The diameter of steel rods manufactured on two different extrusion machines is being investigated. Two random samples of sizes

Mathematics

devlian [24]3 years ago

Answer:

(a) There is no evidence to support the claim that the two machines produce rods with different mean diameters.

P-value is 0.818

(b) 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean rod diameter is (-0.17, 0.27).

This interval shows that the difference in mean is between -0.17 and 0.27.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Null hypothesis: The two machines produce rods with the same mean diameter.

Alternate hypothesis: The two machines produce rods with different mean diameter.

Machine 1

mean = 8.73

variance = 0.35

n1 = 15

Machine 2

mean = 8.68

variance = 0.4

n2 = 17

pooled variance = [(15-1)0.35 + (17-1)0.4] ÷ (15+17-2) = 11.3 ÷ 30 = 0.38

Test statistic (t) = (8.73 - 8.68) ÷ sqrt[0.38(1/15 + 1/17)] = 0.05 ÷ 0.218 = 0.23

degree of freedom = n1+n2-2 = 15+17-2 = 30

Significance level = 0.05 = 5%

Critical values corresponding to 30 degrees of freedom and 5% significance level are -2.042 and 2.042.

Conclusion:

Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the test statistic 0.23 falls within the region bounded by the critical values -2.042 and 2.042.

There is no evidence to support the claim that the two machines produce rods with different mean diameters.

Cumulative area of test statistic is 0.5910

The test is a two-tailed test.

P-value = 2(1 - 0.5910) = 2×0.409 = 0.818

(b) Difference in mean = 8.73 - 8.68 = 0.05

pooled sd = sqrt(pooled variance) = sqrt(0.38) = 0.62

Critical value (t) = 2.042

E = t×pooled sd/√n1+n2 = 2.042×0.62/√15+17 = 0.22

Lower limit of difference in mean = 0.05 - 0.22 = -0.17

Upper limit of difference in mean = 0.05 + 0.22 = 0.27

95% confidence interval for the difference in mean rod diameter is between a lower limit of -0.17 and an upper limit of 0.27.

The slope of the function is $400.

<h3 /><h3>Definition of slope of a function</h3>

The slope of a function is the rate of change of the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable. The equation that represents a function is: y = mx + b

Where:

  • y = dependent variable
  • m = independent variable
  • x = slope
  • b = constant

Looking at the total money raised, the amount of money increases by 400. This is the slope.

B.) Hibiscus Street 

The key thing to remember is the slope of the lines. The equation for a line in slope intercept form is
y = ax + b
where
a = slope
b = y intercept

So the equation for Oak Street is y = 2/3x - 7. So it's slope is 2/3. And any street that has the same slope will be given a tree name. And any street that's perpendicular will be given a flower name. You can determine is a line is perpendicular if it has a slope that's the negative reciprocal. So a street that's perpendicular to Oak street will have a slope of -3/2.

Now you've just been given the equation to a new street that's y = -3/2x - 2. Since the slope is -3/2 and Oak street has a slope of 2/3, the new street is perpendicular to Oak street. And given the naming scheme, that means that the new street will have the name of a flower. So let's look at the available street names and pick a flower.
<span>
A.) Weeping Willow Street
* Nope a Weeping Willow is a tree. So this name won't work.
 
B.) Hibiscus Street 
* Yes. A Hibiscus is a flower, so this name is suitable.

C.) Oak Street 
* Nope. Not only is this a tree instead of a flower, but there's already an Oak street. So bad choice.

D.) Panther Street
* Nope, this is an animal, not a flower. Bad choice.

A colony of bacteria is growing at a rate of 0.2 times its mass. Here time is measured in hours and mass in grams. The mass of t
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

  • <u>Question 1:</u>      dm/dt=0.2m<u />

<u />

  • <u>Question 2:</u>     m=Ae^{(0.2t)}<u />

<u />

  • <u>Question 3:</u>      m=10e^{(0.2t)}<u />

<u />

  • <u>Question 4:</u>      m=10g<u />

Explanation:

<u>Question 1: Write down the differential equation the mass of the bacteria, m, satisfies: m′= .2m</u>

<u></u>

a) By definition:  m'=dm/dt

b)  Given:  rate=0.2m

c) By substitution:  dm/dt=0.2m

<u>Question 2: Find the general solution of this equation. Use A as a constant of integration.</u>

a) <u>Separate variables</u>

     dm/m=0.2dt

b)<u> Integrate</u>

           \int dm/m=\int 0.2dt

            ln(m)=0.2t+C

c) <u>Antilogarithm</u>

       m=e^{0.2t+C}

       m=e^{0.2t}\cdot e^C

         e^C=A\\\\m=Ae^{(0.2t)}

<u>Question 3. Which particular solution matches the additional information?</u>

<u></u>

Use the measured rate of 4 grams per hour after 3 hours

            t=3hours,dm/dt=4g/h

First, find the mass at t = 3 hours

            dm/dt=0.2m\\\\4=0.2m\\\\m=4/0.2\\\\m=20g

Now substitute in the general solution of the differential equation, to find A:

          m=Ae^{(0.2t)}\\\\20=Ae^{(0.2\times 3)}\\\\A=20/e^{(0.6)}\\\\A=10.976

Round A to 1 significant figure:

  • A = 10.

<u>Particular solution:</u>

           

             m=10e^{(0.2t)}

<u>Question 4. What was the mass of the bacteria at time =0?</u>

Substitute t = 0 in the equation of the particular solution:

         m=10e^{0}\\\\m=10g
