Question

Cindy is a server at a local restaurant who makes, on average, $58 in tips per daytime shift. Cindy thinks she will make more if she moves to the nighttime shift. Her manager will choose five random nighttime shifts for Cindy to work. Cindy plans to conduct a significance test on the hypotheses H0: mu = 58; Ha: mu > 58 at the alpha = 0.05 level, where is the true mean amount of tips Cindy will make working nighttime shifts.

Are the conditions for performing the test met?

No, the 10% condition is not met.

No, the sample size is too small, and a Normal distribution cannot be assumed.

Yes, all conditions are met for performing a significance test about the mean.

Yes, only the random condition must be met in order to perform a significance test.

No, there is no way the manager could choose a random sample of shifts to work.

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
