Question

Transcribed Image Text:Use the following information to answer the question.
A random sample of 30 students from UCSC are selected from a normal
population with mu equal to 10 and sigma equal to 7. After a treatment
is administered to the students, the researcher calculated the sample
mean to be 13. Is there enough evidence to conclude that the treatment
had an increasing effect at the 5% significance level?
What hypothesis test is this?
Chi-Square Test for Independence
Two-Sample Z-Test for Mean
One-Sample Z-Test for Mean
One-Sample T-Test for Mean

- After conducting your one-sample z-test, you find an obtained z-statistic of 1.08 and a critical z-statistic of 1.64. What do you conclude? Group of answer choices Fail to reject the null hypothesis; the sample mean and population mean are significantly different. Reject the null hypothesis; the sample mean and population mean are significantly different. Fail to reject the null hypothesis; the sample mean and population mean are not significantly different. The results of the test are inconclusive.arrow_forwardYou wish to test the following daim (Ha) at a significance level of a = 0.05.

The valve was tested on 160 engines and the mean pressure was 7.7 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population variance is 0.36. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 7.8 psi, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level that the valve performs below the specifications? Step 2 of 3: Find the P-value for the hypothesis test. Round your answer to four decimal places.arrow_forward
