The breaking strength of hockey stick shafts made of two different graphite-kevlar composites yields the following results (in Newtons):
For Composite 1 the average and the standard deviation of the 14 hockey sticks are respectively 487.42 Newtons and 11.528 Newtons.
For Composite 2 the average and the standard deviation of the 12 hockey sticks are respectively 466.76 Newtons and 7.193 Newtons.
Use a 5% significance level to test the claim that the standard deviation of the breaking strength of hockey stick shafts made of graphite-kevlar composite 1 is different from the standard deviation of the breaking strength of hockey stick shafts made of graphite-kevlar composite 2.

Respuesta :

We don't have claim to strength of composite B is smaller than the strength of composite B by at least 2 [N].

From the given data we calculate μ₁s₁ and μ₂s₂ mean and standard deviation of samples A and B respectively.

μ₁ = 464.7, s₁ = 13.42 composite A

μ₂ = 479.49, s₂ = 13.38 composite B

n₁ : n₂ < 30 then we will use t-table.

Null hypothesis  H₀:μ₂-μ₁ ≥ 2

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ : μ₂ - μ₁ < 2

assuming CI 95%

α = 5% = 0.05

and degree of freedom is n₁ + n₂ - 2 = 9 + 9 - 2 = 16

then for the one tail t(c) = 1.746  

now we will compute t(s),

t(s) = (μ₂ - μ₁ - 2)/ sp×√1/n₁ + 1/n₂

sp²= (n₁ - 1) × s₁² + (n₂ - 1) × s₂² / n₁ + n₂ - 2

    = 8 × (13.42)² + 8 × (13.38)²/ 16

     = (8 × 180.1 + 8 × 179) / 16

sp² = 179.55

sp = 13.40

Therefore

t(s) = (479.49 - 464.7 - 2)/ 13.40 ×√1/9+1/9

     = 12.79 / 13.40 × 0.4714

     = 12.79 / 6.32

t(s) = 2.02

t(s) > t(c)

t(s) is rejection region.

Therefore we reject H₀

so we don't have evidence to claim to strength pf composite B is smaller than the strength of composite B at least 2 [N].
