A production line operates with a mean filling weight of 16 ounces per container. Overfilling or underfilling presents a serious

problem and when detected requires the operator to shut down the production line to readjust the filling mechanism. From past data, a population standard deviation S=.8 ounces is assumed. A quality control in inspector selects a sample of 30 items every hour and at that time makes the decision of whether to shut down the line for readjustment. The level of significance is a = .05.- State the hypothesis test for this quality control application.- If a sample mean of xbar=16.32 ounces were found, what is the p-value ? What action would you recommend ?- If a sample mean of xbar=15.82 ounces were found, what is the p-value ? What action would you recommend ?- Use the critical value approach. What is the rejection rule for the preceding hypothesis testing procedure ? Repeat the last two parts : Do you reach the same conclusion ?

Answer:

Part1) z=\frac{16.32-16}{\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{30}}}=2.191    

p_v =2*P(Z>2.191)=0.0284

Readjustment is needed

Part 2)  z=\frac{15.82-16}{\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{30}}}=-1.232    

z=\frac{15.82-16}{\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{30}}}=-1.232    

p_v =2*P(Z

No readjustment is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

Part 1    

\bar X=16.32 represent the sample mean    

\sigma=0.8 represent the population standard deviation    

n=30 sample size    

\mu_o =16 represent the value that we want to test    

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.    

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)    

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)    

State the null and alternative hypotheses.    

We need to apply a two tailed test.    

What are H0 and Ha for this study?    

Null hypothesis:  \mu =16    

Alternative hypothesis :\mu \neq 16    

Compute the test statistic  

The statistic for this case is given by:    

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)    

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".    

Calculate the statistic    

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:    

z=\frac{16.32-16}{\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{30}}}=2.191    

Give the appropriate conclusion for the test  

Since is a two tailed test the p value would be:    

p_v =2*P(Z>2.191)=0.0284

Using the value of \alpha =0.05 we see that pv and we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Readjustment is needed

The rejection zone is given by:

(-\infty ;-1.96) , (1.96;\infty)    

Part 2

\bar X=15.82 represent the sample mean    

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:    

z=\frac{15.82-16}{\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{30}}}=-1.232    

Give the appropriate conclusion for the test  

Since is a two tailed test the p value would be:    

p_v =2*P(Z

Using the value of \alpha =0.05 we see that pv>\alpha and we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

No readjustment is needed

The rejection zone is given by:

(-\infty ;-1.96) , (1.96;\infty)  

What action would you recommend ?

Review the procedure.

Do you reach the same conclusion ?

No we got different conclusions

You multiply both sides by 9 first so you have -45=y-7. then add 7 to both sides to get y=-38

A salad made such that the difference between twice the ounces of greens and the ounces of carrots is at least 3. Also, the sum
kap26 [50]

Answer:

3rd graph down

Step-by-step explanation:

greens are x and carrots are y in my equations

2x - y >= 3

x + 2y < 4

The first equation is solid and will highlight everything to the right of it because it is a >

the second is dashed and will highlight everything to the left of it because it is a <

the only 2 graphs that show this are 1 and 3

looking at the points you can see that the points for the solid line are both the same so ignore those and go to the dashed lined ones.

on the first graph the points are (0,4)

plugging those into our equation gives us 0 + 2*4 <4

or 8<4 which doesnt make sense making 3 the correct graph

(sorry my answer wasnt posting so i had to start over and make it less detailed, but comment if you need any explanation)

If you rolled two dice what is the probability that you would roll a 4 or a 5
Masja [62]
Hello there! Given that normal dice are numbered 1-6, individually rolling a 4 or a 5 would give a 1/6 probability. That converts to about 17% as a percentage because we can multiply 1 by 100 to get 100/6, then divide 100 by 6 to get 16.6666. When rounding, that gives approximately 17%. However, if we combined probabilities, we would find that rolling a 4 or a 5 collectively gives a 2/6 probability, which is approximately 33% as a decimal.

In terms of individual probabilities, you would be 17% likely to roll one of them. In terms of collectiveness, the likelihood of rolling a 4 or 5 would render 33% on each die. If you need additional help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
