Question 2

A machine produces pipes used in airplanes. The average length of the pipe is 16 inches. The acceptable variance for the length is .3 inches. A sample of 25 pipes was taken. The average length in the sample was 15.95 inches with a variance of .4 inches.
 a. Construct a 95 confidence interval for the population variance.
  b. State the null and alternative hypotheses to test whether or not the population variance equals .3 inches.
  c. Compute the test statistic.
  d. The null hypothesis is to be tested at the 5 level of significance. State the decision rule for the test using the critical value approach.
  e. What do you conclude about the population variance?

Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

a. .244 to .774
b. H0: 2 = .3
Ha: 2  .3
c. 32
d. Do not reject H0 if 12.401 < chi-square < 39.364
Reject H0 if chi-square  39.364 or if chi-square  12.401
e. Do not reject H0; no evidence to conclude that the population variance is different from .3 inches.
