1. A manufacturer claims that the mean lifetime of its fluorescent bulbs is 1500 hours. A homeowner selects 40 bulbs and finds t

he mean lifetime to be 1480 hours with a population standard deviation of 80 hours. Test the manufacturer's claim. Use alpha equal to 0.05. State the sample mean and the population standard deviation.
2. Using problem in number 1. Choose the correct hypotheses.
3. Using the problem in number 1. State the critical value(s).
4. Using the problem in number 1. State the Test Statistics.

A.) -1.96
B.) -2.00
C.) 1.58
D.) -1.58

5. Using the problem in number 1. State the decision.

A.) fail to reject Ha
B.) Reject H0
C.) Reject Ha
D.) fail to reject H0

6. Using the problem in number 1. State the conclusion.

A.) There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean lifetime of its fluorescent bulbs is 1500 hours.
B.) There is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean lifetime of its fluorescent bulbs is 1500 hours.
C.) There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that the mean lifetime of its fluorescent bulbs is 1500 hours.
D.) There is enough evidence to reject the claim that the mean lifetime of its fluorescent bulbs is 1500 hours.

Answer:

(1) Sample mean is 1480 hours and population standard deviation is 80 hours

(2) Null hypothesis: The mean lifetime of its fluorescent bulbs is 1500 hours

Alternate hypothesis: The mean lifetime of its fluorescent bulbs is less than 1500 hours

(3) 1.645

(4) D

(5) B

(6) A

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) From the population parameter, the sample mean is 1480 hours and population standard deviation is 80 hours

(2) The null hypothesis is statement deduced from the population parameter which is tested to be true or false

The alternate hypothesis is also a statement from the population parameter that negates the null hypothesis

(3) Using the standard normal distribution table, the critical value of one tailed test with significance level of 0.05 is 1.645

(4) Z = (sample mean - population mean)/(sd/√n)

sample mean = 1480, population mean = 1500, sd = 80, n = 40

Z = (1480 - 1500)/(80/√40) = -20/12.65 = -1.58

(5) The null hypothesis is rejected because the test statistic -1.58 is less than the critical value 1.645

(6) There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean lifetime of its fluorescent bulbs is 1500 hours because the null hypothesis is rejected

Hello does anyone know how to solve this?
Radda [10]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:    2 ^ -4  ( = 1/16)

Discussion:

- 4 log {8} 2            {8} is used instead of subscript notation


Basic property of logarithms is that exponents become multipliers and vice versa:


-4 log {8} 2 =  log {8}   (2^ -4)



Thank you,

MrB

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Next, in 1630, the Puritans used the royal charter establishing the Massachusetts Bay Company to create a government in which “freemen”—white males who owned property and paid taxes and thus could take on the responsibility of governing—elected a governor and a single legislative body called the Great and General Court ...

In a recent baseball season, Ron was hit by pitches 21 times in 602 plate appearances during the regular season. Assume that the
ozzi

Answer:

the probability that Ron will get hit by a pitch exactly once is 36.71%

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X= number of times Ron is hits by pitches in 23 plate appearances  follows ,a binomial distribution. Where

P(X=x) = n!/(x!*(n-x)!)*p^x*(1-p)^x

where

n= plate appearances =23

p= probability of being hit by pitches = 21/602

x= number of successes=1

then replacing values

P(X=1) = 0.3671 (36.71%)
