Question
In
quality–control
applications of hypothesis testing, the null and alternative hypotheses are frequently specified as
H0:
The production process is performing satisfactorily and
Ha:
The process is performing in an unsatisfactory manner. Accordingly,
α
is sometimes referred to as the producer's risk, while
β
is called the consumer's risk. An injection molder produces plastic golf tees with a
0.252
ounce. To investigate whether the injection molder is operating satisfactorily,
40
tees were randomly sampled from the last hour's production. Their weights (in ounces) are listed in the accompanying table. Complete parts a through

- In the past, the mean lifetime for a certain type of flashlight battery has been 9.5 hours. The manufacturer has introduced a change in the production method and wants to perform a significance test to determine whether the mean lifetime has increased as a result. The hypotheses are: null: μ = 9.5 hours alternative: u 9.5 hours Suppose that the results of a significance test result in a rejection of the null hypothesis. If we later find out that the true population running time was actually equal to 10.5, what error has been committed?

The physical therapist states the proportion of adults that receive a physical therapy treatment plan due to sciatica is less than 0.30. If we would like to test the physical therapist's claim with a hypothesis test using a significance level of α=0.10 , which of the following choices are true? Select the correct answer below: There is a 10% chance we will conclude p=0.30, but is in fact p<0.30. There is a 10% chance of rejecting the null hypothesis. There is a 10% chance we will conclude p<0.30, but is in fact p=0.30. There is a 10% chance that p<0.30arrow_forward
- In a test of hypothesis, the null hypothesis is that the population mean is equal to 24 and the alternative hypothesis is that the population mean is not equal to 24. The test is to be made at the 5% significance level.

H0: px = .20, py = .40, and pz = .40 HA: The population proportions are not px = .20, py = .40, and pz = .40 A sample size of 200 resulted in 20 observations in category x, 120 in category y and 60 in category z. Use α = .01 and test to see whether the proportions are as stated in H0. Use the p-value approach.

With the single team, the coach tries training in different conditions and takes measurements. She ran her analysis in Microsoft Excel and received the following output table. If the P value is less than 0.05, the null hypothesis may be rejected. Based on the data table, what decision should the coach make about the hypothesis? Coach should reject the null hypothesis. Coach should fail to reject the null hypothesis. Coach should accept the null hypothesis. Coach does not have enough information to decide.arrow_forward
