- A sample of 34 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean is 45, and the population standard deviation is 5. Conduct the following test of hypothesis using the 0.02 significance level.

(Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)arrow_forwardWe want to conduct a hypothesis test of the claim that the population mean time it takes drivers to react following the application of brakes by the driver in front of them is less than 2.2 seconds. So, we choose a random sample of reaction time measurements. The sample has a mean of 2.3 seconds and a standard deviation of 0.5 seconds. For each of the following sampling scenarios, choose an appropriate test statistic for our hypothesis test on the population mean. Then calculate that statistic. Round your answers to two decimal places. (a) The sample has size 12, and it is from a population with a distribution about which we know very little. O z = O t = O It is unclear which test statistic to use. (b) The sample has size 11, and it is from a normally distributed population with a known standard deviation of 0.40. O z = O t = O It is unclear which test statistic to use.arrow_forwardUse technology to find the P-value for the hypothesis test described below. The claim is that for 12 AM body temperatures, the mean is µ< 98.6°F. The sample size is n = 7 and the test statistic is t= P-value = (Round to three decimal places as needed.) hsarrow_forward
- A sample mean, sample standard deviation, and sample size are given. Use the one-mean t-test to perform the required hypothesis test about the mean, μ, of the population from which the sample was drawn. Use the critical-value approach. Sample mean = 7.1 s = 2.3 n = 18 α = 0.01 H0: µ = 10 H1: µ < 10 The critical value(s) is/are (If there are two critical values separate each with a comma and list from smallest to largest)arrow_forwardAn IQ test is designed so that the mean is 100 and the standard deviation is 13 for the population of normal adults. Find the sample size necessary to estimate the mean IQ score of statistics students such that it can be said with 95% confidence that the sample mean is within 5 IQ points of the true mean. Assume that o = 13 and determine the required sample size using technology. Then determine if this is a reasonable sample size for a real world calculation. The required sample size is. (Round up to the nearest integer.) Would it be reasonable to sample this number of students? No. This number of IQ test scores is a fairly small number. No. This number of IQ test scores is a fairly large number. Yes. This number of IQ test scores is a fairly small number. Yes. This number of IQ test scores is a fairly large number.arrow_forwardYou are a researcher verifying the claim that the average adult consumes 1.7 cups of coffee per day. The population standard deviation is 0.5 cups per day. You sample 30 adults and find the average is 1.85 cups per day. Test the claim above at the alpha = 0.05 significance level.
