Kisachek [45]

Answer:

(a) The probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.3888.

(b) The probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.1776.

(c) The probability that at most five must be selected to find four that are not seconds is 0.9453.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of seconds in the batch.

The probability of the random variable X is, p = 0.31.

The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n and p.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

(a)

Compute the probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets as follows:

$P(X=1)={6\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{6-1}\\=6\times 0.13\times 0.4984\\=0.3888$

Thus, the probability that only one goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.3888.

(b)

Compute the probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets as follows:

P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)

$=1-{6\choose 0}0.13^{0}(1-0.13)^{6-0}-{6\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{6-1}\\=1-0.4336+0.3888\\=0.1776$

Thus, the probability that at least two goblet is a second among six randomly selected goblets is 0.1776.

(c)

If goblets are examined one by one then to find four that are not seconds we need to select either 4 goblets that are not seconds or 5 goblets including only 1 second.

P (4 not seconds) = P (X = 0; n = 4) + P (X = 1; n = 5)

$={4\choose 0}0.13^{0}(1-0.13)^{4-0}+{5\choose 1}0.13^{1}(1-0.13)^{5-1}\\=0.5729+0.3724\\=0.9453$

Thus, the probability that at most five must be selected to find four that are not seconds is 0.9453.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

$t=\frac{25000-210000}{\frac{37500}{\sqrt{5}}}=2.37$

$p_v =P(t_{4}>2.37)=0.038$

If we compare the p value and a significance level assumed $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and the actual true mean is higher than 210250 at 5% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=250000$ represent the sample mean

$s=37500$ represent the standard deviation for the sample

$n=5$ sample size

$\mu_o =210250$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.1$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses to be tested

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is higher than 210250, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 210250$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 210250$

Compute the test statistic

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{25000-210000}{\frac{37500}{\sqrt{5}}}=2.37$

Now we need to find the degrees of freedom for the t distirbution given by:

$df=n-1=5-1=4$

Conclusion

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{4}>2.37)=0.038$

If we compare the p value and a significance level assumed $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and the actual true mean is higher than 210250 at 5% of significance.
