Problem#6 19. Age of Death-Row Inmates In 2002, the mean age of an in- mate on death row was 40.7 years, according to data obtained from the U.S. Department of Justice. A sociologist wondered whether the mean age of a death-row inmate has changed since then. She randomly selects 32 death-row inmates and finds that their mean age is 38.9, with a standard deviation of 9.6. Construct a 95% confidence interval about the mean age. What does the interval imply? Answers: Fail to Reject Ho: t(critical) = -2.0395, t-value = -1.06. Cl = 42.36 - 35.44

Suppose that the proportion of investors who are risk-averse (that is, try to avoid risk in their investment decisions) is though to be at least 0.6. A financial advisor believes that the proportion is actually less than 0.6. A survey of 33 investors found that 21 of them were risk-averse. Formulate a one-sample hypothesis test for a proportion to test this belief. ... Determine the null hypothesis, Ho, and the alternative hypothesis, H,. Họ: H;: (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) Compute the test statistic. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Find the p-value for the test. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) State the conclusion at the 0.05 level of significance. The p-value is the chosen value of a, so the null hypothesis. There is evidence to conclude that the proportion of investors who are risk-averse is not at least 0.6.

8. Commuting Times The U.S. Census Bureau reports that the average commuting time for citizens of both Baltimore, Maryland, and Miami, Florida, is approximately 29 minutes. To see if their commuting times appear to be any different in the winter, random samples of 40 drivers were surveyed in each city and the average commuting time for the month of January was calculated for both cities. The results are shown. At the 0.05 level of significance, can it be concluded that the commuting times are different in the winter? Miami Baltimore Sample size 40 40 Sample mean 28.5 min 35.2 min Population standard deviation 7.2 min 9.1 min

27-29). There are 800 residents of Siniloan, Laguna tested for Covid 19. 75% of them are negative, 160 has found asymptomatic but tested positive and the rest has found symptomatic have resulted positive for Covid-19. How many residents have tested positive for Covid 19?
Stanford University researchers published an MIT working paper titled “The Economics of Ride Hailing: Driver Revenue, Expenses, and Taxes” (February 2020). One of the objectives of the study was to determine whether ride-share drivers at Uber and Lyft actually make a profit. Data collected from a sample of 1,121 ride-share drivers yielded a mean monthly profit �¯=$661 with standard deviation �=$583. An Uber executive reports that �, the true mean monthly profit of all its ride-share drivers, is $1,000. You want to test the executive’s figure using �=.10. Set up the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Assume that you believe the true mean monthly profit is less than $1,000. Find the rejection region for the test. Compute the test statistic. Use statistical software to find the p-value for the test. What is your conclusion? Show that the conclusion is the same whether you use the rejection region or p-value.
