tester [92]

Suppose a local manufacturing company claims their production line has a variance of less than 9.0. A quality control engineer d

ecides to test this claim by sampling 35 parts. She finds that the standard deviation of the sample is 2.12. Is this enough evidence at the 1% level of significance, to accept the manufacturing companies claim?

Answer:

\chi^2 =\frac{35-1}{9} 2.12^2 =16.979

p_v =P(\chi^2

If we compare the p value and the significance level provided we see that p_v so on this case we have enough evidence in order to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level provided. And that means that the population variance is significantly lower than 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and previous concepts

A chi-square test is "used to test if the variance of a population is equal to a specified value. This test can be either a two-sided test or a one-sided test. The two-sided version tests against the alternative that the true variance is either less than or greater than the specified value"

n=35 represent the sample size

\alpha=0.01 represent the confidence level  

s =2.12 represent the sample deviation obtained

\sigma_0 =3 represent the value that we want to test

Null and alternative hypothesis

On this case we want to check if the population variance specification is lower than 9 and the deviation lower than 3, so the system of hypothesis would be:

Null Hypothesis: \sigma^2 \geq 9

Alternative hypothesis: \sigma^2

Calculate the statistic  

For this test we can use the following statistic:

\chi^2 =\frac{n-1}{\sigma^2_0} s^2

And this statistic is distributed chi square with n-1 degrees of freedom. We have eveything to replace.

\chi^2 =\frac{35-1}{9} 2.12^2 =16.979

Calculate the p value

In order to calculate the p value we need to have in count the degrees of freedom , on this case df= n-1= 35-1=34. And since is a left tailed test the p value would be given by:

p_v =P(\chi^2

In order to find the p value we can use the following code in excel:

"=CHISQ.DIST(16.979,34,TRUE)"

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level provided we see that p_v so on this case we have enough evidence in order to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level provided. And that means that the population variance is significantly lower than 9

Angelina_Jolie [31]
To find the he dividend per share of stock,we can divide the dividends by the total amount of
share:

120000÷40000
=$3

If Tim Worker owns 45 shares of stock, his share of the declared dividends would be:

3×45
=$135

Hope it helps!

How do I solve surface area​
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area is the sum of the areas of all faces (or surfaces) on a 3D shape. A cuboid has 6 rectangular faces. To find the surface area of a cuboid, add the areas of all 6 faces. We can also label the length (l), width (w), and height (h) of the prism and use the formula, SA=2lw+2lh+2hw, to find the surface area.
