Let x be a random variable representing dividend yield of bank stocks. We may assume that x has a normal distribution with ? = 2.5%. A random sample of 10 bank stocks gave the following yields (in percents). 5.7 4.8 6.0 4.9 4.0 3.4 6.5 7.1 5.3 6.1 The sample mean is = 5.38%. Suppose that for the entire stock market, the mean dividend yield is ? = 4.9%. Do these data indicate that the dividend yield of all bank stocks is higher than 4.9%? Use ? = 0.01. (c) Find (or estimate) the P-value. (Enter a number. Round your answer to four decimal places.) ?Sketch the sampling distribution and show the area corresponding to the P-value.

Suppose that for the entire stock market, the mean dividend yield is u = 4.8%. Do these data indicate that the dividend yield of all bank stocks is higher than 4.8%? Use a = 0.01. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. Will you use a left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed test? Ho: H = 4.8%; H1: µ ± 4.8%; two-tailed Ho: H = 4.8%; H1: µ > 4.8%; right-tailed Ho: H = 4.8%; H1: µ 4.8%; H1: µ = 4.8%; right-tailed (b) What sampling distribution will you use? Explain the rationale for your choice of sampling distribution. The Student's t, since n is large with unknown o. The Student's t, since we assume that x has a normal distribution with known o.
