Answer:
(a) Customer will not purchase the light bulbs at significance level of 0.05
(b) Customer will purchase the light bulbs at significance level of 0.01 .
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Light bulbs of a certain type are advertised as having an average lifetime of 750 hours. A random sample of 50 bulbs was selected, and the following information obtained:
Average lifetime = 738.44 hours and a standard deviation of lifetimes = 38.2 hours.
Let Null hypothesis, :
= 750 {means that the true average lifetime is same as what is advertised}
Alternate Hypothesis, :
< 750 {means that the true average lifetime is smaller than what is advertised}
Now, the test statistics is given by;
T.S. = ~
where, X bar = sample mean = 738.44 hours
s = sample standard deviation = 38.2 hours
n = sample size = 50
So, test statistics = ~
= -2.14
(a) Now, at 5% significance level, t table gives critical value of -1.6768 at 49 degree of freedom. Since our test statistics is less than the critical value of t, so which means our test statistics will lie in the rejection region and we have sufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis.
Therefore, we conclude that the true average lifetime is smaller than what is advertised and so consumer will not purchase the light bulbs.
(b) Now, at 1% significance level, t table gives critical value of -2.405 at 49 degree of freedom. Since our test statistics is higher than the critical value of t, so which means our test statistics will not lie in the rejection region and we have insufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis.
Therefore, we conclude that the true average lifetime is same as what it has been advertised and so consumer will purchase the light bulbs.
Question:
Consider the sequence of numbers:
Which statement is a description of the sequence?
(A) The sequence is recursive, where each term is 1/4 greater than its preceding term.
(B) The sequence is recursive and can be represented by the function
f(n + 1) = f(n) + 3/8 .
(C) The sequence is arithmetic, where each pair of terms has a constant difference of 3/4 .
(D) The sequence is arithmetic and can be represented by the function
f(n + 1) = f(n)3/8.
Answer:
Option B:
The sequence is recursive and can be represented by the function
Explanation:
A sequence of numbers are
Let us first change mixed fraction into improper fraction.
To find the pattern of the sequence.
To find the common difference between the sequence of numbers.
Therefore, the common difference of the sequence is 3.
That means each term is obtained by adding to the previous term.
Hence, the sequence is recursive and can be represented by the function
