sesenic [268]

Answer:

Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ = 136 mm Hg

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu\neq$ 136 mm Hg

In this context type I error is rejecting that the μ is equal to 136 mm Hg when in fact μ is equal to 136 mm Hg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the mean systolic blood pressure, μ, of CEOs of major corporations is different from 136 mm Hg, which is the value reported in a possibly outdated journal article.

He measures the systolic blood pressures of a random sample of CEOs of major corporations and finds the mean of the sample to be 126 mm Hg and the standard deviation of the sample to be 18 mm Hg.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ = 136 mm Hg {means that the mean systolic blood pressure, μ, of CEOs of major corporations is 136 mm Hg}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu\neq$ 136 mm Hg {means that the mean systolic blood pressure, μ, of CEOs of major corporations is 136 mm Hg}

Type I error states that the null hypothesis is rejected when in fact the null hypothesis was true. So, in this context type I error is rejecting that the μ is equal to 136 mm Hg when in fact μ is equal to 136 mm Hg.

Suppose the researcher decides not to reject the null hypothesis. It means the researcher is making a type I error.

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

(a) The probability that at least one of these components will need repair within 1 year is 0.0278.

(b) The probability that exactly one of these component will need repair within 1 year is 0.0277.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

A = video components need repair within 1 year

B = electronic components need repair within 1 year

C = audio components need repair within 1 year

The information provided is:

P (A) = 0.02

P (B) = 0.007

P (C) = 0.001

The events A, B and C are independent.

(a)

Compute the probability that at least one of these components will need repair within 1 year as follows:

P (At least 1 component needs repair)

= 1 - P (No component needs repair)

$=1-P(A^{c}\cap B^{c}\cap C^{c})\\=1-[P(A^{c})\times P(B^{c})\times P(C^{c})]\\=1-[(1-0.02)\times (1-0.007)\times (1-0.001)]\\=1-0.97216686\\=0.02783314\\\approx 0.0278$

Thus, the probability that at least one of these components will need repair within 1 year is 0.0278.

(b)

Compute the probability that exactly one of these component will need repair within 1 year as follows:

P (Exactly 1 component needs repair)

= P (A or B or C)

$=P(A\cap B^{c}\cap C^{c})+P(A^{c}\cap B\cap C^{c})+P(A^{c}\cap B^{c}\cap C)\\=[0.02\times (1-0.007)\times (1-0.001)]+[(1-0.02)\times 0.007\times (1-0.001)]\\+[(1-0.02)\times (1-0.007)\times 0.001]\\=0.02766642\\\approx 0.0277$

Thus, the probability that exactly one of these component will need repair within 1 year is 0.0277.

Harmonic mean if a number h such that (h-a)/(b-h)=a/b Prove h is H(a,b) iff satisfies either relation a. (1/a)-(1/h) = (1/h) - (

Fudgin [204]

A.

$\displaystyle\frac1a-\frac1h=\frac1h-\frac1b$
$\implies\displaystyle\frac{h-a}{ah}=\frac{b-h}{bh}$
$\implies\displaystyle\frac{h-a}{b-h}=\frac{ah}{bh}$
$\implies\displaystyle\frac{h-a}{b-h}=\frac ab$

b.

$\displaystyle h=\frac{2ab}{a+b}$
$\displaystyle\implies\frac{h-a}{b-h}=\frac{\frac{2ab}{a+b}-a}{b-\frac{2ab}{a+b}}$
$\displaystyle\implies\frac{h-a}{b-h}=\frac{2ab-a(a+b)}{b(a+b)-2ab}$
$\displaystyle\implies\frac{h-a}{b-h}=\frac{ab-a^2}{b^2-ab}$
$\displaystyle\implies\frac{h-a}{b-h}=\frac{a(b-a)}{b(b-a)}$
$\displaystyle\implies\frac{h-a}{b-h}=\frac ab$

The other direction can be proved by following the manipulations in the reverse order.
