An automobile manufacturer claims that a new Hybrid model will average at least 60 miles per gallon of gas. A sample of 40 cars and and a 5% level of significance will be used for this analysis, The population standard deviation is assumed to be 7 miles per gallon. What is the Probability of a Type II error if the "true" mean is 57 miles per gallon? What is the probability of making a Type I error?

2. The manufacturer of a new model car (Camry) claims that a typical car get 26 miles per gallon. A consumer advocacy group is skeptical of this claim and thinks that the mean gas mileage, , of all Camrys may be less than 26 mpg. The group plans to perform the hypothesis test at a = 0.05, using a sample of 30 Camrys. Ho: u = 26 mpg Hu<26 mpg Find the probability of making a Type II error if...

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...

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...

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?

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?

The fuel consumption, in miles per gallon, of all cars of a particular model has a mean of 90 and a standard deviation of 12. The population distribution can be assumed to be normal. A random sample of these cars is taken. (a) What is the sampling distribution of the sample means? (b) Find the probability that sample mean fuel consumption will be fewer than 75 miles per gallon if: i. a sample of 1 observation is taken. ii. a...
