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.

The perimeter of a rectangular playground is 46m. If the length of the park is 7m, what is the width of the park?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

16m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length of the park is 7m, then the other side is also 7m so 46-14 is 32. So 32/2 is 16.

Question 8 -
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Her wage on the 8th day is $105 ⇒ answer d

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Lets explain how to solve the problem</em>

- The average of set of data = The sum of data/the number of data

- The sum of data = the average of set of data × the number of data

∵ Cindy worked for 15 consecutive days

∵ She is earning an average wage of $91 per day

∴ Her total earning = 91 × 15 = $1365

∵ Her average earning during the first 7 days is $87 per day

∴ Her total earning in the first 7 days = 87 × 7 = $609

∵ Her average earning during the last 7 days is $93 per day

∴ Her total earning in the last 7 days = 93 × 7 = $651

- Her total earning in the 14 days is the sum of the earning in the

 first 7 days and the earning during the last 7 days

∵ Her total earning in the 14 days = 609 + 651 = $1260

∵ Her total earning in the 15 days is $1365

- To find her wage on the 8th day subtract her wage of the 14 days

  from her wage of the 15 days

∴ Her wage on the 8th day = 1365 - 1260 = $105

* Her wage on the 8th day is $105
