A shipping firm suspects that the mean life of a certain brand of tire used by its trucks is less than 35,000 miles. To check the claim, the firm randomly selects and tests 18 of these tires and gets a mean lifetime of 34,200 miles with a standard deviation of 1200 miles. At α = 0.05, test the shipping firm's claim. Round the test statistic to the nearest thousandth.


Step 1) Write the null and alternative hypotheses.






Step 2) State a level of significance α. Determine the critical value and critical region.








Step 3) Compute the test statistic. Use classical approach or P-value approach.










Step4) Compare the critical value with test statistic or P-value with α.







Step5) State the conclusion.

Answer 1

Since H0 is not rejected so, the mean life of a contain brand of tire used by it's trucks is not less than 35,000 miles.

What is standard deviation?

The standard deviation is a statistic that expresses how much variation or dispersion there is in a set of values. While a high standard deviation suggests that the values are dispersed over a wider range, a low standard deviation suggests that the values tend to be close to the set mean.

A shipping firm suspects that the mean life of a certain brand of tire used by its trucks is less than 35,000 miles.

To check the claim, the firm randomly selects and tests 18 of these tires and gets a mean lifetime of 34,200 miles with a standard deviation of 1200 miles.

At α = 0.05, test the shipping firm's claim.

Under H0: μ 200  Vs H1: > 200  (Right tailed test)

n = 16, x bar = 205 , s = 14

Null Hypothesis;  H0:  μ = 35000  Vs  H1: < 35000

(Mean life of brand of tire less than 35000 miles).

Under H0 test statistic is

t = (x bar - μ) / (s / √n) ≈ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

Now, n = 18, x bar = 34,200,  s = 12000

t = (34000 - 35000) / (1200 / √18) = -2.8284

t - critical value of α = 0.05 for left tailed at (18 - 1) df = -2.11

Therefore t calculated (= -2.8284) < -2.11

So, we do not reject H0.

Hence, since H0 is not rejected so, the mean life of a contain brand of tire used by it's trucks is not less than 35,000 miles.

For a certain company, the cost function for producing x items is C(x)=50x+200 and the revenue function for selling x items is R(x)=−0.5(x−120)2+7,200. The maximum capacity of the company is 140 items.

Assuming that the company sells all that it produces, what is the profit function?
P(x)=
Preview Change entry mode .

Hint: Profit = Revenue - Cost as we examined in Discussion 3.

What is the domain of P(x)?
Hint: Does calculating P(x) make sense when x=−10 or x=1,000?

The company can choose to produce either 70 or 80 items. What is their profit for each case, and which level of production should they choose?
Profit when producing 70 items =
Number


Profit when producing 80 items =
Number


Can you explain, from our model, why the company makes less profit when producing 10 more units?

Answers

The profit equation is:

p(x) = -0.5*x^2 + 70x - 200

The domain is:

x ∈ [0, 140], such that x ∈ Z

and the profit is larger for 70 items.

We know that:

Cost equation:

c(x) = 50*x + 200

revenue equation:

r(x) = -0.5*(x - 120)^2 + 7,200

The maximum capacity is 140

Then x can be any value in the range [0, 140]

We want to find the profit equation, remember that:

profit = revenue - cost

Then the profit equation is:

p(x) = r(x) - c(x)

p(x) = ( -0.5*(x - 120)^2 + 7,200) - ( 50*x + 200)

Now we can simplify this:

p(x) =  -0.5*(x - 120)^2 + 7,200 - 50x - 200

p(x) =  -0.5*(x - 120)^2 + 7,000 - 50x

p(x) = -0.5*(x^2 - 2*120*x + 120^2) + 7,000 - 50x

p(x) = -0.5*x^2 + 120x - 7,200 + 7,000 - 50x

p(x) = -0.5*x^2 + 70x - 200

Now we want to answer, what is the domain of p(x)?

The domain is the set of the possible inputs of the function.

Remember that x is in the range [0, 140], such that x should be a whole number, so we also need to add x ∈ Z

then:

x ∈ Z ∧ x ∈ [0, 140]

Then that is the domain of the profit function.

Now we want to see the profit for 70 and 80 items, to do it, just evaluate p(x) in these values:

70 items:

p(70) = -0.5*70^2 + 70*70 - 200 = 2,250

p(80) = -0.5*80^2 + 70*80 - 200 = 2,200

So the profit is smaller for the larger number of items, why does this happen?

You can see that the profit equation is a quadratic equation with a negative leading coefficient, so, as the value of x increases after a given point (the vertex of the quadratic) the profit will start to decrease.

Exercise 11.4.3: Detecting a biased coin. About A gambler has a coin which is either fair (equal probability heads or tails) or is biased with a probability of heads equal to 0.3. Without knowing which coin he is using, you ask him to flip the coin 10 times. If the number of heads is at least 4, you conclude that the coin is fair. If the number of heads is less than 4, you conclude that the coin is biased. (a) What is the probability you reach an incorrect conclusion if the coin is fair

Answers

Answer:

0.17189

0.3504

Step-by-step explanation:

For a fair coin ; p = 0.5

1 - p = 0.5

P(x < 4) = p(x = 0) + p(x =1) + p(x = 2) + p(x = 3)

Recall:

P(x =x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

Using a calculator to save time:

P(x <4) = 0.00098 + 0.00977 + 0.04395 + 0.11719

P(x < 4) = 0.17189

For a unfair coin :

p = 0.3 ; 1 - p = 1 - 0. 3 = 0.7

P(x ≥ 4) = p(x=4)+p(x =5)+p(x=6)+p(x=7)+p(x=8)+p(x=9) +P(x=10)

Recall:

P(x =x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

Using a calculator to save time:

P(x ≥4) = 0.3504

The base and height of a triangle are each extended 2cm. what is the area of the shaded region? explain how you know


PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIEST PLESSE HELPPPP

Answers

Answer:

18cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the area of the shaded region is shown below:

But before that the x value is

x ÷ 8 = (x+2) ÷ 10

10x = 8x + 16

10x - 8x = 16

2x = 16

x = 8

Now as we know that

Area = base ×  height

= 2cm × 8cm

= 16cm²

Now for small triangle

Area  = 1 ÷  2(base)(height)

= 1 ÷ 2 × (2)(2)

=4 ÷ 2

A = 2cm²

Now the total area of the shaded region is

= 16cm^2 + 2cm^2

= 18cm^2

Answers

Answer:

Since we know that the sum of the two angles equal 180, we can add them together to equal 180 degrees.
