A surgical clamp manufacturer claims that only 10% of its parts are defective (p = 0.10). Hospital critics claim the defect rate is higher (p > 0.10). Testing of 500 randomly selected parts yields a Z statistic of -4.0.
a & b) Write out the null and alternative hypotheses
c) Will the computation result in a one- or two-tailed test (on a Bell curve)?
d) What does the negative z-score indicate regarding the critical region of the test (on a Bell curve)?
e) Will we reject (accept the alternative hypothesis) or fail to reject (accept) the null hypothesis?

443. An auto manufacturer claims that its new 4-cylinder Hybrid auto with manual shift averages 50 mpg under city driving conditions. A Federal Agency believes this claim is too high and decides to randomly test 25 of the manufacturer's 4-cylinder Hybrid autos with manual shift. The Agency determines the mean average mpg for the sample to be 48 with a sample standard deviation of 4 mpg under city driving conditions. At α = 5%, the conclusion of this hypothesis test...

How can I find a p-value when given a test statistic only with no df? I am preferably looking for a method with a TI-84 but will accept any answer, here is the question I am trying to answer: Use the given information to find the P-value. Also, use a 0.05 significance level and state the conclusion about the null hypothesis (reject the null hypothesis or fail to reject the null hypothesis). The test statistic in a left-tailed test is...

Use the given information to find the p-value. Use a 0.05 significance level and state the conclusion about the null hypothesis (reject the null hypothesis or fail to reject the null hypothesis). a. The test statistic in a right-tailed test is z = 1.00. b. The test statistic in a test with alternative hypothesis p 6= 5/7 is z = 2.05. c. The test statistic in a test with alternative hypothesis p < 2/3 in z = −0.45.

A manufacturer claims that the mean lifetime of its lithium batteries is 1100 hours but a group of homeowners believe their battery life is different than this manufacturer's claim. A homeowner selects 35 of these batteries and finds the mean lifetime to be 1080 hours with a standard deviation of 80 hours. Test the manufacturer's claim. Use a 10% level of significance and the p-value approach. Round the test statistic to the nearest thousandth. Need hypothesis testing, values of symbols,...

A nutritionist claims that the mean tuna consumption by a person is 3.2 pounds per year. A sample of 50 people shows that the mean tuna consumption by a person is 3.1 pounds per year with a standard deviation of 1.06 pounds. A a= 0.01 can you reject the claim? Identify the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis: Identify the standardized test statistic z=? Find the P-value P=? Decide whether to reject or fail to reject of fail the null hypothesis

An automobile manufacturer claims that their car has a 56.7 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the MPG for this car. After testing 14 cars they found a mean MPG of 56.6 with a standard deviation of 1.1. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the cars underperform the manufacturer's MPG rating? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 1 of 5: State the null and alternative hypotheses. Answer 2 Points...

A hospital claims that the proportion, p, of full-term babies born in their hospital that weigh more than 7 pounds is 48%. In a random sample of 200 babies born in this hospital, 76 weighed over 7 pounds. Is there enough evidence to reject the hospital's claim at the 0.01 level of significance? Perform a two-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places and round your answers as specified in...

The P-value for a hypothesis test is shown. Use the P-value to decide whether to reject H when the level of significance is (a) a= 0.01, (b) a 0.05, and (c) a0.10. P 0.0749 (a) Do you reject or fail to reject Ho at the 0.01 level of significance? O A. Reject H because the P-value, 0.0749, is greater than a=0.01 O B. Fail to reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0749, is less than a = 0.01 O C. Reject...

An automobile manufacturer claims that its van has a 36.2 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the MPG for this van since it is believed that the van has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 220 vans, they found a mean MPG of 36.0. Assume the variance is known to be 4.41. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Make a decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis...
