One personality test available on the World Wide Web has a subsection designed to assess the "honesty" of the test-taker. After taking the test and seeing your score for this subsection, you're interested in the mean score, µ, among the general population on this subsection. The website reports that µ is 142, but you believe that u is less than 142. You decide to do a statistical test. You choose a random sample of people and have them take the personality test. You find that their mean score on the subsection is 135 and that the standard deviation of their scores is 28. Based on this information, answer the questions below. What are the null hypothesis (H) and the alternative hypothesis (H,) that should be used for the test? Ho: u is ? ? |H,: µ is ? H : ? In the context of this test, what is a Type II error? A Type II error is ? v the hypothesis that u is ? v when, in fact, μ is| ? ? Suppose that you decide not to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might you be making? ?

The U.S. National Center for Health Statistics complies birth statistics and publishes the results in vital statistics of the United States. The Center has historically believed that the mean of all newborns in the U.S. has been no less than 6.95 pounds. A sample of babies is selected so that the center can revise its belief. The following birth weights, in pounds are recorded: 7.4, 6.0, 8.6, 4.5, 2.0, 7.9, 4.0, 2.6, 5.9, 7.3, 7.3, 7.0, 6.3, 8.1, 7.1, 7.3, 6.6, 5.2, 9.8, 8.0, 10.9, 6.5, 3.8, 5.0, 8.0 a). At 5% level of significance, do these data provide sufficient evidence to refute the Center’s belief? Your conclusion must be in terms of the P-Value as well as setting up a Rejection Region. You must show all necessary work. b). Which statistical distribution should be applied in this situation and why? Explain carefully.
