A random sample of 22 chemists from Washington state shows an average salary of $46761 with a standard deviation of $891. A random sample of 17 chemists from Florida state shows an average salary of $49312 with a standard deviation of $616. A chemist that has worked in both states believes that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida. At αα=0.05 is this chemist correct? Let Washington be sample 1 and Florida be sample 2. The correct hypotheses are: H0:μ1≤μ2H0:μ1≤μ2 HA:μ1>μ2HA:μ1>μ2(claim) H0:μ1≥μ2H0:μ1≥μ2 HA:μ1<μ2HA:μ1<μ2(claim) H0:μ1=μ2H0:μ1=μ2 HA:μ1≠μ2HA:μ1≠μ2(claim) Since the level of significance is 0.05 the critical value is 1.688 The test statistic is: (round to 3 places) The p-value is: (round to 3 places) The decision can be made to: reject H0H0 do not reject H0H0 The final conclusion is that: There is enough evidence to reject the claim that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida. There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida. There is enough evidence to support the claim that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida. There is not enough evidence to support the claim that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida.

The correct hypotheses are:
- H0:μ1≤μ2H0:μ1≤μ2
HA:μ1>μ2HA:μ1>μ2(claim) - H0:μ1≥μ2H0:μ1≥μ2
HA:μ1<μ2HA:μ1<μ2(claim) - H0:μ1=μ2H0:μ1=μ2
HA:μ1≠μ2HA:μ1≠μ2(claim)
Since the level of significance is 0.05 the critical value is 1.688
The test statistic is: (round to 3 places)
The p-value is: (round to 3 places)
The decision can be made to:
- reject H0H0
- do not reject H0H0
The final conclusion is that:
- There is enough evidence to reject the claim that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida.
- There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida.
- There is enough evidence to support the claim that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida.
- There is not enough evidence to support the claim that chemists in Washington make more than chemists in Florida.
