a) -8
b) -2
c) -0.5
2. You are testing Ho: µ = 100 against Ha:µ > 100 based on an SRS of 9 observations from a Normal population.
The t statistic is t=2.10. The P-value for the statistic
a) falls between 0.05 and 0.10
b) falls between 0.01 and 0.05
c) is less than 0.01
3. You have an SRS of four observations from a Normally distributed population. What critical value would you use
to obtain an 80% confidence interval for the mean µ of the population?
a) 1.533
b) 1.638
c) 2.353
4. You are testing Ho: µ = 0 against Ha:H # 0 based on an SRS of four observations from a Normal population.

how many hours per week homework assignment require.
b) You interview a sample of 15 instructors and another sample of 15 students and ask each how many hours per
week homework assignments require.
