a.n= 13, t= 1.6, 伪= .05

b.n= 13, t= -1.6, 伪 =.05

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.

02

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 \({H_0}\)

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.

To obtain information on the corrosion-resistance properties of a certain type of steel conduit, 45 specimens are buried in soil for a 2-year period. The maximum penetration (in mils) for each specimen is then measured, yielding a sample average penetration of \(\overline x = 52.7\) and a sample standard deviation of s = 4.8. The conduits were manufactured with the specification that true average penetration be at most 50 mils. They will be used unless it can be demonstrated conclusively that the specification has not been met. What would you conclude?

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.

\(y'' + y = tanx; y = - (cosx) ln(secx + tanx)\).

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.

Automatic identification of the boundaries of significant structures within a medical image is an area of ongoing research. The paper 鈥淎utomatic Segmentation of Medical Images Using Image Registration: Diagnostic and

Simulation Applications鈥 (J. of Medical Engr. and Tech., 2005: 53鈥63)discussed a new technique for such identification. A measure of the accuracy of the automatic region is the average linear displacement (ALD). The paper gave the following ALD observations for a sample of 49 kidneys (units of pixel dimensions).

1.38 0.44 1.09 0.75 0.66 1.28 0.51

0.39 0.70 0.46 0.54 0.83 0.58 0.64

1.30 0.57 0.43 0.62 1.00 1.05 0.82

1.10 0.65 0.99 0.56 0.56 0.64 0.45

0.82 1.06 0.41 0.58 0.66 0.54 0.83

0.59 0.51 1.04 0.85 0.45 0.52 0.58

1.11 0.34 1.25 0.38 1.44 1.28 0.51

a.Summarize/describe the data.

b.Is it plausible that ALD is at least approximately normally distributed? Must normality be assumed prior to calculating a CI for true average ALD or testing hypotheses about true average ALD? Explain.

c.The authors commented that in most cases the ALD is better than or of the order of 1.0. Does the data in fact provide strong evidence for concluding that true average ALD under these circumstances is less than 1.0? Carry out an appropriate test of hypotheses.

d.Calculate an upper confidence bound for true average ALD using a confidence level of 95%, and interpret this bound.
