A sample of 900 computer chips revealed that 58% of the chips fail in the first 1000 hours of their use. The company's promotion

al literature states that 54% of the chips fail in the first 1000 hours of their use. The quality control manager wants to test the claim that the actual percentage that fail is different from the stated percentage. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis, H0, at the 0.02 level.

Answer:

The significance level is \alpha=0.02 and \alpha/2=0.01 we want to find the decision rule. Since is a bilateral test the critical values are:

z_{\alpha/2}= \pm 2.326

And for this case the decision rule would be reject the null hypothesis if the  calculated value is:

|t_{calculated}| >2.326

And for this case the calculated value is higher than 2.326 so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level given.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=900 represent the random sample mean

\hat p=0.58 estimated proportion  of the chips fail in the first 1000 hours of their use

p_o=0.54 is the value to verify

\alpha=0.02 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

System of hypothesis

We want to test if the actual percentage that fail is different from the stated percentage, the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.54  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.54  

The statistic is given by:

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

z=\frac{0.58 -0.54}{\sqrt{\frac{0.54(1-0.54)}{900}}}=2.41  

The significance level is \alpha=0.02 and \alpha/2=0.01 we want to find the decision rule. Since is a bilateral test the critical values are:

z_{\alpha/2}= \pm 2.326

And for this case the decision rule would be reject the null hypothesis if the  calculated value is:

|t_{calculated}| >2.326

And for this case the calculated value is higher than 2.326 so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level given.

Find the area of following figure...?​
MrRa [10]

Answer:

33600 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The top and bottom horizontal sides are parallel, so this is a trapezoid with bases DC and AB. The height is BC.

area of trapezoid = (a + b)h/2

where a and b are the lengths of the bases, and h is the height.

We need to find the height, BC.

Drop a perpendicular from point A to segment DC. Call the point of intersection E. E is a point on segment DC.

DE + EC = DC

EC = AB = 360 m

DC = 600 m

DE + 360 m = 600 m

DE = 240 m

Use right triangle ADE to find AE. Then BC = AE.

DE² + AE² = AD²

DE² + 240² = 250²

DE² = 62500 - 57600

DE² = 4900

DE = √4900

DE = 70

BC = 70 = h

area = (a + b)h/2

area = (600 m + 360 m)(70 m)/2

area = 33600 m²

A group of friends wants to go to the amusement park. They have $116 to spend on parking and admission. Parking is $10.25, and t
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

2 people

Step-by-step explanation:

no. of people = x

total parking costs = 10.25x

total tickets cost = 35.25x

total = 10.25x + 35.25x

suppose 3 people go, then the total cost will be

10.25(3) + 35.25(3) = 136.5 and this is greater than 116

Suppose 2 people go then the cost will be

10.25(2) + 35.25(2) = 91 which is less than 116

so only 2 people can go.
