Answers (1)

Given that,
Tesla Motors needs to buy axles for their new car.
They are considering using Chris Cross Manufacturing as a vendor.
Teslas requirement is that 95% of the axles are 100 cm 5 cm.
The following data is MegaStat output from a test run from Chris
Cross Manufacturing:
Descriptive statistics
count: 16
mean: 99.938
sample variance: 2.313
sample standard deviation: 1.521

maximum: 102.9

range: 5.9
population variance: 2.169
population standard deviation: 1.473
standard error of the mean: 0.380

1st quartile: 98.900
median: 99.850
3rd quartile: 100.475
interquartile range: 1.575

Now, we have to construct 95% confidence interval for the data from
the Chris Cross Manufacturing

(TCO D) A PC manufacturer claims that no more than 2% of their machines are defective. In a random
sample of 100 machines, it is found that 4.5% are defective. The manufacturer claims this is a fluke of the sample. At
a .02 level of significance, test the manufacturers claim, and explain your answer.

Reference:
Set up the hypotheses:
H0: p <= 0.02
Ha: p > 0.02
This is a one tailed test, since we will only reject for high proportions.
Since we are using a 0.02 level of significance (its just chance that the hypotheses happen to have the same
value as this), well reject the null hypothesis if our P Value is less than 0.02.
The computed P value from Megastat was 0.0371.
This is higher than the significance level.
Therefore, we do not reject H0:.
We can say that the proportion is still less than or equal to 2%, and this was a fluke.

If you choose a customer at random, then find the probability that the customer
is considered borderline.

(TCO B) Historically, 70% of your customers at Rodale Emporium pay for their purchases using credit cards.
In a sample of 20 customers, find the probability that
exactly 14 customers will pay for their purchases using credit cards.
(TCO C) An operations analyst from an airline company has been asked to develop a fairly accurate
estimate of the mean refueling and baggage handling time at a foreign airport. A random sample of 36 refueling and
baggage handling times yields the following results.
Sample Size = 36
Sample Mean = 24.2 minutes
Sample Standard Deviation = 4.2 minutes
Compute the 90% confidence interval for the population mean refueling and baggage time.
(TCO C) The manufacturer of a certain brand of toothpaste claims that a high percentage of dentists
recommend the use of their toothpaste. A random sample of 400 dentists results in 310 recommending their
toothpaste.
Compute the 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of dentists who recommend the use of
this toothpaste.

(TCO D) A Ford Motor Company quality improvement team believes that its recently implemented defect
reduction program has reduced the proportion of paint defects. Prior to the implementation of the program, the
proportion of paint defects was .03 and had been stationary for the past 6 months. Ford selects a random sample of
2,000 cars built after the implementation of the defect reduction program. There were 45 cars with paint defects in
that sample. Does the sample data provide evidence to conclude that the proportion of paint defects is now less
than .03 (with a = .01)? Use the hypothesis testing procedure outlined below.
Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses.
(TCO D) A new car dealer calculates that the dealership must average more than 4.5% profit on sales of
new cars. A random sample of 81 cars gives the following result.
Sample Size = 81
Sample Mean = 4.97%
Sample Standard Deviation = 1.8%
Does the sample data provide evidence to conclude that the dealership averages more than 4.5% profit on sales of
new cars (using a = .10)? Use the hypothesis testing procedure outlined below.
Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses.
(TCO E) Bill McFarland is a real estate broker who specializes in selling farmland in a large western state.
Because Bill advises many of his clients about pricing their land, he is interested in developing a pricing formula of
some type. He feels he could increase his business significantly if he could accurately determine the value of a
farmers land. A geologist tells Bill that the soil and rock characteristics in most of the area that Bill sells do not vary
much. Thus the price of land should depend greatly on acreage. Bill selects a sample of 30 plots recently sold. The
data is found below (in Minitab), where X=Acreage and Y=Price ($1,000s).
