Question

A simple random sample of the running time of movies of 70 international movies resulted in a sample mean length of 112 minutes and a sample standard deviation of 7 minutes. Test the
claim that international movies have a mean running time of more than 110 minutes at the 5% level of significance. Assume that the lengths of movies are normally distributed.

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
