Two machines are used for filling plastic bottles to a net volume of 16.0 ounces. A member of the quality engineering staff suspects that the machines are not filling to the same net volume. An experiment was conducted to obtain random samples (n=10) from each machine. The data are shown below.
1. Analyze this data to determine if the quality engineer is correct. Begin by performing an appropriate test to determine if the variances can be assumed equal (verify necessary assumptions and provide evidence). Use 5% significance for all tests.
Machine 1 Machine 2
16.03 16.01 16.02 16.03
16.04 15.96 15.97 16.04
16.05 15.98 15.96 16.02
16.05 16.02 16.01 16.01
16.02 15.99 15.99 16.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to test if the two machines are filling the bottles with a net volume of 16.0 ounces or if at least one of them is different.

The parameter of interest is μ₁ - μ₂, if both machines are filling the same net volume this difference will be zero, if not it will be different.

You have one sample of ten bottles filled by each machine and the net volume of the bottles are measured, determining two variables of interest:

Sample 1 - Machine 1

X₁: Net volume of a plastic bottle filled by the machine 1.

n₁= 10

X[bar]₁= 16.02

S₁= 0.03

Sample 2 - Machine 2

X₂: Net volume of a plastic bottle filled by the machine 2

n₂= 10

X[bar]₂= 16.01

S₂= 0.03

With p-values 0.4209 (for X₁) and 0.6174 (for X₂) for the normality test and using α: 0.05, we can say that both variables of interest have a normal distribution:

X₁~N(μ₁;δ₁²)

X₂~N(μ₂;δ₂²)

Both population variances are unknown you have to conduct a homogeneity of variances test to see if they are equal (if they are you can conduct a pooled t-test) or different (if the variances are different you have to use the Welche's t-test)

H₀: δ₁²/δ₂²=1

H₁: δ₁²/δ₂²≠1

α: 0.05

Using a statistic software I've calculated the test

p-value 0.6168

The p-value is greater than the significance level, so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis then you can conclude that both population variances for the net volume filled in the plastic bottles by machines 1 and 2 are equal.

To study the difference between the population means you can use

The hypotheses of interest are:

H₀: μ₁ - μ₂ = 0

H₁: μ₁ - μ₂ ≠ 0

α: 0.05

The p-value for this test is: 0.882433

The p-value is greater than the significance level, the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

Using a significance level of 5%, there is no significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis. You can conclude that the population average of the net volume of the plastic bottles filled by machine one and by machine 2 are equal.

I hope this helps!

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
