Chapter 9: Q. 11 (page 564)

The mean amount of liquid in the bottles is 179.6ml and the standard deviation is 1.3ml. A significance test yields a P-value of 0.0589. Interpret the P-value.

Short Answer

Expert verified

There is a 5.89%possibility that the mean volume of liquid in a sample of 40bottles is 179.6milliliters or more extreme, when the mean volume of liquid of all bottles is180 milliliters.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information

P=0.0589=5.89%x炉=179.6s=1.3

Claim mean is180

02

Step 2. Explanation

The claim is either the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis. The null hypothesis statement is that the population mean is equal to the value given in the claim. If the null hypothesis is the claim, then the alternative hypothesis statement is the opposite of the null hypothesis.

H0:渭=180Ha:渭鈮�180

The P-value is the probability of getting the value of the test static or a value more extreme, when the null hypothesis is true.

There is a 5.89%possibility that the mean volume of liquid in a sample of 40bottles is 179.6milliliters or more extreme, when the mean volume of liquid of all bottles is 180milliliters.

How much juice? Refer to Exercises 3 and 11 .

a. What conclusion would you make at the 伪=0.10伪=0.10level?

b. Would your conclusion from part (a) change if a 5 \% significance level was used instead? Explain your reasoning.

Bullies in middle school A media report claims that more than 75%of

middle school students engage in bullying behavior. A University of Illinois study on aggressive behavior surveyed a random sample of 558middle school students. When asked to describe their behavior in the last 30days, 445students admitted that they had engaged in physical aggression, social ridicule, teasing, name-calling, and issuing threats 鈥攁ll of which would be classified as bullying. Do these data provide convincing evidence at the 伪=0.05significance level that the media report鈥檚 claim is correct?

Packaging DVDs (6.2,5.3) A manufacturer of digital video discs (DVDs) wants to be sure that the DVDs will fit inside the plastic cases used as packaging. Both the cases and the DVDs are circular. According to the supplier, the diameters of the plastic cases vary Normally with mean 渭=5.3inches and standard deviation 蟽=0.01inch. The DVD manufacturer produces DVDs with mean diameter渭=5.26inches. Their diameters follow a Normal distribution with 蟽=0.02inch.

a. Let X = the diameter of a randomly selected case and Y = the diameter of a randomly selected DVD. Describe the shape, center, and variability of the distribution of the random variable X鈭扽. What is the importance of this random variable to the DVD manufacturer?

b. Calculate the probability that a randomly selected DVD will fit inside a randomly selected case.

c. The production process runs in batches of 100 DVDs. If each of these DVDs is paired with a randomly chosen plastic case, find the probability that all the DVDs fit in their cases.

A company that manufactures classroom chairs for high school students

claims that the mean breaking strength of the chairs is 300 pounds. One of the chairs collapsed beneath a 220-pound student last week. You suspect that the manufacturer is exaggerating the breaking strength of the chairs, so you would like to perform a test of H0:渭=300Ha:渭<300where 渭 is the true mean breaking strength of this company鈥檚 classroom chairs.

a. The power of the test to detect that 渭=294 based on a random sample of 30

chairs and a significance level of 伪=0.05 is 0.71. Interpret this value.

b. Find the probability of a Type I error and the probability of a Type II error for the test in part (a).

c. Describe two ways to increase the power of the test in part (a).

After once again losing a football game to the archrival, a college鈥檚 alumni association conducted a survey to see if alumni were in favor of firing the coach. An SRS of 100 alumni from the population of all living alumni was taken, and 64 of the alumni in the sample were in favor of firing the coach. Suppose you wish to see if a majority of all living alumni is in favor of firing the coach. The appropriate standardized test statistic is

(a)z=0.64-0.50.64(0.36)100z=0.64-0.50.64(0.36)100

role="math" localid="1654432946823" (b)t=0.64-0.50.64(0.36)100t=0.64-0.50.64(0.36)100

(c)z=0.64-0.50.5(0.5)100z=0.64-0.50.5(0.5)100

(d)z=0.64-0.50.64(0.36)64z=0.64-0.50.64(0.36)64

(e)z=0.5-0.640.5(0.5)100z=0.5-0.640.5(0.5)100
