A manufacturer produces crankshafts for an automobile
Chapter 9, Problem 43E(choose chapter or problem)
A manufacturer produces crankshafts for an automobile engine. The crankshafts wear after 100,000 miles inch) is of interest because it is likely to have an impact on warranty claims. A random sample of \(n=15\) shafts is tested and \(\bar{x}=2.78\). It is known that \(\sigma=0.9\) and that wear is normally distributed.
(a) Test \(H_0:\ \mu=3\) versus \(H_1:\ \mu\ne3\) using \(\alpha=0.05\).
(b) What is the power of this test if \(\mu=3.25\)?
(c) What sample size would be required to detect a true mean of if we wanted the power to be at least ?
