Nationally, patients who go to the emergency room wait an average of 7 hours to be admitted into the hospital. Do patients at rural hospitals have a lower waiting time? The 10 randomly selected patients who went to the emergency room at rural hospitals waited an average of 6.2 hours to be admitted into the hospital. The standard deviation for these 10 patients was 1.6 hours. What can be concluded at the the αα = 0.01 level of significance level of significance?

- A bottler of coconut water found that adults in the US consume, on average, 75 servings of coconut water in one year. The bottler suspects that adults in the US, who are of South East Asian origin, drink less than the national average because they have tasted the real thing and find the bottled coconut water to taste artificial. A sample of 50 South East Asians yielded a sample mean of 72 servings and a sample standard deviation of 11 servings. Construct a null and alternate hypothesis that the bottling company can use to confirm their suspicion. Based on the sample data, and a 2% level of significance, what can they conclude? What would your conclusion be at a 1% level of significance?arrow_forwardIn a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 4949 subjects were treated with raw garlic.

Use a 0.010.01 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 00. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected.
