Question

Quarters are currently minted with weights normally distributed and having a standard deviation of 0.061. New equipment is being tested in an attempt to improve quality by reducing variation. A simple random sample of 27 quarters obtained from those manufactured using the new equipment has a standard deviation of 0.041. Use a significance level of 0.05 to test the claim that quarters manufactured with the new equipment have weights less than 0.061. Write the claim mathematically and identify H0 and Ha: H0: μ ≥ 0.061 (Claim) Ha: μ < 0.061 (Claim) Find the critical value(s): (Use comma separated answers if needed. Round to three decimal places if needed.) Identify the rejection region(s): Use the t-test to find the standardized test statistic, t = (x̄ - μ) / (s / √n) Round to three decimal places if needed. (d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis: Reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic falls in the rejection region. Fail to reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic does not fall in the rejection region. Interpret the decision in the context of the original claim: Since the null hypothesis is rejected, the new equipment appears to be more effective in reducing the weight variation of the quarters.

Write the claim mathematically and identify H0 and Ha:
H0: μ ≥ 0.061 (Claim)
Ha: μ < 0.061 (Claim)

Find the critical value(s):
(Use comma separated answers if needed. Round to three decimal places if needed.)

Identify the rejection region(s):
Use the t-test to find the standardized test statistic,
t = (x̄ - μ) / (s / √n)
Round to three decimal places if needed.

(d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis:
Reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic falls in the rejection region. Fail to reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic does not fall in the rejection region.

Interpret the decision in the context of the original claim:
Since the null hypothesis is rejected, the new equipment appears to be more effective in reducing the weight variation of the quarters.
