Currently patrons at the library speak at an average of 61 decibels. Will this average increase after the installation of a new computer plug in station? After the plug in station was built, the librarian randomly recorded 48 people speaking at the library. Their average decibel level was 66.5 and their standard deviation was 20. What can be concluded at the the α= 0.10 level of significance? a. The test statistic = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) b. The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.)
An engineer who is studying the tensile strength of a steel alloy intended for use in golf club shafts knows that tensile strength is approximately normally distributed with o = 60 psi. A random sample of 12 specimens has a mean tensile strength of I = 3450 psi. (a) If the mean strength is 3500 psi, what is the smallest level of significance at which you would be willing to reject the null hypothesis? Use a = 0.01. Round your answer to four decimal places (e.g. 98.7654). The smallest level of significance = i (b) What is the B-error if the true mean is 3470 and a = 0.01? Round your answer to three decimal places (e.g. 98.765). B = i (c) Suppose that you wanted to reject the null hypothesis with probability at least 0.8 if mean strength u = 3470 psi.

Many people believe that the average number of Facebook friends is 145. The population standard deviation is 36.1. A random sample of 45 high school students in a particular county revealed that the average number of Facebook friends was 154. At =α0.10, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean number of friends is greater than 145? State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis. :H0 =μ145 ▼not claim :H1 >μ145 ▼claim This hypotheses test is a ▼one-tailed test. Part 2 of 5 Find the critical value(s).
