Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The second and third functions both decrease with a slope of -4, but the second fiction has a y intercept of -3 and the third has a y intercept of +3. The first and fourth functions are both increasing with a slope of positive 4. The first one has a y intercept of -3, but the fourth has a y- intercept of -3. all of the functions are linear.
it helps to write all as equations
Answer:
(A) T-stat = 1.82
(B) Critical value is 1.645
(C) Yes, there is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis using a 0.05 significance level.
Step-by-step explanation:
(A) T-stat (z) = (sample mean - population mean) ÷ sd/√n
sample mean = 3850 bus miles
population mean = 3800 bus miles
sd = 275 bus miles
n = 100
z = (3850 - 3800) ÷ 275/√100 = 50 ÷ 275/10 = 50 ÷ 27.5 = 1.82
(B) The test is a one-tailed test. The critical value is obtained from the standard normal distribution table. The critical value using a 0.05 significance level is 1.645
(C) Null hypothesis: The bus mechanical reliability is 3850 bus miles.
Alternate hypothesis: The bus mechanical reliability is less than 3850 bus miles.
Conclusion:
There is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis because the test statistic (1.82) is greater than the critical value (1.645)
