- An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 5.5 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 24 engines and the mean pressure was 5.7 pounds/square inch with a variance of 0.49. A level of significance of 0.01 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.arrow_forwardUsing traditional methods, it takes 8.7 hours to receive a basic driving license. A new license training method using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique with 12 students and observed that they had a mean of 8.4 hours with a variance of 2.56. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used to determine if the technique performs differently than the traditional method. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.arrow_forwardUsing traditional methods it takes 91 hours to receive an advanced flying license. A new training technique using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique on 110 students and observed that they had a mean of 92 hours. Assume the population variance is known to be 36. Is there evidence at the 0.02 level that the technique lengthens the training time? State the null and alternative hypotheses.arrow_forward
- A clinical psychologist wants to compare the efficacy of medication versus Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. He specifically believes that medication will reduce the frequency of suicidal ideation more than Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. He finds that the medicated group (n = 22) reports an average of 1.84 suicidal thoughts, with a sample variance = 9.01. The CBT group (n = 22) reports an average of 3.92 with a sample variance of 9.13. What would be the test statisitc the clinican observes given this data? (Be sure to round your answer to the second decimal place).

Using a survey, they gathered data from two independent samples. The data below summarizes the average customer satisfaction score (out of 10) towards the quality of services of their mobile providers. The satisfaction score is assumed to be normally distributed with unknown and UNEQUAL population variances. Statistics Smart Communications Globe Telecom Mean 4.20 3.15 Standard Deviation 1.25 2.25 Sample Size 25 20 a) Is there a difference in the average satisfaction scores of subscribers from Smart Communications and Globe Telecom? Make the comparisons at the 10% and 5% levels of significance. b) On average, are subscribers from Smart Communications more satisfied with their service provider than from the subscribers from Globe Telecom? Use the 5% and 1% levels of significance.arrow_forwardIn a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 81 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.2 and a standard deviation of 17.2. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected.

- Using traditional methods it takes 8.8 hours to receive a basic driving license. A new license training method using Computer-Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique on 17 students and observed that they had a mean of 8.4 hours with a variance of 2.89. Is there evidence at the 0.1 level that the technique performs differently than the traditional method? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 2 of 5 : Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.arrow_forwardIn a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 64 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.6 and a standard deviation of 1.92. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

One manager claims that the variability (i.e., standard deviation) in arrivals from the posted schedule at the central bus depot is approximately 3 minutes. Another manager disagrees, suspecting that the spread in times of arrival is different. Using variance, what is the population parameter under consideration? What hypotheses should the managers test in this situation?arrow_forward
- Using traditional methods, it takes 11.7 hours to receive a basic driving license. A new license training method using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique with 23 students and observed that they had a mean of 11.3 hours with a standard deviation of 1.4 A level of significance of 0.1 will be used to determine if the technique performs differently than the traditional method. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. Is it reject null hypothesis or fail to reject null hypothesisarrow_forwardIn a study performed on comfort food eating during times of stress, it was found that mean rated comfort food consumption level (on a scale from 1-20) for a group of students undertaking their exam period was 14. In comparison, a group of students who were not undertaking exams or examination preparation had a mean rated comfort food consumption level of 10. The pooled estimate of the population variance was 64.
