An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 4.6 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 26 engines and the mean pressure was 4.9 pounds/square inch with a variance of 0.81. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

Decision Rule; Reject H₀ if t > 1.708

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

sample size n = 26

sample mean x' = 4.9

Variance = 0.81

standard deviation σ = √variance = √0.81 = 0.9

level of significance ∝ = 0.05

Claim;

Null hypothesis             H₀ : μ = 4.6

Alternative hypothesis H₁ : μ > 4.6

Test Statistics;

Right tailed test

Now, decision rule for rejecting H₀;

degree of freedom df = n - 1 = 26 - 1 = 25

so, Right tailed test { > in H₁ }

Hence, Critical Value = [tex]t_{\alpha ,df[/tex] = [tex]t_{0.05, 25[/tex] = 1.708

Decision Rule; Reject H₀ if t > 1.708

In a manufacturing process, the assembly line speed (feet per minute) is believed to affect the number of defective parts found during the inspection process. Data (File 3) are collected on the number of defective parts for a variety of line speeds. Develop a linear regression equation that can be used to predict the number of defective parts given the line speed.

Line Speed Number of Defective Parts Found
20 21
20 19
40 15
30 16
60 14
40 17

Required:
a. Develop a scatter chart with line speed as the independent variable. What does the chart indicate about the relationship between line speed and the number of defective parts found?
b. Use the data to develop an estimated regression equation that could be used to predict the number of defective parts found, given the line speed. What is the estimated regression model?
c. Test whether each of the regression parameters βo and β1 is equal to zero at 0.01 level of significance. What are the correct interpretations of the estimated regression parameters?
d. How much of the variation in the number of defective parts found for the sample data does the model you estimated in part (b) explain?

. A farm stand displays 3 baskets with 12 peaches in each basket and 2 baskets with 15 plums in each basket. A customer buys 8 pieces of fruit. Which equation shows how to find the number of peaches and plums, p, in the basket? *
1 point
3 + 12 x 2 + 15 - 8 = p
12 -3 + 15 - 2 x 8 = p
3 x 12 + 2 x 15 + 8 = p
3 x 12 + 2 x 15 - 8 = p
