The breaking strengths of cables produced by a certain manufacturer have a mean µ, of 1850 pounds, and a standard deviation of 9

0 pounds. It is claimed that an improvement in the manufacturing process has increased the mean breaking strength. To evaluate this claim, 21 newly manufactured cables are randomly chosen and tested, and their mean breaking strength is found to be 1893 pounds. Assume that the population is normally distributed. Can we support, at the 0.05 level of significance, the claim that the mean breaking strength has increased? (Assume that the standard deviation has not changed). Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places.

Answer:

We accept H₀. We do not have argument to keep the claim that the mean breaking strength has increased

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

Population Mean   μ₀  = 1850 pounds

Standard Deviation   σ  =  90 pounds

Type of test

Null Hypothesis                         H₀     ⇒    μ  =  μ₀

Alternative Hypothesis            Hₐ      ⇒    μ > μ₀

A one tail test  (right)

n = 21  as    n  < 30  we use t-student table

degree of fredom   20  

t = 2.845

Sample mean   μ = 1893

Then, we compute t statistics

t(s)  =  [ 1893 - 1850 ] / 90/ √n

t(s)  =   43 * 4,583 / 90

t(s)  = 197,069 / 90

t(s)  =  2,190

And we compare t  and  t(s)

t(s)  =  2.190

t =  2.845

Then  t(s)  <  t

We are in the acceptance zone, we accept  H₀

Identify the volume of the composite figure rounded to the nearest tenth.
Verdich [7]

Answer:

  (c)  115.2 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a composite figure can be found by decomposing it into figures whose volumes are easy to compute. Here, the figure can be nicely represented as a cube and a square pyramid.

__

<h3>Cube</h3>

The volume of the cube on the left is given by ...

  V = s³

  V = (4.2 ft)³ = 74.088 ft³

__

<h3>Pyramid</h3>

The volume of the pyramid on the right is given by ...

  V = 1/3Bh . . . . . where B is the area of the square base

  V = 1/3(s²)h = (4.2 ft)²(7 ft) = 41.16 ft³

__

<h3>Total</h3>

The volume of the composite figure is the sum of these volumes:

  cube volume + pyramid volume = 74.088 ft³ +41.16 ft³ = 115.248 ft³

The volume of the composite figure is about 115.2 ft³.

There are two ways for finding p, here is one way:

1/2 = 4p

Multiply both sides by 2:
1 = 8p

Divide both sides by 8:
0.125 = p

Answer:
p = 0.125

Hope it helped :)
