Question
If 26 of 200 tires of brand A failed to last 30,000 miles,
whereas the corresponding figures for 200 tires of brands
B, C, and D were 23, 15, and 32, test the null hypothe-
sis that there is no difference in the durability of the four
kinds of tires at the 0.05 level of significance.

- The average amount of time it takes for couples to further communicate with each other after their first date has ended is 2.35 days. Is this average different for blind dates? A researcher interviewed 70 couples who had recently been on blind dates and found that they averaged 2.5 days to communicate with each other after the date was over. Their standard devlation was 0.655 days. What can be concluded at the the a = 0.10 level of significance? a. For this study, we should use Select an answer b. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: ?v Select an answerv H: ?vSelect an answerv c. The test statistic ?v (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 answerv the null hypothesis. g. Thus, the final conclusion is that ...

(each value is the elapsed time between the release of a strip of paper and the instant that it is caught by the subject.) REsults from five of the students are includedin the graph. Use a significance level to test the claim that there is no difference between the reaction times on the right and left hands.What are the hypothesis for this test?What is the test satistic?

Suppose that, in a more recent poll, 422 of 1145 adults with children under the age of 18 reported that their family ate dinner together seven nights a week. Is there sufficient evidence that the proportion of families with children under the age of 18 who eat dinner together seven nights a week has decreased? Use the x = 0.01 significance level.

- The work week for adults in the US that work full time is normally distributed with a mean of 47 hours. A newly hired engineer at a start-up company believes that employees at start-up companies work more on average then most working adults in the US. She asks 12 engineering friends at start-ups for the lengths in hours of their work week. Their responses are shown in the table below. Test the claim using a α=0.05 level of significance. Give answer to at least 4 decimal places. Hours 48 41 60 55 48 68 53 55 50 49 54 52 What are the correct hypotheses?

The city wishes to see if there is evidence to show that the first neighborhood (low income) has a higher level support for the tax compared to the second neighborhood (middle income). You wish to test the following claim (H) at a significance level of a = 0.01. Ho:p₁ Ha: P1 = P2 P2 You obtain a sample from the first population with 436 successes and 321 failures.
