An automobile manufacturer has given its van a 47.2 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted t

o test the actual MPG for this van since it is believed that the van has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 250 vans, they found a mean MPG of 47.0. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 1.9. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

Test statistic = 1.664

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ = 47.2

H1 : μ ≠ 47.2

Given that :

Sample mean, xbar = 47

Sample size, n = 250

Standard deviation, σ = 1.9

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (σ/√(n))

T = (47 - 47.2) ÷ (1.9/√(250))

T = (0.2 / 0.1201665)

Test statistic = 1.664

Avoiding an accident while driving can depend on reaction time. Suppose that reaction time, measured from the time the driver fi
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

2.5% of drivers have a reaction time more than 2.14 seconds

16% of drivers have a reaction time less than 1.78 seconds

84% of drivers have a reaction time less than 2.02 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule(68-95-99.7 rule) states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that 50% of the measures are below the mean and 50% are above.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 1.9s

Standard deviation = 0.12

What percentage of drivers have a reaction time more than 2.14 seconds?

2.14 = 1.9 + 2*0.12

So 2.14 is two standard deviations above the mean.

Of the 50% of the measures above the mean, 95% are within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so, below 2.14. The other 5% is above.

0.05*0.5 = 0.025

2.5% of drivers have a reaction time more than 2.14 seconds

What percentage of drivers have a reaction time less than 1.78 seconds?

1.78 = 1.9 - 0.12

So 1.78 is one standard deviation below the mean.

Of the 50% of the measures that are below the mean, 68% are within one standard deviation of the mean, that is, greater than 1.78.

100 - 68 = 32

0.32*50 = 0.16

16% of drivers have a reaction time less than 1.78 seconds

What percentage of drivers have a reaction time less than 2.02 seconds?

2.02 = 1.9 + 0.12

So 2.02 is one standard deviation above the mean.

Of the measures that are below the mean, all are below 2.02.

Of those that are above, 68% are below 2.02.

0.5 + 0.68*0.5 = 0.84

84% of drivers have a reaction time less than 2.02 seconds
