Big babies: The National Health Statistics Reports described a study in which a sample of 330 one-year-old baby boys were weighed. Their mean weight was 25.4 pounds with standard deviation 5.3 pounds. A pediatrician claims that the mean weight of one-year-old boys is greater than 25 pounds. Do the data provide convincing evidence that the pediatrician's claim is true?

In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering​ cholesterol, 49 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes​ (before minus​ after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol​ (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.8 and a standard deviation of 2.04. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that with garlic​ treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic​ treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative​ hypotheses, test​ statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 49 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.3 and a standard deviation of 16.4. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0.

Watching TV: In 2012, the General Social Survey asked a sample of 1318 people how much time they spent watching TV each day. The mean number of hours was 2.95 with a standard deviation of 2.63. A sociologist claims that people watch a mean of 3 hours of TV per day. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean hours of TV watched per day differs from the claim? Use the a= 0.01 level of significance and the critical value method. Part: 0 / 5 Part 1 of 5 State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. H: H₁ : This hypothesis test is a (Choose one) test. 0<0 ☐☐ X □<口 μ 0=0 Ś

In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering​ cholesterol, 50 subjects were treated with garlic in a processed tablet form. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes in their levels of LDL cholesterol​ (in mg/dL) have a mean of 3.2 and a standard deviation of 18.5. Complete parts​ (a) and​ (b) below. a) What is the best point estimate of the population mean net change in LDL cholesterol after the garlic​ treatment? b) Construct a 90​% confidence interval estimate of the mean net change in LDL cholesterol after the garlic treatment. What does the confidence interval suggest about the effectiveness of garlic in reducing LDL cholesterol? What is the confidence interval estimate of the population mean μ​?

In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 81 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.2 and a standard deviation of 17.2. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected.

The valve pressure was tested on 250 engines and the mean pressure was 5.9 lbs/square inch. Assume the variance is known to be 0.36. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 5.8 lbs/square inch, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level that the valve performs about the specifications?
