I purchased the fastest internet speed I could. The local company promised me 1.0 Gbps speed on average. I tested my connection once, and got 0.8 Gbps. If I assume that connection speeds follow an exponential distribution, and I use the test of hypothesis framework, does my single observation provide evidence that my true average internet speed is less than the 1.0 Gbps claimed? Use a 10% significance level.

A group of migraine headache sufferers were tracked over their lifetimes with data taken every 10 years. The scatter plot shows the number of headaches per year versus age, in years. How would you estimate the number of headaches at age 100? Question 2 options: Draw a line of best fit and interpolate. Wait until a sufficient number of subjects have reached the age of 100. Draw a line of best fit and extrapolate. Use the number from age 80 and divide by 2.

A certain type of battery supercharger was found to take a mean of 15.4 minutes to charge a standard electric vehicle (EV) battery. A firmware update for this type of supercharger was recently released, but the update has received negative reviews from users. A researcher suspects the mean time the updated superchargers take to charge a standard EV battery is greater than 15.4 minutes. To test his claim, he chooses 15 of the updated superchargers at random and measures the time it takes each one to charge a standard EV battery. He finds that the superchargers take a sample mean of 16.1 minutes to charge a standard EV battery, with a sample standard deviation of 1.8 minutes. Assume that the population of amounts of time to charge a standard EV battery using the updated superchargers is approximately normally distributed. Complete the parts below to perform a hypothesis test to see if there is enough evidence, at the 0.05 level of significance, to support the claim that u, the mean time…
Water specimens are taken from water used for cooling as it is being discharged from a power plant into a river. It has been determined that as long as the mean temperature of the discharge is at most 150F, there will be no negative effects on the river's ecosystem. To investigage whether the plant is in compliance with regulations that prohibit a mean discharge water temperature above 150F, researchers will take 50 specimens at randomly selected times and record the temperature of each specimen. The resulting data will be used to test the hypotheses:H0:μ≤150FH0:μ≤150F Ha:μ>150FHa:μ>150F.(a) In the context of this problem, describe Type I and Type II errors.Type I Error:Select an answer A Type I error is not obtaining convincing evidence that the mean water temperature is greater than 150F when in fact it is greater than 150F.

The Management Department recently purchased a smallcopier for faculty use. Although the workload of the office staff has improved somewhat, the secretaries are still mak-ing too many trips to the Dean’s office when the depart-mental copier is out of service. Sylvia, the departmental secretary, has been keeping track of failure rates and ser-vice times. With a mean time between failures of 100 hours and a mean time to repair of 24 hours, how much of thetime is the new copier available for faculty use?
a consumer product magazine recently ran a story concerning the increasing prices of digital cameras. the story stated that digital camera prices dipped a couple of years ago, but are now beginning to increase in price because of added features. according to the story, the average price of all digital cameras a couple of years ago was $215.00. a random sample of cameras was recently taken and entered into a spreadsheet. it was desired to test to determine if that average price of all digital cameras is now more than $215.00. what null and alternative hypothesis should be tested?
A researcher hypothesizes that different colors of cars result in different average speeds. To test this claim, she took a random sample of 20 people who own 4 different colors of colors of cars (n = 20, N = 80, G = 4), and she then tracks their average speed on the highway for a week of driving. The following ANOVA table has some of her results. Please help her answer her research questions by completing the following ANOVA table below and answering the follow-up questions.

A psychology student conducted a study on using a chief executive officer's facial structure to predict a firm's financial performance. The facial width-to-height ratio (WHR) for each in a sample of 55 CEOs at publicly traded firms was determined. The sample resulted in x=1.74 and s=2.02. The student wants to predict the financial performance of a firm based on the value of the true mean facial WHR of CEOs. The student wants to use the value of μ=2.3. Do you recommend he use this value? Conduct a test of hypothesis for μ to help you answer the question. Specify all the elements of the test, including H0, Ha, test statistic, p-value, and your conclusion. Test at α=0.10. Find the p-value. p-value=enter your response here (
