A company wants to establish that the mean life of its batteries, when used in a wireless mouse, is over 183 days. The data will

consist of the life lengths of batteries in 64 different wireless mice.
a) Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses.

b) If the true mean is 190 days, what error can be made?

Answer:

a) Null and alternative hypotheses are:

H_{0}: mu=183 days

H_{a}: mu>183 days

b) If the true mean is 190 days, Type II error can be made.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let mu be the mean life of the batteries of the company when it is used in a wireless mouse

Null and alternative hypotheses are:

H_{0}: mu=183 days

H_{a}: mu>183 days

Type II error happens if we fail to reject the null hypothesis, when actually the alternative hypothesis is true.

That is if we conclude that mean life of the batteries of the company when it is used in a wireless mouse is at most 183 days, but actually mean life is 190 hours, we make a Type II error.

2b. Jill and Alice each sold 40 pieces of
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Jill sold more apples

1 more than Alice

Step-by-step explanation:

Jill sold 40 fruits

Alice sold 40 fruits

15% of Jill's sales is APPLES, that is:

15/100 = 0.15

0.15 * 40 = 6

Jill sold 6 apples.

Now, it is given Alice sold 5 apples.

<em>Who sold more? Of course, Jill.</em>

<em>By how much? 6 - 5 = 1 apple more</em>

Two 5-year girls, Alyse and Jocelyn, have been training to run a 1-mile race. Alyse's 1 mile time A is approximately Normally di
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

1.7 × 10⁻⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to a two sample z-test for the comparison between the means of the two samples  

The null hypothesis is H₀:  μ₁ ≤ μ₂

The alternative hypothesis is Hₐ: μ₁ > μ₂

z=\dfrac{(\bar{x}_1-\bar{x}_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu _{2} )}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_{1}^{2} }{n_{1}}-\dfrac{\sigma _{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}}

Where;

\bar {x}_1 = 13.5

\bar {x}_2 = 12

σ₁ = 2.5

σ₂ = 1.5

We set our α level at 0.05

Therefore, our critical z = ± 1.96

For n₁ = n₂ = 23, we have;

z=\dfrac{(13.5-12)-(0)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{2.5^{2} }{23}-\dfrac{1.5^{2}}{23}}} = 3.5969

We reject the null hypothesis at α = 0.05, as our z-value, 3.5969 is larger than the critical z, 1.96 or mathematically, since 3.5969 > 1.96

Therefore, there is enough statistical evidence to suggest that Alyse time is larger than Jocelyn in a 1 mile race on a randomly select day and the probability that Alyse has a larger time than Jocelyn is 0.99983

Therefore;

The probability that Alyse has a smaller time than Jocelyn is 1 - 0.99983 = 0.00017 = 1.7 × 10⁻⁴.

Two researchers are studying the decline of orangutan populations. In one study, a population of 784 orangutans is expected to d
zhuklara [117]
Step 1:
Set Variables (We will use x & y)

x = years
y = total orangutan population

Step 2:
Set up Equations

784 - 25x = y
817 - 36x = y

Step 3:
Set equations equal to each other & solve

784 - 25x = 817 - 36x
784 = 817 - 11x
-33 = -11x
3 years = x
