100 wires are sampled from this population. What is the probability that the average number
of flaws per wire in this sample is less than 0.5?
Solution: Given that,
Mean of X = 0(0.48) + 1(0.39) + 2(0.12) + 3(0.01)=0.66
Variance of X =[ 02(0.48) + 12(0.39) + 22(0.12) + 32(0.01) ] (0.66)2 = 0.5244
If n=100, the mean of X is 0.66 and the variance of X is 0.5244/100 = 0.005244
So, P ( X 0.5) P ( Z

Solution: Given that, the mean of X is 22.3 and the variance of X is 16

If n = 64, the mean of X is 22.3 and the variance of X is 16/64 = 0.25

- One Population
A manufacturer of sprinkler systems used for fire protection in office buildings claims that
the true average system- activation temperature is 1300. A sample of 9 systems, when tested
yields an average activation temperature of 131.080F. If the distribution of activation times is
normal with standard deviation 1.50F, does the data contradict the firms claim at level of
significance a = 0.01. What is the P-value for this test?
A random sample of 50 battery packs is selected and subjected to a life test. The average life
of these batteries is 4.05 hours. Assume that the battery life is normally distributed with
standard deviation equals 0.2 hour. Is there evidence to support the claim that mean battery
life exceeds 4 hours? Use a = 0.05. What is the P-value for this test?
Exercise 3:
A new cure has been developed for a certain type of cement that results in a compressive
strength of 5000 kilograms per square centimeter with a standard deviation of 120 kilograms
follow the normal distribution. To test the null hypothesis that = 5000 against the
alternative that < 5000, a random sample of 50 pieces of cement is observed. The critical
region is defined to be X < 4970.
(a) Find the probability of committing a type I error when H0 is true.
(b) Evaluate (the probability of type II error) if = 4960

A civil engineer is analyzing the compressive strength of concrete. Compressive strength is
approximately normally distributed with variance 2 = 1000psi2. A random sample of 12
specimens has a mean compressive strength of x
=3255.42 psi.
(a) Test the hypothesis that mean compressive strength is 3500psi. Use a fixed-level test
with =0.01;
(b) What is the smallest level of significance at which you would be willing to reject the null
hypothesis?;
(c) Construct a 95% two-sided CI on mean compressive strength; and
(d) Construct a 99% two-sided CI on mean compressive strength. Compare the width of this
confidence interval with the width of the one in part (c). What is your comment?
Solution:
(a) (i) The parameter of interest is the true mean compressive strength, .
(ii) The hypothesis Testing:

Decision:

(vi) Result and conclusion:
Since -26.79 < -2.58, so we reject the null hypothesis and conclude the true mean
compressive strength is significantly different from 3500 at = 0.01.
(b) The smallest level of significance at which we are willing to reject the null hypothesis is
P-value = 2[1 - (26.84)]=2[1-1]=0
(c) A 95% two-sided CI on mean compressive strength is

With 95% confidence, we believe the true mean compressive strength is between
3237.53psi and 3273.31psi.
(d) A 99% two-sided CI on mean compressive strength is
With 99% confidence, we believed that the true mean compressive strength is between
3231.96 psi and 3278.88 psi.
The 99% confidence interval is wider than the 95% confidence interval.
We can conclude that the confidence interval with the larger level of confidence will
always result in a wider confidence interval when x , 2, and n are held constant.
A new process for producing synthetic diamonds can be operated at a profitable level only if
the average weight of the diamonds is greater than 0.5 karat. To evaluate the profitability of
11
the process, six diamonds are generated with recorded weights, 0.46, 0.61, .52, .48, .57 and .
54 karat.

(c) Construct a 95% CI on the average weight of diamonds.

One of the Cigarette Company claims that their cigarettes contain an average of only 10mg

exceeds 10mg. using the P-value approach;
(b) Construct a 95% two-sided CI on the average tar content of cigarettes.
Solution:

=2.778 falls between two values: 2.492 for which =0.01 and 2.797 for which
=0.005. So the P-value is : 0.005 < P < 0.01. Since P<0.05, thus we reject H0 and
conclude that the mean tar content of the cigarette exceeds 10mg.

Regardless of age, about 20% of Malaysian adults participate in fitness activities at least
twice a week. In a local survey of 100 adults over 40 years old, a total of 15 people indicated
that they participated in a fitness activity at least twice a week.
(a) Do these data indicate that the participation rate for adults over 40 years of age is
significantly less than 20%? Carry out a test at 10% significance level and draw

programs is greater than it was one year ago. Use a 5% significance level.

(v) Decision:

(vi) Conclusion:
Since 1.449 < 1.645, thus we do not reject the null hypothesis and
conclude that 45% of the population who participate in recycling program
is true at the 0.05 level of significance.

the city had been undervalued by the county tax assessors office. In a follow-up story the
local newspaper reported that it had taken random sample of 91 private homes. Using
professional evaluator to evaluate the property and checking against county tax records it
found that 14 of the homes had been undervalued.

Exercise 8:
Two companies manufacture a rubber material intended for use in an automotive application.
25 samples of material from each company are tested, and the amount of wear after 1000
cycles are observed. For company 1, the sample mean and standard deviation of wear are
x1 20.12mg / 1000cycles and s1 1.9mg / 1000cycles

and for company 2, we obtain x2 11.64mg / 1000cycles and s2 7.9mg / 1000cycles
(a) Do the sample data support the claim that the two companies produce material with
different mean wear? Assume each population is normally distributed but unequal
variances?
(b) Construct a 95% CI for the difference in mean wear of these two companies. Interpret
this interval.

Professor A claims that a probability and statistics student can increase his or her score on
tests if the person is provided with a pre-test the week before the exam. To test her theory she
selected 16 probability and statistics students at random and gave these students a pre-test the
week before an exam. She also selected an independent random sample of 12 students who
were given the same exam but did not have access to the pre-test. The first group had a mean
score of 79.4 with standard deviation 8.8. The second group had sample mean score 71.2
with standard deviation 7.9.
(i) Do the data support Professor A claims that the mean score of students who get a pre-test
are different from the mean score of those who do not get a pre test before an exam. Use
the P-value approach and assume that their variances are not equal.
(ii) Construct a 95% CI for the difference in mean score of students who get a pre-test and
those who do not get a pre-test before an exam. Interpret this interval.

A vote is to be taken among residents of a town and the surrounding county to determine
whether a proposed chemical plant should be constructed. If 120 of 200 town voters favour

of town voters favouring the proposal is higher than the proportion of county voters? Use a =
