a.n= 13, t= 1.6, 伪= .05

b.n= 13, t= -1.6, 伪 =.05

c.n= 25, t= -2.6, 伪 =.01

Short Answer

a)Fail to Reject the null hypothesis\({H_0}\).

b) Fail to Reject the null hypothesis\({H_0}\).

c) Fail to Reject the null hypothesis\({H_0}\).

d) Reject the null hypothesis \({H_0}\).

Step by step solution

01

Step 1:Null hypothesis.

The null hypothesis, denoted by H0, is the claim that is initially assumed to be true (the 鈥減rior belief鈥 claim). The alternative hypothesis, denoted by Ha, is the assertion that is contradictory to H0.

The null hypothesis will be rejected in favour of the alternative hypothesis only if sample evidence suggests that H0 is false. If the sample does not strongly contradict H0, we will continue to believe in the plausibility of the null hypothesis. The two possible conclusions from a hypothesis-testing analysis are then reject H0 or fail to reject H0.

Solution for part a).

Given that,

\(\begin{array}{l}n = 13\\t = 1.6\\\alpha = 0.05\end{array}\)

Given claim: average is \(0.5in.\)

The claim i either the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis. The null hypothesis states that the population mean is equal to the value mentioned in the claim. If the null hypothesis is the claim, then the alternative hypothesis state the opposite of the null hypothesis.

\({H_0}:\mu = 0.5\)

\({H_a}:\mu \ne 0.5\)

The P-value is the probability of obtaining the value of the test statistic, or a value more extreme. The P-value is the number (or interval) in the column title of the students T table in the appendix containing the t-value in the row

\(\begin{array}{l}df = n - 1\\df = 13 - 1\\df = 12\end{array}\)

You need to double the boundaries, because the test is two sided.

\(0.10 = 2(0.05) < P < 2(0.10) = 0.20\)

If the P-value is smaller than the significance level, then the null hypothesis is rejected.

\(P > 0.05\), so it is Fail to reject \({H_0}\)

03

Solution for part b).

Given that,

\(\begin{array}{l}n = 13\\t = - 1.6\\\alpha = 0.05\end{array}\)

Given claim: average is \(0.5in.\)

The claim i either the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis. The null hypothesis states that the population mean is equal to the value mentioned in the claim. If the null hypothesis is the claim, then the alternative hypothesis state the opposite of the null hypothesis.

\({H_0}:\mu = 0.5\)

\({H_a}:\mu \ne 0.5\)

The P-value is the probability of obtaining the value of the test statistic, or a value more extreme. The P-value is the number (or interval) in the column title of the students T table in the appendix containing the t-value in the row

\(\begin{array}{l}df = n - 1\\df = 13 - 1\\df = 12\end{array}\)

You need to double the boundaries, because the test is two sided.

\(0.10 = 2(0.05) < P < 2(0.10) = 0.20\)

If the P-value is smaller than the significance level, then the null hypothesis is rejected.

\(P > 0.05\), so it is Fail to reject \({H_0}\)

04

Solution for part c).

Given that,

\(\begin{array}{l}n = 25\\t = - 2.6\\\alpha = 0.01\end{array}\)

Given claim: average is \(0.5in.\)

The claim i either the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis. The null hypothesis states that the population mean is equal to the value mentioned in the claim. If the null hypothesis is the claim, then the alternative hypothesis state the opposite of the null hypothesis.

\({H_0}:\mu = 0.5\)

\({H_a}:\mu \ne 0.5\)

The P-value is the probability of obtaining the value of the test statistic, or a value more extreme. The P-value is the number (or interval) in the column title of the students T table in the appendix containing the t-value in the row

\(\begin{array}{l}df = n - 1\\df = 25 - 1\\df = 24\end{array}\)

You need to double the boundaries, because the test is two sided.

\(0.01 = 2(0.005) < P < 2(0.01) = 0.02\)

If the P-value is smaller than the significance level, then the null hypothesis is rejected.

\(P > 0.01\), so it is Fail to reject \({H_0}\)

05

Solution for part d).

Given that,

\(\begin{array}{l}n = 25\\t = - 3.9\end{array}\)

Let us assume : \(\alpha = 0.01\)

Given claim: average is \(0.5in.\)

The claim i either the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis. The null hypothesis states that the population mean is equal to the value mentioned in the claim. If the null hypothesis is the claim, then the alternative hypothesis state the opposite of the null hypothesis.

\({H_0}:\mu = 0.5\)

\({H_a}:\mu \ne 0.5\)

The P-value is the probability of obtaining the value of the test statistic, or a value more extreme. The P-value is the number (or interval) in the column title of the students T table in the appendix containing the t-value in the row

\(\begin{array}{l}df = n - 1\\df = 25 - 1\\df = 24\end{array}\)

You need to double the boundaries, because the test is two sided.

\(P < 2(0.005) = 0.01\)

If the P-value is smaller than the significance level, then the null hypothesis is rejected.

\(P < 0.01\), so it is reject \({H_0}\)

Newly purchased tires of a particular type are supposed to be filled to a pressure of 30 psi. Let 碌 denote the true average pressure. A test is to be carried out to decide whether 碌 differs from the target value. Determine the P-value for each of the following z test statistic values.

In Problems \(11 - 14\) verify that the indicated function is an explicit solution of the given differential equation. Assume an appropriate interval I of definition for each solution.

A spectrophotometer used for measuring CO concentration (ppm (parts per million) by volume) is checked for accuracy by taking readings on a manufactured gas (called span gas) in which the CO concentration is very precisely controlled at \(70ppm\). If the readings suggest that the spectrophotometer is not working properly, it will have to be recalibrated. Assume that if it is properly calibrated, measured concentration for span gas samples is normally distributed. On the basis of the six readings \(85,{\rm{ }}77,{\rm{ }}82,{\rm{ }}68,{\rm{ }}72,\) and \(69\) is recalibration necessary? Carry out a test of the relevant hypotheses using a \(\alpha = .05\).

Many older homes have electrical systems that use fuses rather than circuit breakers. A manufacturer of 40-amp fuses wants to make sure that the mean amperage at which its fuses burn out is in fact 40. If the mean amperage is lower than 40, customers will complain because the fuses require replacement too often. If the mean amperage is higher than 40, the manufacturer might be liable for damage to an electrical system due to fuse malfunction. To verify the amperage of the fuses, a sample of fuses is to be selected and inspected. If a hypothesis test were to be performed on the resulting data, what null and alternative hypotheses would be of interest to the manufacturer? Describe type I and type II errors in the context of this problem situation.

Let denote the true average reaction time to a certain stimulus. For a z test of H0: 碌 =5 versus Ha: 碌 > 5, determine the P-value for each of the following values of the z test statistic.
