A manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 402 gram setting. It is

believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 25 bag sample had a mean of 393 grams with a standard deviation of 20. Assume the population is normally distributed. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

The value of t test statistics is -2.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 402 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is under filling the bags.

A 25 bag sample had a mean of 393 grams with a standard deviation of 20.

<u><em>Let </em></u>\mu<u><em> = mean filling of bags by the machine.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \geq 402 gram     {means that the the machine is not under filling the bags}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu < 402 gram     {means that the the machine is under filling the bags}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample t test statistics</u> as we don't know about the population standard deviation;

                       T.S. =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ t_n_-_1

where, \bar X = sample mean bag filling = 393 grams

            s = sample standard deviation = 20 grams

            n = sample of bags = 25

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{393-402}{\frac{20}{\sqrt{25} } }  ~ t_2_4

                               =  -2.25

The value of t test statistics is -2.25.

Nik needs to estimate how many books will fit in a bin. Each book is 0.75 feet tall, 0.75 feet wide, and 0.25 feet thick. The bi
cricket20 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

first you find the volume of a bin.

that is multiplication of 3 dimensions given.

4*4*4=64 cubic feet...

now volume of books..

0.75*0.75.0.25=0.14 cubic feet

now the number of books that will fit the bin=volume of bin/volume of books

64/0.14=455

455 books

5. Find the discriminant of 15x2 = 4x – 1 and describe
diamong [38]

Answer:

a) The discriminant of the equation =  - 44

b)The nature of the roots will be imaginary.

c) x = \frac{2 +\sqrt{11} i}{15}  or, x = \frac{2 - \sqrt{11} i}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is 15x^{2}  = 4x -1

or, 15x^{2}  -  4x + 1   = 0

Now the discriminant (D) of a quadratic equation ax^{2}  +b x + c   = 0

D = b^{2}   -  4ac  = (-4)^{2}  -  4(15) (1)  = 16 - (60) = -44

Hence, the discriminant of the equation =  - 44

As D< 0, so the roots will be imaginary.

Now,by quadratic formula : x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}  - 4ac} }{2a}

So, here x = \frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{D} }{2a}  = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{(-44 )} }{30}

So, either x = \frac{4 + \sqrt{(-44 )} }{30} or, x =  \frac{4 - \sqrt{(-44 )} }{30}

or, x = \frac{2 +\sqrt{11} i}{15}  or, x = \frac{2 - \sqrt{11} i}{15}
