Question
The diameter of a spindle in a small motor pool is supposed to be 5 millimeters. If the spindle is too large or too small, the motor will not perform properly. The manufacturer measures the diameter in a sample of 225 motors and calculates the sample mean diameter as 4.89 millimeters. We wish to test if the mean diameter is 5 millimeters. Which of the following are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses, letting μ denote the average diameter of all spindles?
The null hypothesis is H0: ["", "", "", ""]
The alternative hypothesis is Ha:

- In the entire population of a certain type of tree, the mean height of the trees is μ = 168.8 ft and the standard deviation is σ = 43.6 ft. You collect a random sample of n=22 trees. The distribution of these sample means is shown below. Each tick mark on the horizontal axis is a distance of one more standard error. Complete the indicated boxes, correct to two decimal places. mean of distribution=168.8 standard error=9.30 Note: The left box is 2 standard errors below the mean. The middle box is the mean. The right box is 2 standard errors above the mean.arrow_forwardYou want to obtain a sample to estimate a population mean.

Random samples of 11 days from Tampa (Group 1) and 16 days from New York City (Group 2) are shown below. Test the claim that the mean number of kilowatt hours in Tampa greater than the mean number of kilowatt hours in New York City. Use a significance level of a = 0.10.
