Q1- Suppose we want to estimate the average weight of an adult male in Dekalb County Georgia. We draw a random sample of 1,001 men from a population of 1,000,000 men and weigh them. We find that the average man in our sample weighs 180 pounds, and the standard deviation of the sample is 30 pounds. What is the 95% confidence interval of mean weight?

The average fees paid by students at state universities across the country were $2236 per student last year. The average for a random sample of 500 students this year is $2350. Given the following hypotheses, Ho: 4 = 2236 (The average fees are the same as last year.) Ha: H = 2236 (The average fees are not the same as last year.) Compute the p-value for the sample result. Assume the population standard deviation is $724. If the significance level is 5%, can the null hypothesis be rejected? A. none of these B. The p-value here is .04. Since .04 is less than the significance level, that is, since .04 < .05, we can reject HO C. The p-value here is .02. Since 02 is less than the significance level, that is, since 02 < 05, we can't reject HO. D. The p-value here is .0004. Since .0004 is less than the significance level, that is, since .0004 < .05, we can reject HO.

I. A study reports that teenagers spend 27 hours a week online (www.telegraph.co.uk). A researcher wanted to check if this claim is true. A random sample of 200 teenagers taken showed that they spend an average of 25.7 hours per week online with a standard deviation of 8.2 hours. Perform a hypothesis test with the alternate hypothesis that teenagers spend less than 27 hours per week online. Use c = 0.05. Perform all of the steps outline in your notes and write a complete conclusion in words. Assume the distribution of hours spent online is normally distributed.
Do men take more time than women to get out of bed in the morning? The 46 men observed averaged 6.5 minutes to get out of bed after the alarm rang. Their standard deviation was 1.1. The 45 women observed averaged 6 minutes and their standard deviation was 2.9 minutes. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.01 level of significance? For this study, we should use The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0:H0: u1 or p1, <,>,=, u2, p2 (please enter a decimal) H1:H1: u1 or p1, <,>,=, u2, p2 (Please enter a decimal) The test statistic z or t is 1.083.
