Number of returns = 47
Number of returns that contain errors = 5
Number of returns that does not contain error = 47 - 5 = 42

P(selecting none that contains error in the unreplaced selection) = 42/47 x 41/46 x 40/45 = 68880 / 97290 = 0.708

option C is the correct answer.

The thickness of eight pads designed for use in aircraft engine mounts are measured. The results, in mm, are 41.8, 40.9, 42.1, 4
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

We accept H₀ we don´t have enough evidence to support that the mean thickness is greater than 41 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample Information:

Results:

41.8

40.9

42.1

41.2

40.5

41.1

42.6

40.6

From the table we get:

sample mean :  x  =  41.35

sample standard deviation    s = 0.698

Hypothesis Test:

Null Hypothesis                    H₀                x = 41

Alternative Hypothesis        Hₐ                x > 41

The test is a one-tail test

If significance level is  0.01 and n = 8  we need to use t-student distribution

From t-table  α = 0.01  and degree of freedom  df = n - 1  df = 8 - 1

df = 7    t(c) = 2.998

To calculate t(s)  =  (  x  -  41 ) / s/√n

t(s)  =  (  41.35  -  41 ) / 0.698/√8

t(s)  = 0.35 * 2.83/ 0.698

t(s) = 1.419

Comparing   t(s)  and t(c)

t(s) < t(c)

t(s) is in the acceptance region we accept H₀

Researchers investigated the effectiveness of oral zinc, as compared to a placebo, in reducing the found those taking oral durat
MaRussiya [10]

Answer: none of the above

Step-by-step explanation: when performing an hypothesis test and we want to make conclusion by comparing the p-value with the level of significance α

When p is greater than α, we reject the null hypothesis because it simply implies that we have a larger chance to commit a type 1 error ( α is the probability of committing a type 1 error an error where we reject the null hypothesis instead of accepting it ) which means we reject the null hypothesis.

When p is lesser than level of significance α, it means that we have a lesser chance of committing a type 1 error, which means we accept the null hypothesis.
