Using traditional methods, it takes 94 hours to receive a basic flying license. A new license training method using Computer Aid

ed Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique with 210 students and observed that they had a mean of 95 hours. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 5. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used to determine if the technique performs differently than the traditional method. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that the technique performs differently than the traditional method

Answer:

z=\frac{95-94}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{210}}}=2.898    

p_v =2*P(Z>2.898)=0.0038    

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is different from 94 at 5% of signficance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation    

\bar X=95 represent the sample mean    

\sigma=5 represent the population standard deviation    

n=210 sample size    

\mu_o =94 represent the value that we want to test    

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

t 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 conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is different from 94, the system of hypothesis are :    

Null hypothesis:\mu = 94    

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 94    

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic 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{95-94}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{210}}}=2.898    

P-value    

Since is a two-sided test the p value would be:    

p_v =2*P(Z>2.898)=0.0038    

Conclusion    

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is different from 94 at 5% of signficance.

225 g flour
Pachacha [2.7K]
If she needs to use 225g of flour for each cake and wants to make 18 cakes she will need 4050g (225x18=4050) of flour but she only has 360g which is obviously not enough flour. For one cake she needs 75g of sugar and since she needs to make 18 cakes she needs 1350g (75x18=1350) of sugar. She only has 135g so it’s not enough.
