Two types of plastics are suitable for an electronics component manufacturer to use. The breaking strength of this plastic is im

portant. It is known that the standard deviations of the two types of plastics are the same, with a value of 1.0 psi. From a random sample of 10 and 12 for type 1 and type 2 plastics, respectively, we obtain sample means of 162.5 and 155. The company will not adopt plastic 1 unless its mean breaking strength exceeds that of plastic 2 by at least 10 psi.
(a) Based on the sample information, should it use plastic 1? Use α = 0.05 in reaching a decision. find the P-value.

(b) Calculate a 95% confidence interval on the difference in means. Suppose that the true difference in means is really 12 psi.

(c) Find the power of the test assuming that α = 0.05.

(d) If it is really important to detect a difference of 12 psi, are the sample sizes employed in part (a) adequate, in your opinion?

Answer:

a. We fail reject to the null hypothesis because zo = -5.84 < 1.65 = zα and P-value = 1 (approximately)

b. The confidence Interval for u1 - u2 is; 6.79 ≤ u1 - u2

c. The power of the test = 1 -

β = 0.998736

d. The sample size is adequate because the power of the test is approximately 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Standard Deviations; σ1 = σ2 = 1.0 psi

Size: n1 = 10; n2 = 12

X = 162.5; Y = 155.0

Let X1, X2....Xn be a random sample from Population 1

Let Y1, Y2....Yn be a random sample from Population 2

We assume that both population are normal and the two are independent.

Therefore, the test statistic

Z = (X - Y - (u1 - u2))/√(σ1²/n1 + σ2²/n2)

From 1985 to 2007, the number B B of federally insured banks could be approximated by B ( t ) = − 329.4 t + 13747 B(t)=-329.4t+1
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

12100

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number B of federally insured banks could be approximated by B ( t ) = − 329.4 t + 13747 from 1985 to 2007 where t = 0 correspond to year 1985

In order to determine the amount of federally insured banks that were there in 1990, we will first calculate the year range from initial time 1985 till 1990

The amount of time during this period is 5years. Substituting t = 5 into the modeled equation will give;

B ( t ) = − 329.4 t + 13747

B(5) = -329.4(5) + 13747

B(5) = -1647+13747

B(5) = 12100

This shows that there will be 12100 federally insured banks are there in the year 1990.
