Currently patrons at the library speak at an average of 60 decibels. Will this average decline after the installation of a new computer plug in station? After the plug in station was built, the librarian randomly recorded 61 people speaking at the library. Their average decibel level was 57.2 and their standard deviation was 7. What can be concluded at the the a = 0.10 level of significance?
Researchers measured the length of time people spend brushing their teeth. For the 154 subjects in their study, the mean was 72.8 seconds with a standard deviation of 23. 5 seconds. Use this information with a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that the mean teeth brushing time was less than 80 seconds. What is/are the critical value(s)?

An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 100 engines and the mean pressure was 4.9 lbs/square inch. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 0.7. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 4.7 lbs/square inch, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level that the valve performs above the specifications? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.
The average American consumes 86 liters of alcohol per year. Does the average college student consume more alcohol per year? A researcher surveyed 10 randomly selected college students and found that they averaged 92 liters of alcohol consumed per year with a standard deviation of 16 liters. What can be concluded at the the αα = 0.05 level of significance? The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho=?H1=? The test statistic t=? (please show your answer to 4 decimal places.)
An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 200 engines and the mean pressure was 4.4 lbs/square inch. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 0.9. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 4.5 lbs/square inch, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level that the valve performs below the specifications? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.
A random sample of 25 people has a sample mean height of 70 inches and a sample standard deviationof 4 inches. Confirm or reject the hypothesis H0:  = 68 inches (H1:  ≠ 68 inches) using  = 0.05.
A sample of 50 earthquakes was found to have a sample mean of x ¯ = 1.184 and a sample standard deviation of s = 0.5864. Test the claim that the population of earthquakes has a mean magnitude greater than 1.00. Use a 0.01 significance level. Find the test statistic and critical value used for this test. Round to three decimal places.
Is it more expensive to live in California or Florida? Monthly cost of living expenses for California are approximately Normal with mean μC=$10,800��=$10,800 and standard deviation σC=$3,200��=$3,200. Monthly cost of living expenses for Florida are approximately Normal with mean μF=$8,500��=$8,500 and standard deviation σF=$2,700.��=$2,700. Suppose we select independent SRSs of 16 residents of California and 9 residents of Florida and calculate the sample mean monthly cost of living, x¯C�¯� and x¯F�¯�. a. What is the shape of the sampling distribution of x¯C−x¯F?�¯�−�¯�? Why? b. Find the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of x¯C−x¯F�¯�−�¯�. c. Calculate the probability that the average monthly cost of living expense of the 16 randomly selected California residents is less than the average monthly cost of living expense of the 9 randomly selected Florida residents.
An obstetrician read that a newborn baby loses on average 7 ounces in the first two days of his or her life. He feels that in the hospital where he works, the average weight loss of a newborn baby is less than 7 ounces. A random sample of 30 newborn babies has a mean weight loss of 6.4 ounces. The population standard deviation is 1.6 ounces. Is there enough evidence at =α0.01 to support his claim? Assume that the variable is normally distributed. Use the critical value method with tables. hello the question askas to find the critical value compute the test value and select the hypothesis
