An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 240240 engin

es and the mean pressure was 7.57.5 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population standard deviation is 1.01.0. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 7.67.6 psi. It is believed that the valve does not perform to the specifications. A level of significance of 0.10.1 will be used. Find the P-value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answer:

p-value = 0.1213  (to 4-decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

N = 240

mean  = 7.5

s = 1.0

Solution

With N=240 and using the central limit theorem, distribution can be approximated as normal.

Let

Null hypothesis H0, mu = 7.6

Alternate hypothesis, mu not equal to 7.6  (two-tail test)

for

Alpha = 0.1 (two sided)

Z = sqrt(N)(mean – mu)/s = sqrt(240)(7.5-7.6)/1.0 = -1.54919

p-value  

= P(|Z|>1.54919)  

= 2P(Z>1.54919)

= 2(1-P(Z<1.54919)

=2(1-0.9393)     (using normal distribution table)

=0.12134

Since alpha = 0.1 < p-value (0.1213), H0 that mean = 7.6 is not rejected.

The population standard deviation of the numbers 3, 8, 12, 17, and 25 is 7.563 correct to 3 decimal places. what happens if each

Let's figure this out as though we have no idea what the answer would be.

Step One
Find the new five numbers.
3*3, 8*3, 12*3, 17*3, 25*3
9 , 24 , 36, 51, 75

Step 2
Find the average
(9 + 24 + 36 + 51 + 75)/5 = 195/5 = 39

Step 3
Subtract the individual numbers from the average
(39 - 9) = 30
(39 -24) = 15
(39 - 36) = 3
(39 - 51) = - 12
(39 - 75) = -36

Step 4 
Square the results from Step 3
30^2 = 900
15^2 = 225
3^2 = 9
(-12)^2 = 144
(-36)^2 = 1296

Step 5
Take the average of the results from step 4
(900 + 225 + 9 + 144 + 1296)/5
2574 / 5 = 514.8

Step 6
Take the square root of the result from step 5
deviation = sqrt(514.8)
deviation = 22.689

Step seven 
Compare the two standard deviations.
s2/s1 = 22.689 / 7.563 = 3

Conclusion
If you are given 1 set of numbers to find a population standard deviation and you multiply each member by a, then the result will be a * the standard population deviation of the first set of numbers.

Note
Your calculator will do this as well, but you have to know how to enter the data into your calculator. That requires that you follow the directions carefully.
