A gaming company claimed that their role-playing games take over 65 hours to complete. A sample of 300 gamers played their role-playing games and were able to complete them with a mean time of 63, hours with a standard deviation of 10 hours. Using a 1% level of significance, test the gaming company's hypothesis.

Suppose that you randomly survey death records for people born in 1900 in Louisiana and compared the life span of two different ethnicities. Of the 109 individuals sampled from ethnicity 1, the mean life span was 45.5 years with a standard deviation of 18.2 years. Of the 105 individuals sampled from ethnicity 2, the mean life span was 44.9 years with a standard deviation of 11.4 years. Conduct a hypothesis test with a 10% level of significance to see if the mean life spans in Louisiana were the same for the two ethnicities. Step 1: State the null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: µ1 – µ2 =v Ha:H1 – µ2 # v (So we will be performing a two-tailed ♥ test.)
A large number of bags of cement have been manufactured. You sample 10 of the bags and find that they have a mean weight of 91.5 pounds with a standard deviation of 8.8 pounds. Find the 90 % confidence limit for the mean of the weight of all of the cement bags.
Five students took a self-confidence test. Their deviation scores were –4, +3, +1, –2, and +2. Assuming that these scores com form a normaldistribution, which deviation represents the highest raw score?
Linda, a researcher in a technology company, obtained a sample of 270 smartphone owners from California. She wanted to investigate whether Californians were quicker or slower to buy the latest version of a smartphone than the people in the rest of the United States. Linda found the average number of days that Californians waited to buy the latest version of a popular smartphone to be 4. Smartphone owners in the rest of the country typically wait 6 days, with a standard deviation of 21.
According to the GSS 2018 dataset, 51% of 218 college graduates reported being interested in environmental issues compared with 43% of 167 high school graduates. What is the research hypothesis? Should you conduct a one- or two-tailed test? Why?
A new drug is being tested to see if it reduces the frequency of migraines. Study participants were divided into two groups. 49 participants in group 1 received the medication; 42 participants in group 2 received a placebo. After a period of six months, group 1 had a mean of 4 migraines. It is known that the population standard deviation for this group is 1.3 migraines. Group 2 had a mean of 5.4 migraines. The population standard deviation for this group is 1.7 migraines. Can we conclude that the medication reduces the population mean number of migraines? Use αα =0.01. Note: If t-test, then unequal variances are assumed. Question a)Let: μ1μ1 = the population mean number of migraines with the medication μ2μ2 = the population mean number of migraines with the placebo (Step 1) State the null and alternative hypotheses by selecting the appropriate symbol, and identify which tailed test: H0:H0: μ1μ1 μ2μ2 H1:H1: μ1μ1 μ2μ2 Which tailed test…
Many people consider their smart phone to be essential! Communication, news, Internet, entertainment, photos, and just keeping current are all conveniently possible with a smart phone. However, the battery better be charged or the phone is useless. Battery life of course depends on the frequency, duration, and type of use. One study involving heavy use of the phones showed the mean of the battery life to be 11.25 hours with a standard deviation of 3.3 hours. Then the battery needs to be recharged. Assume the battery life between charges is normally distributed. (a) Find the probability that with heavy use, the battery life exceeds 12 hours. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)(b) You are planning your recharging schedule so that the probability your phone will die is no more than 5%. After how many hours should you plan to recharge your phone? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of an hour.) hours
Logan and Brian began arguing about who did better on their tests, but they couldn't decide who did better given that they took different tests. Logan took a test in Art History and earned a 76.8, and Brian took a test in English and earned a 68.9. Use the fact that all the students' test grades in the Art History class had a mean of 71.9 and a standard deviation of 11.6, and all the students' test grades in English had a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 9.4 to answer the following questions.a) Calculate the z-score for Logan's test grade.z=z= [Round your answer to two decimal places.] b) Calculate the z-score for Brian's test grade.z=z= [Round your answer to two decimal places.]c) Which person did relatively better? Logan Brian They did equally well.
A machine used to fill gallon-sized paint cans is regulated so that the amount of paint dispensed has a mean of 128 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.40 ounce. You randomly select 45 cans and carefully measure the contents. The sample mean of the cans is 127.9 ounces. Does the machine need to be reset? Explain your reasoning. it is that you would have randomly sampled 45 cans with a mean equal to 127.9 ounces, because it within the range of a usual event, namely within of the mean of the sample means.
