(COVID-19 Vaccine Anxiety)A doctor noted the Systolic BloodPressure (SBP) of a sample of 10persons among those who werevisiting his hospital for injectingCOVID-19 Vaccine. He found thatthe sample mean is 115 mm of Hgwith a sample standard deviationof 20 mm of Hg. Later on a nursefound that such two visitors arehiding under beds due to anxietyof COVID-19 Vaccine.DoctorHiding from the nurseIt is well known fact that anxiety doesn't cause long-term high blood pressure. Sometimes anepisode of anxiety can cause dramatic increase in your blood pressure, which was the casehere. The nurse noted that the visitors are stressed and their SBP are increased to 180 and194 mm of Hg.Now she wonders: What is the average SBP of all the 12 visitors?

Managers at an automobile manufacturing plant would like to examine the mean completion time, μ , of an assembly line operation. The past data indicate that the mean completion time is 44 minutes, but the managers have reason to believe that this value has decreased. The managers plan to perform a statistical test. After choosing a random sample of assembly line completion times, the managers compute the sample mean completion time to be 40 minutes. The standard deviation of the population of completion times can be assumed not to have changed from the previously reported value of 3 minutes. Based on this information, answer the questions below. What are the null hypothesis ( H0 ) and the alternative hypothesis ( H1 ) that should be used for the test? H0 : μ is H1 : μ is In the context of this test, what is a Type II error?A Type II error is the hypothesis that μ is when, in fact, μ is .Suppose that the…
Thanks to an initiative to recruit top students, an administrator at a college claims that this year's entering class must have a greater mean IQ score than that of entering classes from previous years. The administrator tests a random sample of 17 of this year's entering students and finds that their mean IQ score is 112, with a standard deviation of 15. The college records indicate that the mean IQ score for entering students from previous years is 111. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at the 0.10 level of significance, that the population mean IQ score, μ, of this year's class is greater than that of previous years? To answer, assume that the IQ scores of this year's entering class are approximately normally distributed. Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1. H0:…
Do students who are members of fraternities or sororities have GPAs different from the student body as a whole? A random sample of 123 "greeks" has been selected from the student body of a large university. The GPA for the student body as a whole is 2.59 and the mean for the sample of "greeks" is 2.47 with a standard deviation of .34. Is the difference statistically significant at the alpha=.05 level? Show the results of your t-test and state whether that means the difference is significance or not.

According to a big biotech firm, its new genetically engineered breed of hen has a population mean productivity of 0.71 eggs per day with a population standard deviation of 0.11 eggs per day. Debra is a bioengineer investigating the firm's claims as to the productivity of this new breed of hen. She studies a random sample of 25 hens and finds that the sample mean productivity is 0.67 eggs per day with a sample standard deviation of 0.18 eggs per day. Fill in the blanks below with the proper notation for the population mean, the population standard deviation, the sample mean, and the sample standard deviation. Population mean: u - = 0.71 eggs per day Population standard deviation: = 0.11 eggs per day Sample mean: e = 0.67 eggs per day Sample standard deviation: x = 0.18 eggs per day

Mr. Castillo is the owner of the Household Hacks. Recently he observed a difference in value of sales between the men and women he employs as sales associates. A sample of 40 days revealed the men sold a mean of 14000 worth of appliances per day with a standard deviation of 2000. For a sample of 50 days, the women sold a mean of 15000 worth of appliances per day with a standard deviation of 2500. At the .05 significance level can Mr. Castillo conclude that the mean amount sold per day is larger for the women?
From a research survey, it was found that a random sample of 22 high school graduates of an exclusive school has a mean NSAT score of 90 with a standard deviation of 16, while a random sample of 24 high school graduates of a public school showed a mean NSAT score of 85 with a standard deviation of 12. Is there a significant difference in the NSAT performance of these two groups of high school graduates? Use 5% level of significance. 1. What is the computed value of t in problem 2.
