- Suppose the manager agrees to pay each employee a$50bonus if they meet a certain goal. On a typical Saturday, the oil-change facility will perform 35 oil changes between 10 A.M. and 12 P.M. Treating this as a random sample, at what mean oil-change fime would there be a10%chance of being at or below? This will be the goal established by the manager. There would be a10%chance of being at or below minutes.arrow_forwardA researcher is interested in the amount of sleep an individual receives after consuming a sleeping aid (Melatonin, Valerian root, and Placebo). The researcher randomly selects individuals into either group. However, some individuals drop out of the study which results in unequal sample sizes.

Calculate the F-ratio.arrow_forwardSuppose we are interested in the relationship between individuals’ place of residence (rural versus urban) and their political affiliation (Republican versus Democrat). A random sample of 100 individuals yields the following crosstabulation: Political Affiliation Place of Residence Republican Democrat Rural 21 29 Urban 14 36 a) In words, what is the null hypothesis to be tested? b) Is the relationship between place of residence and political affiliation statistically significant at the .05 level? (Be sure to show the statistics that lead to your decision.) c) Compute and interpret an appropriate measure of association for the relationship between these two variables.arrow_forward
- A travel company is investigating whether the average cost of a hotel stay in a certain city has increased over the past year. The company recorded the cost of a one-night stay for a Friday night in January of the current year and in the previous year for 31 hotels selected at random. The difference in cost (current year minus previous year) was calculated for each hotel. Which of the following is the appropriate test for the company’s investigation? A one-sample zz-test for a population mean A A one-sample tt-test for a sample mean B A one-sample zz-test for a population proportion C A matched-pairs tt-test for a mean difference D A two-sample tt-test for a difference between means Earrow_forwardTwenty different statistic students are randomly selected.

- Suppose a 95% confidence interval for the difference in test scores between Class 1 and Class 2 (in that order) is the following: 9 +/− 2. These results were based on independent samples of size 100 from each class. Now suppose you switch the order of Class 1 and Class 2 in your analysis but keep the data labeled correctly in terms of which class they came from. Which of the following statements is false? A) You can't do it this way. You'll get negative numbers for the difference in the means and/or negative numbers for the standard error. B) You are confident that the average for Class 2 is 7 to 11 points lower than for Class 1. C) You are still confident that the classes have significantly different mean scores. D) Your 95% confidence interval will now be entirely negative: from −7 to −11.arrow_forward7)arrow_forwardAt ABC College it is estimated that at most 10% of the students use public transportation to the college.

In fact, the company advertises that a technician will arrive within 45 minutes after a service call is placed. One frustrated customer believes this is not accurate, claiming that it takes over 45 minutes for the cable technician to arrive. The customer asks a simple random sample of 25 other cable customers how long it has taken for the cable technician to arrive when they have called for one. The sample mean for this group is 47.9 minutes with a standard deviation of 7.6 minutes. Assume that the population distribution is approximately normal. Test the customer's claim at the 0.01 level of significance. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. Ho : μ = 45 Ha:μ 45arrow_forward
