The manager of the quality department for a tire manufacturing company wants to know the average tensile strength of rubber used

in making a certain brand of radial tire. She knows the population standard deviation and uses a Z test to test the null hypothesis that the mean tensile strength is 800 pounds per square inch. The calculated Z test statistic is a positive value that leads to a p-value of .047 for the test. If the significance level is .05, the null hypothesis would be rejected. Assume that the population of pressure values is normally distributed.
a) true
b) false

Answer:

a) true

Step-by-step explanation:

Decision Rule

If;

P-value > significance level --- accept Null hypothesis

P-value < significance level --- reject Null hypothesis

Z score > Z(at 95% confidence interval) ---- reject Null hypothesis

Z score < Z(at 95% confidence interval) ------ accept Null hypothesis

For the case above, the p-value for the test is 0.047 which is less than the significance level 0.05

P-value < 0.05

Using the decision rule, we will reject the Null hypothesis which is the same as stated in the question, which means its true.

_Confirmed._

A certain company manufactures skateboards and rollerskates. It takes them 2 units of labor and 1 unit of materials to produce a
Alisiya [41]

Answer: The company should produce 7 skateboards and 16 rollerskates in order to maximize profit.

Step-by-step explanation: Let the skateboards be represented by s and the rollerskates be represented by r. The available amount of labour is 30 units, and to produce a skateboard requires 2 units of labor while to produce a rollerskate requires 1 unit. This can be expressed as follows;

2s + r = 30 ------(1)

Also there are 40 units of materials available, and to produce a skateboard requires 1 unit while a rollerskate requires 2 units. This too can be expressed as follows;

s + 2r = 40 ------(2)

With the pair of simultaneous equations we can now solve for both variables by using the substitution method as follows;

In equation (1), let r = 30 - 2s

Substitute for r into equation (2)

s + 2(30 - 2s) = 40

s + 60 - 4s = 40

Collect like terms,

s - 4s = 40 - 60

-3s = -20

Divide both sides of the equation by -3

s = 6.67

(Rounded up to the nearest whole number, s = 7)

Substitute for the value of s into equation (1)

2s + r = 30

2(7) + r = 30

14 + r = 30

Subtract 14 from both sides of the equation

r = 16

Therefore in order to maximize profit, the company should produce 7 skateboards and 16 rollerskates.

In a standard normal distribution, about _________% of the scores fall above a z-score of 3.00
Katarina [22]

The normal rule to remember is 68-95-99.7, i.e. plus or minus three sigma corresponds to 99.7% of the probability. That leaves 0.3% in the two tails, or 0.15% in the tail above 3 sigma.

Answer: 0.15%
