In a random sample of 8 cell phones, the mean full retail price was $549.30 and the standard deviation was $182.00. Further research suggests that the population mean is $425.14.

A lumber company is making boards that are 2900 millimeters tall. If the boards are too long they must be trimmed, and if they are too short they cannot be used. A sample of 35 boards is taken, and it is found that they have a mean of 2900.3 millimeters. Assume a population standard deviation of 8. Is there evidence at the 0.01 level that the boards are either too long or too short? Step 2 of 3 : Find the P-value for the hypothesis test. Round your answer to four decimal places.
Records indicate that the mean weight of mature rainbow trout in Eagle Creek is 2.25 kg with a standard deviation of 0.53 kg. After years of marked oxygen depletion from pollutants in the creek, you want to perform a hypothesis test to see if the standard deviation, σ, of weights has changed. To do so, you measure the weights of 16 randomly chosen mature rainbow trout from the creek and find that the sample standard deviation is 0.34 kg. Under the assumption that current weights of mature rainbow trout in the creek follow a normal distribution, you will perform a chi-square test.Find χ2, the value of the test statistic for your chi-square test. Round your answer to three or more decimal places.=χ2
Assume all populations are normally distributed. A travel analyst claims that the mean price of a round trip flight from New York City to Los Angeles is less than $507. In a random sample of 55 round trip flights from NYC to LA, the mean price is $502. Assume the population standard deviation is $111. At α = 0.05, is there enough evidence to support the travel analyst’s claim?

Assume that the population standard deviation of customer ratings is 22.8. Is there enough evidence to support the claim that the mean customer rating is different from 65?
