"An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 4.1 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 260 engines and the mean pressure was 4.2 pounds/square inch. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 0.9. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Determine the decision rule. Enter the decision rule."

H₀ is accepted, we don´t have evidence to claim valves produces more than 4,1 pounds/square inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

Population mean   μ₀  = 4.1

Population standard deviation  σ = 0,9

Sample size   n  = 260

Sample mean     μ  =  4,2

Level of significance 0,02       α = 0,02 form z-table we find z score

z(c) = 2,05  (critical value)

Test hypothesis      

Null hypothesis                       H₀            μ  =  μ₀

Alternative hypothesis           Hₐ            μ   >  μ₀

Is a one tail-test ( to the right. Values have a mean over the population mean)

z(s) = (  μ  -  μ₀ )/ σ /√n

z(s) =  4,2 - 4,1 / 0,9/√260

z(s) = 0,1 *16,1245 / 0,9

z(s) =  1,7916

To compare  z(s)   and z(c)

z(s) < z(c)

Then  z(s) is in the acceptance region, we accept H₀

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560
