- Please help answering this questionOur environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 4.6 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 14 samples is 4.9 ppm with a variance of 1.2 Does the data support the claim at the 0.01 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 2 of 5 : Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.Information from the Department of Motor Vehicles indicates that the average age of licensed drivers is µ = 45.7 years with a standard deviation of σ = 12.5 years.

What proportion of licensed drivers are younger than 30 years old?
- The Quality Assurance Department is anxious to improve the nominal value of the resistors to ensure more of them fall within the rated tolerance band. The manufacturing process is adjusted in an attempt to bring about this improvement. Following the adjustment, a further sample of 100 resistors is taken in order to determine if the adjustment has resulted in an improvement to the nominal value of the resistors. Analysing this second sample, it is noted that the mean value is now 21.8kΩ, with a standard deviation of 1kΩ how do i takcle this?Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 5.8 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 26 samples is 5.9 ppm with a standard deviation of 0.6. Does the data support the claim at the 0.01 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal.
