more thanAn engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 120

engines and the mean pressure was 5 lbs/square inch. Assume the variance is known to be 1. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 5.1 lbs/square inch, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level that the valve performs below the specifications? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario. Answer

Answer:

We accept the null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The valve was tested on 120 engines

Mean pressure = 5 lbs/square inch.

Variance = 1

Standard Deviation, σ = √1 = 1

The valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 5.1 lbs/square inch

So, μ = 5.1

Null hypothesis: H₀ : μ = 5.1

Alternative Hypothesis: H₁ : μ≠ 5.1

Since n > 30 and population standard deviation is given

So, We will use z test

Formula : z = (x - μ)/( σ /√n) ---_-_--- Substitute the values

z = \frac{5 - 5.1}{1/\sqrt{120} }

z = −1.1

The p - value of -1.1 (refer to z table) is 0.13576

Since it is a two tailed test So, p = 2(1-  0.13576) = 1.7285

α = 0.02

p value > α

So, we accept the null hypothesis

Hence There is no sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level that the valve does not performs below to the specifications

The domain is all the x-values you can use with this function. When dealing with a function like this, you need to ask yourself, what would make the bottom equal to 0? Whatever those numbers are, you do NOT want them in your domain.

A fundamental rule is that you cannot divide by 0 or have 0 as a denominator.

So, you solve x^2+6x=0 to find that x=0 or x=-6 would make the denominator 0.

The domain is everything BUT those two values, because they essentially break your function.

Classify the following triangle
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Isosceles and obtuse

Step-by-step explanation:

It is not a scalene triangle because it has two same lengths 41 degrees and 41 degrees.

<u>It is a </u>Isosceles triangle because two of the sides have the same lengths 41 degrees and 41 degrees

<u>It is an</u> obtuse triangle because it has on obtuse angle which is 98 and two acute angles that are 41 degrees

It is not an equilateral because not all of the sides are the same lengths

It is not a right triangle because there are 90 degree angles

It is not an acute triangle because not all the angles are acute angles

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Row 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean, we add all the numbers and divide by the number of numbers

Row 1:  

(6+5+3+0+4)/5 = 18/5 = 3.6

Row 2:  

(4+5+3+5+6)/5 = 23/5 = 4.6

Row 3:  

(7+1+4+5+3)/5 = 20/5 = 4.0

Row 4:  

(4+2+5+6+3)/5 = 20/5 = 4.0

The greatest mean , or the largest mean is 4.6  or Row 2
