A machine, when working properly, produces 5% or less defective items. Whenever the machine produces significantly greater than

5% defective items, it needs repair. A random sample of 300 items taken from the production line contained 27 defective items. Test at the 1% significance level if the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.0007 < 0.01, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis that the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

A machine, when working properly, produces 5% or less defective items.

This means that the null hypothesis is:

H_0: p \leq 0.05

Test if the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.

This means that the alternate hypothesis is:

H_a: p > 0.05

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.

0.05 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0.05, \sigma = \sqrt{0.05*0.95}

A random sample of 300 items taken from the production line contained 27 defective items.

This means that n = 300, X = \frac{27}{300} = 0.09

Value of the test statistic:

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

z = \frac{0.09 - 0.05}{\frac{\sqrt{0.05*0.95}}{\sqrt{300}}}

z = 3.18

Pvalue of the test:

Testing if the mean is greater than a value, which means that the pvalue of the test is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = 3.18, which is the probability of a finding a sample proportion of 0.09 or higher.

Looking at the Z-table, Z = 3.18 has a pvalue of 0.9993

1 - 0.9993 = 0.0007

The pvalue of the test is 0.0007 < 0.01, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis that the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.

A submarine dives at a constant speed of 10 m/s at a diving angle measured from the vertical
valina [46]

Answer:

155.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We have:</u>

θ: is the angle measured from the vertical = 75 °

v = is the speed of the submarine = 10 m/s

t = 1 min

The deep of the front end of the submarine at the end of a 1-minute drive is given by the following ratio:

cos (\theta) = \frac{x}{d}  

<u>Where:</u>

d: is the distance traveled by the submarine in 1 minute

x: is the deep to find

The distance, d, is:

d = v*t = 10 \frac{m}{s}* 1 min * \frac{60 s}{1 min} = 600 m

Now, the deep is:

cos (75) = \frac{x}{600}  

x = cos(75)*600 = 155.3 m

Therefore, the deep of the front end of the submarine at the end of a 1-minute drive is 155.3 m.

I hope it helps you!

What is the answer to this question?
sukhopar [10]
First plug in f and g:
3 x^{2} +1-  [1-x]
Then distribute 3 x^{2} +1-1+x
Combine like terms
3 x^{2} +x
Now plug in 2 for x
3( 2^{2} )+2
3(4)+2=12+2=14

Hope that helps
