A study claimed that the competence of Engineers is described as moderately competent having an average performance rate of 4.02 (based in the Likert Scale on side). A researcher-engineer would like to test this claim by surveying randomly selected 55 engineers from a company consisting of 110 engineers. The researcher found out that the mean performance of 55 engineers is 3.35 having a standard deviation of 0.3519. Is there enough evidence to support the claim that the competence of engineers is different from 4.02 using 0.01 significant level?

The mean age when smokers first start is 13 years old with a population standard deviation of 1.8 years. A researcher thinks that smoking age has significantly changed since the invention of ENDS—electronic nicotine delivery systems. A survey of smokers of this generation was done to see if the mean age has changed. The sample of 31 smokers found that their mean starting age was 12.4 years old. Do the data support the claim at the 10% significance level? What are the correct hypotheses? H0: yearsH1: years Based on the hypotheses, find the following: Test Statistic z = (Give answer to at least 4 decimal places)p-value = (Give answer to at least 4 decimal places) Based on the above we choose to The correct summary would be: that the claim that the mean age smokers first start is different than 13.

A survey found that women's heights are normally distributed with mean 63.3 in. and standard deviation 2.9 in. The survey also found that men's heights are normally distributed with mean 69.7 in. and standard deviation 3.6 in. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of a minimum of 55 in. and a maximum of 64 in. What's the percentage of men meeting the height requirement. What does the result suggest about the genders of the people who are employed as characters at the amusement park?
Bone mineral density (BMD) is a measure of bone strength. Studies show that BMD declines after age 45. The impact of exercise may increase BMD. A random sample of 59 women between the ages of 41 and 45 with no major health problems were studied. The women were classified into one of two groups based upon their level of exercise activity: walking women and sedentary women. The 39 women who walked regularly had a mean BMD of 5.96 with a standard deviation of 1.22. The 20 women who are sedentary had a mean BMD of 4.41 with a standard deviation of 1.02. Which of the following inference procedures could be used to estimate the difference in the mean BMD for these two types of women
According to a recent study published by the American Statistics for Educators Journal, statistics students spend, on average, 80 minutes a week playing video games. A certain instructor of statistics at WCC believes that WCC students spend less than this amount of time playing video games per week. To test his belief, he randomly samples 31 students and finds the sample mean to be 72 minutes with a standard deviation of 35 minutes. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence to suggest that WCC students spend less than 80 minutes a week, on average, playing video games? Use the p-value approach. Define the parameter we are testing and setup a hypothesis to test the see if the statistics instructor is correct: Calculate the test statistics for this hypothesis test. What is the p-value for this hypothesis test?

The Fair Isaac Cooperation (FICO) credit score is used by banks and other lenders to determine whether someone is a good credit risk. Scores range from 330 to 850, with a score of 720 or more indicating that a person is a very good credit risk. An economist wants to determine whether the mean FICO score is lower than the cutoff of 720. She finds that a random sample of 60 people had a mean FICO score of 685 with a standard deviation of 80. Can the economist conclude that the mean FICO score is less than 720? Use the a=0.10 level of significance and the P-value method
