The article "uncertainty estimation in railway track life-cycle cost"† presented the following data on time to repair (min) a rail break in the high rail on a curved track of a certain railway line.
159 120 480 149 270 547 340 43 228 202 240 218
a normal probability plot of the data shows a reasonably linear pattern, so it is plausible that the population distribution of repair time is at least approximately normal. the sample mean and standard deviation are 249.7 and 145.1, respectively.
(a) is there compelling evidence for concluding that true average repair time exceeds 200 min? carry out a test of hypotheses using a significance level of 0.05.
state the appropriate hypotheses.
h0: μ > 200
ha: μ = 200h0: μ < 200
ha: μ = 200 h0: μ = 200
ha: μ ≠ 200h0: μ = 200
ha: μ > 200h0: μ = 200
ha: μ < 200
calculate the test statistic and determine the p-value. (round your test statistic to two decimal places and your p-value to four decimal places.)
t =
p-value =
what can you conclude?
there is compelling evidence that the true average repair time exceeds 200 min.
there is not compelling evidence that the true average repair time exceeds 200 min.
(b) using
σ = 150,
what is the type ii error probability of the test used in (a) when true average repair time is actually 300 min? that is, what is β(300)? (round your answer to two decimal places.)
β(300) =

Heather is writing a quadratic function that represents a parabola that touches but does not cross the x-axis at x = -6. which function could heather be writing? fx) = x2 + 36x + 12 = x2 - 36x - 12 f(x) = -x + 12x + 36 f(x) = -x? - 12x - 36

Design an er diagram for keeping track of information about votes taken in the u. s. house of representatives during the current two-year congressional session. the database needs to keep track of each u. s. state's name (e. g., texas', new york', california') and include the region of the state (whose domain is {northeast', midwest', southeast', southwest', west'}). each congress person in the house of representatives is described by his or her name, plus the district represented, the start date when the congressperson was first elected, and the political party to which he or she belongs (whose domain is {republican', democrat', 'independent', other'}). the database keeps track of each bill (i. e., proposed law), including the bill name, the date of vote on the bill, whether the bill passed or failed (whose domain is {yes', no'}), and the sponsor (the congressperson(s) who sponsored - that is, proposed - the bill). the database also keeps track of how each congressperson voted on each bill (domain of vote attribute is {yes', no', abstain', absent'}). additional information:
