An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 140 engines and the mean pressure was 6.9 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population standard deviation is 0.7. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 6.8 psi. It is believed that the valve does not perform to the specifications. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 6.8 psi

For the alternative hypothesis,

µ ≠ 6.8

This is a 2 tailed test

Since the population standard deviation is given, z score would be determined from the normal distribution table. The formula is

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation

n = number of samples

From the information given,

µ = 6.8

x = 6.9

σ = 0.7

n = 140

z = (6.9 - 6.8)/(0.7/√140) = 0.17

Therefore, the value of the test statistic us 0.17

alright well the answers to your question is

step-by-step explanation:

steve should create a type of business report called a business plan. the correct option among the options that are already given in the question is the last or the fourth option. this business report created by steve will actually influence the investors about investing their money in steve's business. this business report will have all the details about the business, the amount of investment required and the amount of expected profit.
