A simple random sample of 41 men from a normally distributed population results in a standard deviation of 8.1 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

To compare the dry braking distances from 30 to 0 miles per hour for two makes of automobiles, a safety engineer conducts braking tests for 35 models of Make A and 35 models of Make B. The mean braking distance for Make A is 40 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.9 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 44 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.6 feet. At a = 0.10, can the engineer support the claim that the mean braking distances are different for the two makes of automobiles? Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e). Click here to view page 1 of the standard normal distribution table. Click here to view page 2 of the standard normal distribution table. (a) Identify the claim and state H, and Ha. What is the claim? A. The mean braking distance is different for the two makes of automobiles. B. The mean braking distance is less for Make A automobiles than Make B…

To compare the dry braking distances from 30 to 0 miles per hour for two makes of automobiles, a safety engineer conducts braking tests for 35 models of Make A and 35 models of Make B. The mean braking distance for Make A is 42 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.7 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 45 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.4 feet. At a = 0.10, can the engineer support the claim that the mean braking distances are different for the two makes of automobiles? Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. Complete parts (a) rari rz (b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s). The critical value(s) is/are (Round to three decimal places as needed. Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)

Suppose a researcher wants to test if the average diastolic blood pressure in Irish-Americans is different than the average diastolic blood pressure in the general population. Note that the average diastolic blood pressure in the general population is 70 mmHG. The researcher recruits 30 Irish-Americans into this particular study and then measures each of their diastolic blood pressures (mmHG). The population of this sample has a standard deviation equal to 3.0. What is the two-sided alternative hypothesis? (in words) Group of answer choices The mean is different than 70 The mean is different than 73 The mean is greater than 70 The mean is greater than 73

It takes an average of 10.2 minutes for blood to begin clotting after an injury. An EMT wants to see if the average will decline if the patient is immediately told the truth about the injury. The EMT randomly selected 60 injured patients to immediately tell the truth about the injury and noticed that they averaged 10.1 minutes for their blood to begin clotting after their injury. Their standard deviation was 1.62 minutes. What can be concluded at the the a = 0.01 level of significance? a. For this study, we should use Select an answer b. The null and altemative hypotheses would be: Họ: Select an answer H1: ? Select an answer c. The test statistic (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) d. The p-value = e. The p-value is (? va f. Based on this, we should Select an answer v the null hypothesis. g. Thus, the final conclusion is that .. (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) O The data suggest the population mean is not significantly less than 10.2 at a = 0.01, so there is…

The standard deviation of pulse rates of adult males is less than 10  bpm. For a random sample of 144 adult​ males, the pulse rates have a standard deviation of  9.1 bpm. Find the value of the test statistic.

The heights of adult men in America are normally distributed, with a mean of 69.6 inches and a standa deviation of 2.61 inches. The heights of adult women in America are also normally distributed, but with mean of 64.7 inches and a standard deviation of 2.56 inches. If a man is 6 feet 3 inches tall, what is his Z-score (to two decimal places)?

A random sample of 100 observations from a quantitative population produced a sample mean of 28.0 and a sample standard deviation of 6.5. Use the p-value approach to determine whether the population mean is different from 31.

The time to smoke fish is normally distributed with an average of 5.3 hours and a standard deviation of 2.1 hours. What is the z score for a fish that take 10 hours to smoke?

Pyramid Lake is on the Paiute Indian Reservation in Nevada. The lake is famous for cutthroat trout. Suppose a friend tells you that the average length of trout caught in Pyramid Lake isμ=19 inches. However, a survey reported that of a simple random sample of 38 fish caught, the mean length was 19.9 inches, with estimated standard deviation of 3.1 inches. Do these data indicate that the average length of a trout caught in Pyramid Lake is different from μ=19inches? Use α=0.001. What is the value of the test statistic? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)Find the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
