Nationally, patients who go to the emergency room wait an average of 7 hours to be admitted into the
hospital. Do patients at rural hospitals have a higher waiting time? The 14 randomly selected patients who
went to the emergency room at rural hospitals waited an average of 8.6 hours to be admitted into the
hospital. The standard deviation for these 14 patients was 2.3 hours. What can be concluded at the the a =
0.10 level of significance level of significance?
a. For this study, we should use Select an answer
b. The null and alternative hypotheses would be:
Ho: ?vSelect an answer v
H: ?vSelect an answer v
c. The test statistic ?
(please show your answer to 3 decimal places.)
d. The p-value =
(Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.)
e. The p-value is ? v a
f. Based on this, we should Select an answer v the null hypothesis.
g. Thus, the final conclusion is that ...
O The Nata suggest that the population mean awaiting time to be admitted into the hospital
from the emergency room for patients at rural hospitals is not significantly higher than 7 hours
at a = 0.10, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the population
mean waiting time to be admitted into the hospital from the emergency room for patients at
rural hospitals is higher than 7 hours.
O The data suggest the population mean is not significantly higher than 7 at a = 0.10, so there is
statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the population mean waiting time to be
admitted into the hospital from the emergency room for patients at rural hospitals is equal to
7 hours.
O The data suggest the populaton mean is significantly higher than 7 at a = 0.10, so there is
statistically significant evidence to conclude that the population mean waiting time to be
admitted into the hospital from the emergency room for patients at rural hospitals is higher
than 7 hours.
