A simple random sample of 50 men from a normally distributed population results in a standard deviation of 12.2 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. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below. O A. Ho: o2 10 beats per minute O B. Ho: o = 10 beats per minute H: o<10 beats per minute H,: 0+ 10 beats per minute O C. Ho: o+ 10 beats per minute O D. Ho: o = 10 beats per minute H: 0 = 10 beats per minute H4:0< 10 beats per minute b. Compute the test statistic. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) c. Find the P-value. P-value = (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

In the 1800s, German physician Carl Reinhold, took millions of axillary (i.e. armpit) temperatures from soldiers. This study established that body temperature is normally distributed and the standard normal human body temperature is 98.6°F with a standard deviation of 0.72 °F. In a recent study, American researchers obtained 5,000 axillary temperatures from a Los Angeles hospital. The mean of these temperature readings was 97.9 °F. Assuming a Type I error risk of no more than 5%, did the findings support the theory that human, body temperature has decreased since the 1800s? What is the Z crit?

In a large section of a statistics​ class, the points for the final exam are normally​ distributed, with a mean of 74 and a standard deviation of 8. Grades are assigned such that the top​ 10% receive​ A's, the next​ 20% received​ B's, the middle​ 40% receive​ C's, the next​ 20% receive​ D's, and the bottom​ 10% receive​ F's. Find the lowest score on the final exam that would qualify a student for an​ A, a​ B, a​ C, and a D. The lowest score that would qualify a student for an A is nothing. ​(Round up to the nearest integer as​ needed.) The lowest score that would qualify a student for a B is nothing. ​(Round up to the nearest integer as​ needed.) The lowest score that would qualify a student for a C is nothing. ​(Round up to the nearest integer as​ needed.) The lowest score that would qualify a student for a D is nothing. ​(Round up to the nearest integer as​ needed.)

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…
