A manufacturer considers his production process to be out of control when defects exceed 3%. In a random sample of 100 items, th

e defect rate is 4% but the manager claims that this is only a sample fluctuation and production is not really out of control. At the 0.01 level of significance, test the manager's claim.

Answer:

The p-value of the test is of 0.2776 > 0.01, which means that the we accept the null hypothesis, that is, the manager's claim that this is only a sample fluctuation and production is not really out of control.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer considers his production process to be out of control when defects exceed 3%.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the production process is in control, that is, the defective proportion is of 3% or less. So

H_0: p \leq 0.03

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the production process is out of control, that is, the defective proportion exceeds 3%. So

H_1: p > 0.03

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.03 is tested at the null hypothesis

This means that \mu = 0.03, \sigma = \sqrt{0.03*0.97}

In a random sample of 100 items, the defect rate is 4%.

This means that n = 100, X = 0.04

Value of the test statistic:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{0.04 - 0.03}{\frac{\sqrt{0.03*0.97}}{\sqrt{100}}}

z = 0.59

P-value of the test

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion above 0.04, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 0.59.

Looking at the z-table, z = 0.59 has a p-value of 0.7224

1 - 0.7224 = 0.2776

The p-value of the test is of 0.2776 > 0.01, which means that the we accept the null hypothesis, that is, the manager's claim that this is only a sample fluctuation and production is not really out of control.

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = -2/3x + 4 and that passes through (–2,–2)?
Rama09 [41]

Answer:  y = 3/2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:  For a perpendicular line, take the reciprocal of  "m"  and reverse the sign.

- 2/3 becomes +3/2

Then substitute the y and x values of the given coordinate into the equation and solve for "b"

y = mx + b

-2 = 3/2(-2) + b

-2 = -3 + b

-2 +3 = b

+1 = b   Substitute for b in y = (3/2)x + 1

In each of problems 5 through 11, find the general solution of the given differential equation
Brrunno [24]

The complete question is

"Find the general solution of the given differential equation

y''-y=0, y1(t)=e^t , y2(t)=cosht

The function y(t)=e^t  is the solution of the given differential equation.

The function y(t)=cosht is the solution of given differential equation.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

The function is a type of relation, or rule, that maps one input to specific single output.

Given;

y_1(t) = e^t

Given differential equations are,

y''-y = 0

 So that,  

y' (t) = e^t, y'' (t) = e^t

Substitute values in the given differential equation.

e^t -e^t=0

                   

Therefore, the function y(t)=e^t  is the solution of the given differential equation.

Another function;

y(t)=cosht  

So that,  

y"(t)=sinht\\\\y"(t)=cosht

Hence, function y(t)=cosht is solution of given differential equation.

Explain how modeling partial products can be used to find the products of greater numbers.
beks73 [17]
<span>It is easier to multiply. For example: 63 multiply by 7
</span><span>63 x 7 = (60+3) x 7 =  60 x 7 + 3 x 7 =  420 + 21  =  441
</span>
Another example : <span>25 x 73
</span>25 x 73 = (20+5) x (70+3) = 20 x 70 + 20x3 + 5x70 + 5x3

                                         = 1400 + 60 + 350 + 15           =  1875
