Question 12
Suppose a survey of randomly selected death records for white and nonwhite people born in 1900 from a
certain county is conducted. Of the 112 whites surveyed, the mean life span was 47.5 years with a standard
deviation of 12.6 years. Of 83 nonwhites, the mean life span was 37.3 years with a standard deviation of
14.2 years. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 0.05 level of significance to determine whether there was no
difference in mean life spans in the county for whites and nonwhites in year 1900.
Test the claim:
a. Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
Ho: H?Hnw
