A researcher claims that the amounts of acetaminophen in a certain brand of cold tablets have a mean different than the 600mg claimed by the manufacturer. Test this claim at the .01 significance level. The mean acetaminophen content for a random sample of n = 29 tablets is 597.9 mg with a standard deviation of 3.8 mg. What are the hypotheses? What is the test statistic? Is it a z or a t? Find the P-value for this test statistic. How does it compare to the significance level? On the normal curve, indicate the location of the test statistic and the p-value. (label them on the graph) Write a conclusion in statistical terms and relate it to the parameters of this problem.
A researcher wants to select a sample from a population with a mean (µ)= 60 and administer a treatment to individuals in the sample. He thinks the treatment will help improve scores. a. State the hypotheses for a one-tailed test. b. For a one-tailed test, would the critical region be located in the positive or right-hand tail of the distribution, or in the negative or left-hand tail of the distribution?
Women are recommended to consume 1770 calories per day. You suspect that the average calorie intake is different for women at your college. The data for the 11 women who participated in the study is shown below: 1916, 1992, 1708, 1764, 1685, 1667, 1905, 2078, 1922, 1816, 1786 Assuming that the distribution is normal, what can be concluded at the αα = 0.05 level of significance? The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0:H0: ? p μ Select an answer < ≠ = > Correct H1:H1: ? p μ Select an answer ≠ < = > Correct The test statistic ? t z Correct = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.)

Suppose a study reported that the average persin watched 3.37 hours of television per day. a random sample of 15 people gave the number of hours of television watched per day shown below. at the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficent evidence to conclude that the amount of television watched per day last year by the average person is greater than the value reported in the study? what is the test statistic value for this problem? a.0.28 b.-38 c.none of the above d. 0.58 e.-4.295 f..04 g. 1.94 . the proper conclusion for this problem is? a. reject the null hypothesis we have sufficent evidence to prove the average number of hours people watch tv is more than 3.37 hours. b. Do not reject the null hypothesis we have sufficient evidence to prove the average number of hours of TV watched is greater than 3.37 hours c. Reject the null hypothesis and claim the average number of hours people watch TV is less than 3.37 because the P value is near zero d. Do not reject the null…
Two brands of batteries are tested, and their voltages are compared. The summary statistics follow. For sample 1, the sample size is 27; the population standard deviation is 0.3 volts and the mean is 9.2 volts. For sample 2, the sample size is 30; the population standard deviation is 0.1 volts and the mean is 8.8 volts. Is the mean of sample 1 smaller than the mean of sample 2? Using a significance level of 0.05. a) Identify the claim and state the hypotheses. b) What is the test statistics? Find the critical values (s). c) Make the decision to reject or not reject the null hypothesis and explain why. d) Graph your decision and include all the values. That is, the mean, the standard deviation, the critical value(s), the rejection region. e) Set up the formula with the correct numbers for the 95% confidence interval of the mean number of jobs.
15) The Carolina Tobacco Company advertises that its best selling cigarette contain at most 40 mg of nicotine, but Consumer Advocate magazine conducts tests of 10 randomly selected cigarettes and find that x−=43.3 mg and s=3.8mg. Other evidence suggests that the distribution of nicotine content is a normal distribution. With a significance level of ∝ =0.01 in testing the company’s claim that the mean nicotine content is at most 40mg.
A researcher intends to estimate the effect of a drug on the scores of human subjects performing a task of psychomotor coordination. The members of a random sample of 9 subjects were given the drug prior to testing. The mean score in this group was 9.07, and the sample variance was 17.68. An independent random sample of 10 subjects was used as a control group and given a placebo prior to testing. The mean score in this control group was 15.21, and the sample variance was 27.48. Assuming that the population distributions are normal with equal variances, find a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the population mean scores The confidence interval is<, -,O (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Choose the appropriate statistical test. When computing, be sure to round each answer as indicated. A dentist wonders if depression affects ratings of tooth pain. In the general population, using a scale of 1-10 with higher values indicating more pain, the average pain rating for patients with toothaches is 6.8. A sample of 30 patients that show high levels of depression have an average pain rating of 7.1 (variance 0.8). What should the dentist determine? 1. Calculate the estimated standard error. (round to 3 decimals). [st.error] 2. What is thet-obtained? (round to 3 decimals). 3. What is the t-cv? (exact value) 4. What is your conclusion? Only type "Reject" or Retain"

In a study of birth order and intelligence, IQ tests were given to 18- and 19-year-old men to estimate the size of the difference, if any, between the mean IQs of firstborn sons and secondborn sons. The following data for 10 firstborn sons and 10 secondborn sons are consistent with the means and standard deviations reported in the article. It is reasonable to assume that the samples come from populations that are approximately normal. Can you conclude that the mean IQ of firstborn sons is greater than the mean IQ of secondborn sons? Let μ1 denote the mean IQ of firstborn sons and μ2 denote the mean IQ of secondborn sons. Use the α = 0.01 level and the P-value method with the table.
