Insurance Company A claims that its customers pay less for car insurance, on average, than customers of its competitor, Company B. You wonder if this is true, so you decide to compare the average monthly costs of similar insurance policies from the two companies. For a random sample of 7 people who buy insurance from Company A, the mean cost is $150 per month with a standard deviation of $16. For 12 randomly selected customers of Company B, you find that they pay a mean of $160 per month with a standard deviation of $14. Assume that both populations are approximately normal and that the population variances are equal to test Company A's claim at the 0.10 level of significance. Let customers of Company A be Population 1 and let customers of Company B be Population 2. Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.
A union of restaurant and foodservice workers would like to estimate this year's mean hourly wage, u, of foodservice workers in the U.S. Last year's mean hourly wage was $8.25, and there is reason to believe that this year's value is less than last year's. The union decides to do a statistical test to see if the value has indeed decreased. The union chooses a random sample of this year's wages, computes the mean of the sample to be $7.98, and computes the standard deviation of the sample to be $1.25. 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: u is ? v|? ? In the context of this test, what is a Type I error? v the hypothesis that u is ? A Type I error is ? fact, u is ? v when, in Suppose that the union decides not to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might it be making? ?
