1) A microwave manufacturing company has just switched to a new automated

production system. Unfortunately, the new machinery has been frequently failing and requiring repairs and service. The company has been able to provide its customers with a completion time of 6 days or less. To analyze whether the completion time has increased, the production manager took a sample of 36 jobs and found that the sample mean completion time was 6.5 days with a sample standard deviation of 1.5 days. At a significance level of .10, test whether the completion time has increased.

Sample size: 36 Sample standard deviation: 5 Sample mean: 6.5 Formulate a hypothesis test to evaluate the claim. Ho: = 6.5; Ha: 6.5 Ho: 6; Ha: < 6 Ho: 6.5; Ha: > 6.5 Ho: > 6.5; Ha: 6.5

(Points: 10)

Answer: Ho=u > 6 Ha= u < 6 If p-value is less than the alpha (.10) then we reject the null hypothesis (H0). Alpha=.10 P=.9733 Go to Megastat: Put data in excel (sample mean, standard deviation, sample size) = (6.5,1.5,36) Choose Hypothesis Test, then Mean versus Hypothesied Value

Answer: H0 > .02 H1< .02 Note: Level of significance is equal to the alpha. In this example .01 The p value (.0161) is more than alpha . 01, so we cannot reject the null (H0) Rh negative Rh positive Type A 20 45 65 Type B 30 25 55 Type AB 5 15 20 Type O 75 120 195 Tot al 130 205 335

6) Carter blood mobile tested 335 people for their blood type and Rh factor. The following table represents their findings: a)What is the probability that a a person will have type O blood? b)What is the probability that a person will have a negative Rh factor? c)What is the probability of having type B blood and a positive Rh factor ? d)What is the probability of having Type AB or Type B ? e) What is the probability that given a person has type B blood their Rh factor will be negative?

f)What is the probability that given a person has a positive Rh factor they will be type A?
