equation 1
= ( 500 + 515 + 470 ) / 3 = 495
3) Determine STD of sampling distribution of sample means
Std = 20
n = 4
∴ std of sampling distribution = 20 / √4 = 10 hours
4) calculating the risk alpha
upper control ( UCL ) = 520 , lower control ( LCL ) = 480
mean = 500
Z value for upper control = ( 520 - 500) / 10 = 2
Z value for lower control = ( 480 - 500 ) / 10 = -2
confidence level of -2 and 2 ( using z-table ) = 0.9544
∴ risk alpha = 1 - 0.9544 = 0.0456
5) Service life appears to be out of control in ; sample 3
UCL = 520 , LCL = 480
Because mean value of sample 3 = 470 lies outside the lower control limit

The Central bank hopes to make more money available for loans. Thus, option C is correct.
What is a Central bank?The primary goals of central banks are to stabilize prices, increase employment, and support a nation's economic expansion. Experts concur that central banks function best when they are credible, or trusted, independently from government authorities and free from political influence, and explicit about their objectives and procedures.
In order to encourage banks to lend out additional amounts of their funds, the Fed may lower the discount rate, enabling borrowing money from other financial institutions easier or less expensive for banks if their cash reserves go too small. Banks grant more money when their discount rate is lower, which expands the fund's supply.
Therefore, option C is correct.

- astronauts wear a special suit while going to space
pls pls really need help
anyone five markss
Answer:
Why blood oozes out when there is a slight cut:
The body has many blood vessels that carry blood to and from the heart. Some of these blood vessels are very close to the skin. When we have a slight cut, the cut damages these blood vessels and so the blood they are carrying comes out of the wound.
This will be stopped when platelets form blood clots which then trapped blood cells and stop the bleeding.

Answer:
hope this help u
Explanation:
Transferring energy into or out of a substance changes its temperature, which changes the molecules' freedom of movement. Claim 2: Transferring energy into or out of a substance changes the molecules' kinetic energy, which changes their freedom of movement.
The most important thing about the transferring of energy can be found in the substances and the objects of concern. The energy of a substance comes to the fore because the main reason is transferring energy from the stagnant to a moving object is known as the transfer of the items and can be done by changing the substance as well as the movement of the energy.
What is a transfer of Energy?
Transfer of energy takes place when suppose an object is being forced to do anything. Supposedly if the object was in a space of stagnation then it can very well or divergently be known as the main thing.
The transfer of energy leads to the change in temperature of one thing to the other which leads to the change or the shift in the motion of certain beings. This is known as Kinetic Energy. When the molecules are readily in motion, during the process of the transfer of energy then it is called Kinetic Energy.
It is the Kinetic Energy of a substance that leads to the change in the temperature of a moving object and the transfer of power is the main reason behind it.
