Answer: (B)


Q2. A random sample of size 10 is taken from a normal population and the values are:
9.7 1267 11.81 7.89 11.18 10.83 1298 1256 13.05 8.43

(A) 1.86 and 2.262
(B) 1.51 and 2.228
(C) 1.68 and 2.262
(D) 1.15 and 2.228

Q3. A random sample of size 12 is taken from a normal population with mean u and variance o2. Let X and S2 be the sample mean and sample variance respectively and T = Vn (X-u0/S). For testing H0: u = u0 -versus H1: u # u0 at 5% level of significance, the test is to
(A) Reject H0 if T >= 2.179
(B) Reject H0 if T <= 2.179
(C) Reject H0 if | T | <= 2.201
(D) Reject H0 if | T | >= 2.201

Answer: (D) Reject H0 if | T | >= 2.201


Q4. Two machines are utilized to fill 12-ounce net volume plastic bottles. The filling processes can be assumed to be independently normally distributed with means u1,u2 and standard deviations 01 = 0.018 and 02 = 0.021 respectively. An experiment is performed by taking random samples of size 5 from the output of each machine. For testing the hypothesis H0:u1 H0: u1 not equals to u2, find the value of the test statistic.
