Citrus Rental is a popular car rental agency that has a history of having too few cars available, so that its available cars are overdriven. The mean monthly mileage over the years for Citrus cars has been about 1550 miles per month. Recently, though, Citrus purchased thousands of new cars, and the company claims that the average mileage of its cars is now less than in the past. To test this, a random sample of 19 recent mileages of Citrus cars was taken. The mean of these 19 mileages was 1450 miles per month, and the standard deviation was 202 miles per month. Assume that the population of recent monthly mileages of Citrus cars is normally distributed. At the 0.05 level of significance, can it be concluded that the mean recent monthly mileage, µ, of Citrus cars is less than 1550 miles per month? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H and the alternative hypothesis H. H, :0 H :0 (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use. (Choose one) ▼ D=0 OSO (c) Find the value of the test statistic. (Round to three or more decimal places.) OO (d) Find the critical value. (Round to three or more decimal places.) (e) At the 0.05 level of significance, can it be concluded that the mean recent monthly mileage of Citrus cars is less than 1550 miles per month? OYes ONo

2-Proportion Test

In a 2-proportion test, two separate proportions are measured at the same time, and their similarity is evaluated. It is also known as a 2-proportion z-test, and a comparison of two different proportions is done in this method.
