Suppose the average lifetime of a certain type of car battery is known to be 60 months. Consider conducting a two-sided test on

it based on a sample of size 25 from a normal distribution with a population standard deviation of 4 months.a) If the true average lifetime is 62 months and a =0.01, what is the probability of a type II error?b) What is the required sample size to satisfy and the type II error probability of b(62) = 0.1?

Answer:

a. the probability of a type II  error is 0.5319

b. the required sample size to satisfy and the type II error probability  is 59.4441

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given; we have:

sample size n = 25

Population standard deviation \sigma = 4

true average lifetime = Sample Mean \bar X = 62

We can state our null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis as follows:

Null hypothesis:

\mathbf{H_o : \mu  = 60}

Alternative hypothesis

\mathbf{H_1 : \mu  \neq 60}

Where ;

∝ = 0.01

From the standard normal tables at critical value ∝ = 0.01 ; the level of significance is -2.575 lower limit and 2.575 upper limit

The z statistics for the lower limit is:

lower \ limit = \dfrac{\bar X - \mu }{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt {n}}}

-2.575= \dfrac{\bar x - 60 }{\dfrac{4}{\sqrt 25}}}

-2.575= \dfrac{\bar x - 60 }{0.8}}}

-2.575*0.8= {\bar x - 60 }{}}}

-2.06= {\bar x - 60 }{}}}

\bar x =  60-2.06

\bar x = 57.94

The z statistics for the upper limit is:

lower \ limit = \dfrac{\bar X - \mu }{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt {n}}}

2.575= \dfrac{\bar x - 60 }{\dfrac{4}{\sqrt 25}}}

2.575= \dfrac{\bar x - 60 }{0.8}}}

2.575*0.8= {\bar x - 60 }{}}}

2.06= {\bar x - 60 }{}}}

\bar x =  60-(-2.06)

\bar x =  60+2.06

\bar x =  62.06

Thus; the probability of a type II error is determined as follows:

β = P (  57.94 < \bar x  < 62.06 )

= P ( \dfrac{57.94 -62 }{\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{25}}}

= P ( \dfrac{-4.06 }{0.8}}

= P ( -5.08 < Z < 0.08 )

= P ( Z < 0.08) - P ( Z < - 5.08)

Using Excel Function: [ (=NORMDIST (0.08)) - (=NORMDIST(-5.08)) ] ; we have:

= 0.531881372 - 0.00000001887

= 0.531881183

≅ 0.5319

b.

What is the required sample size to satisfy and the type II error probability of b(62) = 0.1

Recall that:

The critical value of ∝ = 2.575  ( i. e   Z_{1 - \alpha/2 } = 2.575  )

Now ;

the critical value of β is :

Z _{1- \beta} = 1.28

The  required sample size to satisfy and the type II error probability  is therefore determined as :

n = [\dfrac{(Z_{1 - \alpha/2} + Z_{1 - \beta} ) \sigma }{\delta}]^2

n = [\dfrac{(2.575+1.28 ) 4 }{2}]^2

n = [\dfrac{(3.855 ) 4 }{2}]^2

n = [\dfrac{(15.42 ) }{2}]^2

n = 7.71 ²

n= 59.4441

Thus; the required sample size to satisfy and the type II error probability  is 59.4441

An aeroplane X whose average speed is 50°km/hr leaves kano airport at 7.00am and travels for 2 hours on a bearing 050°. It then
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

(a)123 km/hr

(b)39 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Plane X with an average speed of 50km/hr travels for 2 hours from P (Kano Airport) to point Q in the diagram.

Distance = Speed X Time

Therefore: PQ =50km/hr X 2 hr =100 km

It moves from Point Q at 9.00 am and arrives at the airstrip A by 11.30am.

Distance, QA=50km/hr X 2.5 hr =125 km

Using alternate angles in the diagram:

\angle Q=110^\circ

(a)First, we calculate the distance traveled, PA by plane Y.

Using Cosine rule

q^2=p^2+a^2-2pa\cos Q\\q^2=100^2+125^2-2(100)(125)\cos 110^\circ\\q^2=34175.50\\q=184.87$ km

SInce aeroplane Y leaves kano airport at 10.00am and arrives at 11.30am

Time taken =1.5 hour

Therefore:

Average Speed of Y

=184.87 \div 1.5\\=123.25$ km/hr\\\approx 123$ km/hr (correct to three significant figures)

(b)Flight Direction of Y

Using Law of Sines

\dfrac{p}{\sin P} =\dfrac{q}{\sin Q}\\\dfrac{125}{\sin P} =\dfrac{184.87}{\sin 110}\\123 \times \sin P=125 \times \sin 110\\\sin P=(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87\\P=\arcsin [(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87]\\P=39^\circ $ (to the nearest degree)

The direction of flight Y to the nearest degree is 39 degrees.
