- A SRS of 18 statistics examinations was taken from a large normal population. The average score in the sample was 76.6 with a sample variance (not sample standard deviation) of 51.84. We are interested in determining whether the average grade of the population is significantly different from 70. It can thus be concluded that the average grade of the population is Group of answer choices is exactly 76.6 is exactly 70 significantly different than 70 not significantly different than 70arrow_forwardIn a study of pulse rates of men, a simple random sample of 150 men results in a standard deviation of 11.4 beats per minute. The normal range of pulse rates of adults is typically given as 60 to 100 beats per minute. If the range rule of thumb is applied to that normal range, the result is a standard deviation of 10 beats per minute. Use the sample results with a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that pulse rates of men have a standard deviation equal to 10 beats per minute; see the accompanying StatCrunch display for this test. What do the results indicate about the effectiveness of using the range rule of thumb with the "normal range" from 60 to 100 beats per minute for estimating o in this case? Assume that the simple random sample is selected from a normally distributed population. Click the icon to view the StatCrunch display. Let o denote population standard deviation of the pulse rates of men (in beats per minute). Identify the null and alternative hypotheses.

Test whether the true mean of all bags is under 10 pounds. Set up hypotheses. Perform the appropriate test by showing your formula. Interpret the results using a Type I (alpha) error of .05. Also provide the p value here. Also construct a 95% confidence interval around your sample mean (X bar) that should contain the true mean (mu). Also interpret this interval.arrow_forward
- A random sample of 100 observations from a population with standard deviation 19.09 yielded a sample mean of 93.4 Given that the null hypothesis is μ=90 and the alternative hypothesis is μ≠90 using α=.05, find the following:(a) Test statistic =(b) P - valuearrow_forwardThe average salary for American college graduates is $48,600. You suspect that the average is less for graduates from your college. The 49 randomly selected graduates from your college had an average salary of $46,486 and a standard deviation of $9,200. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.01 level of significance? For this study, we should use Select an answer t-test for a population mean z-test for a population proportion The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0:H0: ? p μ Select an answer = ≠ > < H1:H1: ? μ p Select an answer > ≠ = < The test statistic ? z t = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.)

For this study, we should use Correct The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0:H0: Correct Correct H1:H1: Correct The test statistic = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is αα Based on this, we should the null hypothesis. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... The data suggest that the population mean is not significantly less than 47,400 at αα = 0.05, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the population mean salary for singles is less than 47,400.
