A car manufacturer claims that the variance of the gas mileage in a model of it new release self-driving car is more than 0.24. You work for consumer advocacy group and are responsible for testing this claim. you sampled 23 vehicles and came up with a variance of 0.17 instead. At alpha = 0.1, is there enough evidence to reject the claim? Assume test scores are normally distributed.

SAMPLING DISTRIBUTION The manufacturer of a new compact car claims the miles per gallon (mpg) for gasoline consumption is normally distribution with u = 26.3 mpg and standard deviation 6 = 9.0 mpg. A consumer agency is looking to verify the manufacturer's claim. If a sample of 36 cars are tested, what is the probability that the mean mpg 7 is (a) less than 23 mpg? (b) more than 29 mpg? (b) between 23 and 29 mpg?

Question 2 (1 point) An automobile manufacturer wishes to test that claim that synthetic motor oil can improve gas mileage (in miles per gallon, or mpg). The table below shows the gas mileages, in mpg, of six cars that used synthetic motor oil. The table also shows the gas mileages in mpg of six cars that were using conventional motor oil (the controls). Synthetic Control: 26 25 25 26 27 25 Can you conclude that the mean gas mileage for...

The manufacturer of a new car claims that miles per gallon for the gas consumption is normally distributed with a mean of 25.9 mpg and a standard deviation of 3.1 mpg. a.) If one car is tested, what is the probability that the mean mpg is less than 24 mpg? b.) If 30 cars are tested, what is the probability that the mean mpg is less than 24 mpg? c.) If one car is tested, what is the probability that...

The manufacturer of a new compact car claims the miles per gallon (mpg) for the gasoline consumption is mound-shaped and symmetric with a mean of 24.6 mpg and a standard deviation of 9.5 mpg. If 30 such cars are tested, what is the probability the average mpg achieved by these 30 cars will be greater than 28?
A certain model of automobile has its gas mileage (in miles per gallon, or mpg) normally...
A certain model of automobile has its gas mileage (in miles per gallon, or mpg) normally distributed, with a mean of 26 mpg and a standard deviation of 4 mpg. Find the probability that a car selected at random has the following gas mileages. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) less than 20 mpg (b) greater than 28 mpg (c) between 24 and 28 mpg

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 consumer advocacy group is doing a large study on car rental practices. Among other things, the consumer group would like to estimate the mean monthly mileage, u, of cars rented in the U.S. over the past year. The consumer group plans to choose a random sample of monthly U.S. rental car mileages and then estimate u using the mean of the sample. Using the value 850 miles per month as the standard deviation of monthly U.S. rental car mileages...
