- A company is doing a hypothesis test on the variation in quality from two suppliers. Both distributions are normal, and the populations are independent. Use a = 0.01. A sample of 22 products were selected from Supplier 1 and a standard deviation of quality was found to be 5.2696. A sample of 27 products were selected from Supplier 2 and a standard deviation of quality was found to be 3.8328. Test to see if the variance in quality for Supplier 1 is larger than Supplier 2. What are the correct hypotheses? Note this may view better in full screen mode. Select the correct symbols in the order they appear in the problem. Ho: Select an answer ? v Select an answer H1: Select an answer v Select an answer Based on the hypotheses, compute the following: Round answers to at least 4 decimal places. The test statistic is = The p-value is = The decision is to Select an answer v that the variance in The correct summary would be: Select an answer quality for Supplier 1 is larger than Supplier 2.arrow_forwardA professor believes that the variance of ACT composite scores of honor students is less than that of all students who take the ACT. The sample variance of the ACT composite scores for a random sample of 15 honors students is 10.7. The sample variance of the ACT composite scores for a random sample of 18 other students is 24.2 Assume that both population distributions are approximately normal and test the professor’s claim using a 0.10 level of significance. Does the evidence support the professor’s claim? Let honor students be Population 1 and let students in general be Population 2. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. H0: σ21=σ22 Ha: σ21⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯σ22 Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places. Step 3 of 3: Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.arrow_forwardan operation manager at an electronic company wants to test their amplifiers. the design engineer claims they have a mean output of 482 watts with a variance of 121. what is the propbability that the mean amplifier output would be greater than 479.4 watts in a sample of 59 amplifiers if the claim is true? round your asnwer to four decimal places.arrow_forward
- When creating a two sided CI for the difference of two means, assuming that the variance of the two populations - from which the samples are obtained - are equal will (keeping everything else constant) make no difference create a wider CI create a narrower CI O increase the significance levelarrow_forwardAn analysis of variances produces dftotal = 35 and dfwithin = 32. For this analysis, what is dfbetween?arrow_forwardAn engineer is comparing voltages for two types of batteries (K and Q) using a sample of 35 type K batteries and a sample of 44 type Q batteries. The type K batteries have a mean voltage of 8.56, and the population standard deviation is known to be 0.565. The type Q batteries have a mean voltage of 8.74, and the population standard deviation is known to be 0.307. Conduct a hypothesis test for the conjecture that the mean voltage for these two types of batteries is different. Let µj be the true mean voltage for type K batteries and µ2 be the true mean voltage for type Q batteries. Use a 0.05 level of significance. Step 3 of 4: Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis Ho. Round the numerical portion of your answer to two decimal places.arrow_forward
- Although the samples are actually related, an investigator ignores this fact in the statistical analysis and uses a t test for two independent samples. How will this mistake affect the probability of a type II error?arrow_forwardOne sample has n=7 and SS=35 and a second sample has n =17 and SS =45. What is the pooled variance for these two samples?arrow_forwardAn electronic company's records show that the mean number of circuit.boards rejected per batch is 5.7 with a variance of 1.4. Due to a change in the molding process, factory management has hired you to perform a hypothesis test to check if the variance, o, has increased. To do so, you test a random sample of 10 batches produced using the new process; the number of circuit boards rejected per batch has a sample variance of 2.5. Under the assumption that the number of circuit boards rejected per batch using the new process follows a normal distribution, you will perform a chi-square test. Find x, the value of the test statistic for your chi-square test. Round your answer to three or more decimal places. * = 0arrow_forward
- A manufacture of chocolate chips would like to know whether it's bag filling machine works correctly at the 404 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is under filling the bags. A 27 bag sample had a mean of 402 grams with a variance of 676. A level of significance of 0.1 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Is there a sufficient to support the claim that the bags are underfilled? There is or isn't sufficient evident to support this claim that the bags are underfilled?arrow_forwardA manufacturer of chocolate chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 428 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling or overfilling the bags. A 46 bag sample had a mean of 433 grams. Assume the population variance is known to be 441. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level that the bags are underfilled or overfilled? Step 1 of 6: State the null and alternative hypotheses. Step 2 of 6: Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places. Step 3 of 6: Specify if the test is one-tailed or two-tailed. Step 4 of 6: Find the P-value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places. Step 5 of 6: Identify the level of significance for the hypothesis test. Step 6 of 6: Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. Step 7 of 7: State the conclusion of the hypothesis test.arrow_forwardThe data from an independent-measures research study produce a sample mean difference of 4 points, and each sample has a variance of 10. If there are n = 20 scores in each sample, then what is the estimated standard error of the difference between means?arrow_forward
