Calibrating a scale:

Mathematics
1 answer:
lana66690 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

We conclude that the calibration point is set too high.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ =  1000 grams

Sample mean, \bar{x} =  1001.1 grams

Sample size, n = 50

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 2.8 grams

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 1000\text{ grams}\\H_A: \mu > 1000\text{ grams}

We use One-tailed(right) z test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }

Putting all the values, we have

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{ 1001.1 - 1000}{\frac{2.8}{\sqrt{50}} } = 2.778

Now, z_{critical} \text{ at 0.01 level of significance } = 2.326

Since,  

z_{stat} > z_{critical}

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. We accept the alternate hypothesis. We conclude that the calibration point is set too high.

The slope of the line is “rise over run.” That’s the vertical change between the two points (the difference in the y-coordinates) divided by the horizontal change over the same segment (the difference in the x-coordinates).
