A manufacturer of chocolate chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 439.0 gram setting.

It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 47 bag sample had a mean of 433.0 grams. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Determine the decision rule. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 21.0. Enter the decision rule.

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Let \mu be the average weight of chocolate chips in each bag.

As per given , we have

H_0: \mu =439.0\\\\ H_a: \mu

Since H_a is left-tailed , so we perform a left-tailed test.

Also, the population standard deviation is known \sigm=21.0.

So we use z-test.

Test statistic : z=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqt{n}}}

Substitute given value ,\overline{x}=433.0\ , n=47,\ \sigma=21 \ , \mu=439

z=\dfrac{433-439}{\dfrac{21}{\sqrt{47}}}\approx-1.96

Significance level = 0.05

Decision rule : Reject H_0 when p-value < 0.05.

By z-table , P- value for left-tailed test  = P(z<-1.96)= 1- P(z<1.96)

[∵ P(Z<-z)=1-P(Z<z)]

= 1- 0.9750

=0.025

Since , P-value(0.025) < 0.05 , so we reject the null hypothesis.

We support the claim that the machine is underfilling the bags at 0.05 significance level .

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

perimeter = 6w

area = 2w^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we can use the variable w for width, and 2w for length perimeter would be width + width + length + length, or 6w

area is width x length or 2w^2

15 less than a number tripled is equivalent to the difference of the same number and 12
Nitella [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number

3x - 15 = (x - 12)×-4 or (12-x)×-4

3x - 15 = -4x + 48 or -48 + 4x

7x = 63, x = 9 or
