- Suppose that X~N(5000,400). You're considering taking a simple random sample and calculating the average of your sample. The Central Limit Theorem tells us that the distribution of all possible sample averages is Normally distributed with a mean of 5000.

- The average wait time to get seated at a popular restaurant in the city on a Friday night is 12 minutes. Is the mean wait time greater for men who wear a tie? Wait times for 13 randomly selected men who were wearing a tie are shown below. Assume that the distribution of the population is normal. 13, 13, 11, 13, 13, 13, 13, 10, 12, 13, 13, 10, 13 What can be concluded at the the αα = 0.05 level of significance level of significance? The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0 = (p,u) (<,>,=,not equal) to _____ H1 = (p,u) (<,>,=,not equal) to _____ The test statistic (t,z) = ___ The p-value = _____ Thus, the final conclusion is that ... The data suggest that the population mean wait time for men who wear a tie is not significantly more than 12 at αα = 0.05, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the population mean wait time for men who wear a tie is more than 12.
