Practice Exam 2 KEY

advertisement

1) H

0

: µ ≤ 2

H a

: µ > 2

α = 0.05 z=2.1 (or so) p = 0.02 (or so)

Reject

Our data shows the average has increased

2) The area in each tail is 0.037

The probability of being above the lower tail is 0.963

I can’t get it right without a picture

3) -1.645=(xbar – 126)/(1.5/sqrt(33)) then xbar = 125.57

(125.57-125.3)/(1.5/sqrt(33)) = 1.04

Power = 0.8508

4)

5) H0 says it is safe. Ha says it is unsafe

Type I error is when it as safe and you get your boss in trouble for no good reason

Type II error is when it was unsafe and you allow it to have your name on it

Two answers:

(small α) α=0.01 Because I don’t want to expose a scandal unless I’m absolutely certain

(large α) α=0.10 Because I don’t want my name on a product unless I’m certain it’s safe

BAD ANSWER: small alpha so that the product is more likely to be safe (you can do anything you want to alpha, it won’t change the actual product)

6) Cannot do

7) H

0

: µ=1000g

H

A

: µ≠1000g

α=0.05 t

14

=(999.5-1000)/(1/sqrt(15)) = -1.94

0.05<p-value<0.10

Fail to Reject

We cannot show the average is off from 1000

8) 2.33+-1.684 1.645/sqrt(48) = (1.93, 2.72)

9) d.

Of all possible 95% confidence intervals 95% of them would capture the true mean
