The process is to prevent you from losing points on subsequent question/s because you made a mistake on some previous question/s.1Instructions:Use the information given below to answer the four (4) questions that follow:The Glen Valley Steel Company manufactures steel bars. If the production process is working properly, it turns out steel bars with an average length of at least 2.85 feet with a standard deviation of 0.20 foot (as determined from engineering specifications on the production equipment involved). Longer steel bars can be used or altered, but shorter bars must be scrapped.A sample of 25 bars is selected from the production line. The sample indicates an average length of 2.70 feet. The company wishes to determine whether the process is making short bars because if it is, then the production equipment needs an immediate adjustment. 1. State the null and alternative hypothesis.A. Ho: µ ≥ 2.85; Ha: µ < 2.85 *B. Ho: µ < 2.85; Ha: µ ≥ 2.85C. Ho: µ ≥ 2.85; Ha: µ ≠ 2.85D. Ho: µ = 2.85; Ha: µ ≠ 2.85E. Ho: µ ≥ 2.85; Ha: µ = 2.852. At the 5% level of significance, where is the Reject Ho region?A. To the left of Z = -1.645 *B. To the left of Z = -1.645 and to the right of Z = 1.645C. To the left of t = -1.328 and to the right of t = 1.328D. To the right of Z = 1.960E. To the left of Z = -1.9603. Assuming the calculated value of the test statistic is -1.05, what are the decision and conclusion of the test at the significance level of 0.05?A. Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the process is not making short bars.B. Reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the process is not making short bars. C. Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the process is making short bars.*D. Reject the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the process is not making short bars.E. Reject the alternative hypothesis, conclude the mean is significantly less than 2.8 feet.4. If the computed value of the test statistic is -1.96, what is the p-value?A. 0.0145B. 0.4909 C. 0.7188D. 0.0091E. 0.025*2Use the information given below to answer the three questions (3) that follow:In competing for voice over internet phone customers both Vonage and SunRocket (one of their competitors) claim to have the best rates for international calls. A consumer decided to test the claims by collecting and analyzing data for the price to call the same countries, from their Web sites. The rates offered by each company, in cents per minute, for international calls from the U.S. to 13 randomly selected countries and their statistical analysis are listed below. Is the data sufficient to show that the companies charge different mean rates?CountryVonage SunRocketArgentina 17 17Brazil 15 19Canada 3 2China 14 13France 10 6Germany 11 5Greece 12 16.3India 31 55Israel 13 9Italy 11 4Japan 13 7Korea 10 7Mexico 9 175. What are the decision and conclusionusing a dependent samples t-test if thetest is conducted at the 10% significancelevel?A. Reject the null hypothesisbecause p-value is greaterthan the significance level.B. Fail to reject the nullhypothesis, conclude the truemean rates are different.C. Reject the null hypothesis,conclude mean rates aredifferent.D. Fail to reject the null hypothesis, conclude there is insufficient evidence
