Production engineers at a company believe that a modified layout on its assembly lines might increase average worker productivit

y (measured in the number of units produced per hour). However, before the engineers are ready to install the revised layout officially across the entire firm’s production lines, they would like to study the modified line’s effects on output. The following data represent the average hourly production output of 6 randomly sampled employees before and after the line was modified:
Employee 1 2 3 4 5 6

Before 43 45 47 46 48 44

After 42 46 48 50 46 51

At the .05 level of significance, can the production engineers conclude that the modified (after) layout has increased worker productivity? Conduct a complete and appropriate hypothesis test.

Answer:

Let x = number of units produced per hour before the line was modified , y = number of units produced per hour after the line was modified.

The null and alternative hypotheses are :

H0: μbefore = μafter

H1: μbefore ≠ μafter

​Step 1: . Calculate the difference (D = y − x) between the two observations on each pair.

See attachment for (D=y-x)

step 2: Calculate ∑D and ∑D2

From table we get ∑D = -10 & ∑D2 = 72

Step 3: Put all the value in test statistic "t"

t = D/√nD^2-D^2/n - 1

t =-10/√6.72-(-10)^2/6-1

t= -10√66.4

= -10/8.1486

= -1.227

Step 4: Compare tcal and ttab

At α = 0.05

t0.05 for 5 d.f. = 3.1634 (two tail test)

Hence | tcal | < t0.05

So, we accept the hypothesis.

So we conclude that the modified (after) layout has not increased worker productivity at 5% level of significance.

I NEED HELP (I’m sooo dumb lol)

To make a box and whisker plot, first you write down all of the numbers from least to greatest.

0, 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10

The median is 4, so that’s the middle line of the plot.

So now we have:
0, 1, 3, [4,] 7, 8, 10

So next we have to find the 1st and 3rd interquartiles..
0, [1,] 3, [4,] 7, [8,] 10

Those are the next 2 points you put on the plot.

Lastly, the upper and lower extremes. These are the highest and lowest numbers in the data.
[0,] 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, [10]

These are the final points on the plot.

To make the box of a box-and-whisker plot, you plot the 3 Medians of the data: 1, 4, and 8, and connect those to make a box that has a line in the middle at 4.

Next, you plot the upper and lower extremes: 0 and 10, by making “whiskers” that connect to the box. So you draw a line from the extremes to the box.

3n+4 first the 7 terms
kiruha [24]

Answer:

4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Not sure if there is more to this question but here is what I assume:

We want to find the first 7 terms of this equation given 3n+4

Assuming we are starting at 0 we plug 0 in for n.

3(0) + 4 → 4

So our first answer is 4

We continue by pugging in the next numbers after that to get to the first 7 terms

3(1) + 4 → 7

3(2) + 4 → 10

3(3) + 4 → 13

3(4) + 4 → 16

3(5) + 4 → 19

3(6) + 4 → 22
