A researcher reports that the average IQ level of students in Alaminos City National High School (ACNHS) is 110. A sample of 20 students has a mean IQ level of 106 with a standard deviation of 9. At 5% level of significance, test the claim that the IQ level of students in ACNHS is 110.

The U.S. Center for Disease Control reports that the mean life expectancy was 47.6 years for whites born in 1900 and 33.0 years for nonwhites. Suppose that you randomly survey death records for people born in 1900 in a certain county. Of the 124 whites, the mean life span was 45.3 years with a standard deviation of 12.7 years. Of the 82 nonwhites, the mean life span was 34.1 years with a standard deviation of 15.6 years. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 0.05 level of significance to see if the mean life spans in the county were the same for whites and nonwhites. a) The null and alternative hypothesis would be: O Ho: Pw = PN H1: Pw > PN Mil :ºH H1: Hw + HN %3D O Ho: Pw H1: Pw µN Ho: µw H1: µw 0.05 d) Make a decision.

A phormaceubcal testing company wants to test a new cholesterol drug. The mean cholesterol level of the target population is 245 mg and a standard deviation of 35 mg.

An incoming MBA student took placement exams in economics and mathematics. In economics, she scored 82 and in math 87. The overall results on the economics exam had a mean of 71 and a standard deviation of 7, while the mean math score was 69, with a standard deviation of 10. On which exam did she do better compared with the other students? Since she scored standard deviations V the mean in economics and standard deviations V the mean in mathematics, she did better on the exam. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
