Module # 5 assignment
Issaiah Jennings Module # 5 assignment Question 1: The director of manufacturing at a cookies company needs to determine whether a new machine is able to produce a particular type of cookies according to the manufacturer's specifications, which indicate that cookies should have a mean of 70 and standard deviation of 3.5 pounds. A sample of 49 cookies reveals a sample mean breaking strength of 69.1 pounds. A. State the null and alternative hypothesis H₀: μ = 70, H₁: μ ≠ 70 B. Is there evidence that the machine is not meeting the manufacturer's specifications for average strength? Use a 0.05 level of significance z=493.569.1−70=0.5−0.9=−1.8 Population mean (μ₀) = 70 Sample mean (x̄) = 69.1 Sample size (n) = 49 Standard deviation (σ) = 3.5 Significance level (α) = 0.05 > z <- -1.8 > p_value <- 2 * pnorm(-abs(z)) > p_value [1] 0.07186064 The p-value (0.0719) is greater than the significance level (0.05), we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
