Question

Interstate Speeds It has been reported that the standard deviation of the speeds of drivers on Interstate 75 near Findlay, Ohio, is 8

miles per hour for all vehicles. A driver feels from experience that this is very low. A survey is conducted, and for

29 drivers the standard deviation is 9.9 miles per hour. At =α0.10, is the driver correct? Assume the variable is normally distributed.

State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis. H0: H1:

Claim or Not a Claim?

This Hypothesis test is one-tailed or two-tailed?

What is the Critical Value?

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
