g A manufacturer of nickel-hydrogen batteries randomly selects 100 nickel plates for test cells, cycles them a specified number of times, and determines that 11 of the plates have blistered. Does this provide compelling evidence for concluding that more than 10% of all plates blister under such circumstances

Complete Question

A manufacturer of nickel-hydrogen batteries randomly selects 100 nickel plates for test cells, cycles them a specified number of times, and determines that 11 of the plates have blistered. Does this provide compelling evidence for concluding that more than 10% of plates blister under such circumstances?

A) State H_0 and H_a, (5 pts)

B) Test the hypothesis using the P-Value approach at a significance level of 4%: (15 pts)

Expert Answer

a)

b) We fail to reject Null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size n=100

No. with blistered x=11

a)

Generally the Hypothesis given as

b)

Since p=0.10

Therefore

Test statistics

From table

Therefore

P-value >0.04 significance level

Hence,We cannot conclude that at significance level the proportion is greater than

We fail to reject Null hypothesis

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752

if i put something wrong your not gonna like it so rather not say nothing.
