Question

A production manager at a wall clock company wants to test their new wall clocks. The designer claims they have a mean life of 1515 years with a variance of 2525. If the claim is true, in a sample of 4141 wall clocks, what is the probability that the mean clock life would differ from the population mean by more than 0.40.4 years

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer will be "0.3043".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

$\mu = 15$

$n=41$

$\sigma^2=25$

then,

$\sigma=5$

If researchers know representative sample n > 30 and default deviation those who use z-test

∴  $P(x>15.4)$

⇒  $1-P(x$

⇒  $1-P(\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$

⇒  $1-P(Z$

⇒  $1-0.695762$

⇒  $0.3043$
