In order to justify this claim for the Ferengi a sample of 16 coils is taken. For this sample set, the mean warp phase flux is found to be 73.7 cochranes with a sample measured standard deviation of 12 cochranes. Is this claim justified at the two-sided 95% or 90% levels? (Derive and define the appropriate values to show true or false for each of the levels. Eg. Is the found mean within the allowed range?)

The responses to these question can be defined as follows:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]n = 16\\\\ \bar{x}= 73.7\\\\\sigma = 12\\\\a = 0.05\ or\ a = 0.10\\\\H_{o} \ : \mu = 68\\\\H_{a} \ : \mu \neq 68\\\\a = 0.05\\\\[/tex]

critical values [tex]=\pm t0.025,15 = \pm 2.131\\\\[/tex]

[tex](n-1) = 15^{\circ}\\\\a = 0.10\\\\[/tex]

critical values[tex]= \pm t0.05,15 = \pm 1.753\\\\[/tex]

[tex](n-1) = 15^{\circ}\\\\[/tex]

Testing the statistic values:

[tex]t = \frac{x-\mu_{0}}{ \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}\\\\[/tex]

  [tex]= \frac{73.7-68}{(\frac{12}{\sqrt{16}})}\\\\\ = \frac{5.7}{(\frac{12}{4})}\\\\ = \frac{5.7}{(3)}\\\\ = 1.9\\[/tex]

Test statistic ta [tex]= -1.90\ lies[/tex]

The critical values[tex]\pm t_{0.05,15} =\pm 1.753[/tex]

It is in the region of dismissal. We dismiss the 10% significant null hypothesis.

[tex]t_a = 1.90 \\\\df = 15\\\\a = 0.05\\\\p-value = 076831\\\\[/tex]

P - value is greater than the level of significance a= 0.05  

Null hypothesis we don't reject. At a 95% level, the claim is justified.

[tex]t_a = 1.90\\\\ df = 15\\\\ a = 0.10\\\\p-value = 076831\\\\[/tex]

P - value below the meaning level a = 0.10, we reject the hypothesis null. At a level of 90% the claim is not justified.
