The heat evolved in calories per gram of a cement mixture is approximately normally distributed. The mean is thought to be 100,

and the standard deviation is 2. You wish to test H0: μ = 100 versus H1: μ ≠ 100 with a sample of n = 9 specimens.
A. If the acceptance region is defined as 98.5 le x- 101.5, find the type I error probability alpha.
B. Find beta for the case where the true mean heat evolved is 103.
C. Find beta for the case where the true mean heat evolved is 105. This value of beta is smaller than the one found in part (b) above. Why?

Answer:

A.the type 1 error probability is \mathbf{\alpha = 0.0244 }

B. β  = 0.0122

C. β  = 0.0000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean = 100

standard deviation = 2

sample size = 9

The null and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

\mathtt{H_o: \mu = 100}

\mathtt{H_1: \mu \neq 100}

A. If the acceptance region is defined as 98.5 <  \overline x >  101.5 , find the type I error probability \alpha .

Assuming the critical region lies within \overline x < 98.5 or \overline x > 101.5, for a type 1 error to take place, then the sample average x will be within the critical region when the true mean heat evolved is \mu = 100

∴

\mathtt{\alpha = P( type  \ 1  \ error ) = P( reject \  H_o)}

\mathtt{\alpha = P( \overline x < 98.5 ) + P( \overline x > 101.5  )}

when  \mu = 100

\mathtt{\alpha = P \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} < \dfrac{\overline 98.5 - 100}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}} \end {pmatrix} + \begin {pmatrix}P(\dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}  > \dfrac{101.5 - 100}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}} \end {pmatrix} }

\mathtt{\alpha = P ( Z < \dfrac{-1.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}} ) + P(Z  > \dfrac{1.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}}) }

\mathtt{\alpha = P ( Z  2.25) }

\mathtt{\alpha = P ( Z

From the standard normal distribution tables

\mathtt{\alpha = 0.0122+( 1-  0.9878) })

\mathtt{\alpha = 0.0122+( 0.0122) })

\mathbf{\alpha = 0.0244 }

Thus, the type 1 error probability is \mathbf{\alpha = 0.0244 }

B. Find beta for the case where the true mean heat evolved is 103.

The probability of type II error is represented by β. Type II error implies that we fail to reject null hypothesis \mathtt{H_o}

Thus;

β = P( type II error) - P( fail to reject \mathtt{H_o} )

∴

\mathtt{\beta = P(98.5 \leq \overline x \leq  101.5)           }

Given that \mu = 103

\mathtt{\beta = P( \dfrac{98.5 -103}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}} \leq \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{n}} \leq \dfrac{101.5-103}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}}) }

\mathtt{\beta = P( \dfrac{-4.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}} \leq Z \leq \dfrac{-1.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}}) }

\mathtt{\beta = P(-6.75 \leq Z \leq -2.25) }

\mathtt{\beta = P(z< -2.25) - P(z < -6.75 )}

From standard normal distribution table

β  = 0.0122 - 0.0000

β  = 0.0122

C. Find beta for the case where the true mean heat evolved is 105. This value of beta is smaller than the one found in part (b) above. Why?

\mathtt{\beta = P(98.5 \leq \overline x \leq  101.5)           }

Given that \mu = 105

\mathtt{\beta = P( \dfrac{98.5 -105}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}} \leq \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{n}} \leq \dfrac{101.5-105}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}}) }

\mathtt{\beta = P( \dfrac{-6.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}} \leq Z \leq \dfrac{-3.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}}) }

\mathtt{\beta = P(-9.75 \leq Z \leq -5.25) }

\mathtt{\beta = P(z< -5.25) - P(z < -9.75 )}

From standard normal distribution table

β  = 0.0000 - 0.0000

β  = 0.0000

The reason why the value of beta is smaller here is that since the difference between the value for the true mean and the hypothesized value increases, the probability of type II error decreases.

All of the following are ways to write 25 percent of N EXCEPT 0.25N 25N/100 1/4N 25N
Olin [163]
The last one would be incorrect. We are looking for PART of whatever N is. Multiply by the whole number 25 is definitely not what we want to do. 

Hope I helped!

- 7(2-1) = 28<br> The solution is?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Is there a x somewhere or is that litteraly how the equation is?

If so, -7 multiplied by 2 is -14,

-1 times -7 is 7,

add it together and you get

-7=28,

you could add 7 to both sides or subtract 28 from both sides and you'll get either 0=35 or -35=0

which would make the solution false since both sides are not the same
