A data set about speed dating includes "like" ratings of male dates made by the female dates. The summary statistics are n=188, x overbar=7.89, s=2.05. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the population mean of such ratings is less than 8.00. Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.
- What are the null and alternative hypotheses?
- Determine the test statistic ___ (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
- Determine the P-value ___ (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
- State the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.
▼ Reject, Fail to reject H0. There is▼ not sufficient, sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean of the population of ratings is ▼ equal to, not
greater than, less than, 8.00.

- Q6arrow_forwardDo male and female college students have the same distribution of living arrangements? Use a level of significance of 0.05. Suppose that 87 randomly selected male college students and 95 randomly selected female college students were asked about their living arrangements: dormitory, apartment, or other. The results are shown in Table. Do male and female college students have the same distribution of living arrangements? Dormitory Apartment Other Male 37 45 5 Female 38 37 20 What is the chi-square test-statistic for this data?χ2=arrow_forwardListed in the accompanying table are heights (in.) of mothers and their first daughters. The data pairs are from a journal kept by Francis Galton. Use the listed paired sample data, and assume that the samples are simple random samples and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that there is no difference in heights between mothers and their first daughters. Mother 64.0 66.0 63.0 62.0 66.5 66.0 65.0 60.0 67.0 63.0 Daughter 67.0 66.5 70.5 66.0 61.0 66.0 65.5 65.0 67.0 65.0 In this example, Hd is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of data, where each individual difference d is defined as the daughter's height minus the mother's height. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test? Ho: Ha = 0 in. H₁ Hd 0 in. (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) Identify the test statistic. t= (Round to two decimal places as needed.)arrow_forward
