The diagram above is data of current Tasmanian devils HTL length.
Solution : Given that the population mean is the mean of Tasmanian devils HTL length
let the given data of tasmanian devils HTL length is x. Here we know the population mean as 65cm but we do not know about the sd
thus we have to estimate the sd as below, R commands as follows
the estimate of population sd is sample varience.
> x
[1] 50.73 60.71 62.15 57.23 53.87 66.34 55.58 60.82 58.91 49.16

a) We have to test the mean is different from 65.
The population sd is unkonwn thus we have to use one sample t test.
To test
H0: The mean is not different from 65
vs H1 : The mean is different from 65
Test statistics :
t cal=
=
= -7.75832
Thus ,
decision : We reject H0 if |t cal | > t n-1 ,
/2
Here the |t cal|= 7.75832 > t table value = 2.042 , thus we reject H0 at 5% los
Here we take los as 5% .
Conclusion : hence the value mean of Tasmanian devils HTL length has changed from 65 cm.
R commands to perform test are as,
> t.test(x,mu=65,conf.level=0.95)
One Sample t-test
data: x
t = -7.7583, df = 31, p-value = 9.402e-09
alternative hypothesis: true mean is not equal to 65
95 percent confidence interval:
56.39189 59.97561
sample estimates:
mean of x
58.18375
Here p value is 9.402e-09 < 0.05
thus at 5% los we reject the null hypothesis that the mean population THT has not changed from 65 cm
Therefore, the value mean of Tasmanian devils HTL length has changed from 65 cm.
b) The assumption that need to be satisfied are
i) The sample size must be less than 30
This assumption need to satisfy becouse t distribution is exct test and not approximation test as z test.
ii) The popultaion mean should be known and the population sd has to be estimated
we estimate it by using the sample varience
The Z test is general test but t test is exact test thus it gives rigid results about the sample
c)
Confidence interval for population mean
(
- t n-1,∝/2 * s/
,
+ tn-1∝/2 * s/
)
Lower confidence bound =
- tn-1∝/2 * s /
= 58.18375 -
2.042* 4.969957/ 5.65685
= 56.3997
And upper confidence bound =
+ tn-1,∝/2 * s/
= 58.18375+ 2.042 * 4.969957 / 5.65685
= 59.9777952
Thus the CI is given by ( 56.3997 , 59.9777952)
d) Here the population mean 65 does not lie in the confidence interval
e) This supports the decision of the rejection of the null hypothesis. Since the population mean is 65 which does not lie in the confidence indicates that the data does does not support the assumption that sample mean is 65 cm
Hence the test done in part 2a is correct.

A new process has been developed for applying photoresist film to 125 mm silicon wafers used in manufacturing integrated circuits. Ten wafers were tested, and the following photoresist film thickness measurements were observed: 13.3987, 13.3957, 13.3902, 13.4015, 13.4001, 13.3918, 13.3965, 13.3925, 13.3946 and 13.4002 angstroms (1 angstrom = 1x 10- metre). The photoresist film process has shown from past results that the distribution is normal. Use a = 0.05 and s = .00391 a. Test the hypothesis that the mean...
