- The amount of chlorine in 100 cm3 water taken from a water tank was measured, the average was 2.15 mg was found. The expert claims that the amount of chlorine in the water is greater than that measured. For this reason, 100 households were randomly selected, with an average chlorine content of 2.55mg and a variance of 0.49 mg. According to this data, find the account value z. 13 - O A) 8,15 O B) 5,71 O C) -5,71 O D) -8, 15 O E) 0.54The results of a state mathematics test for random samples of students taught by two different teachers at the same school are shown below. Can you conclude there is a difference in the mean mathematics test scores for the students of the two teachers? Use α = 0.01. In addition, assume the populations are normally distributed and the population variances/standard deviations are not equal.

The level of ozone normally found is 7.6 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is not at a normal level. The mean of 1313 samples is 7.2 ppm with a variance of 0.49 Assume the population is normally distributed. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
- The data from an independent-measures research study produce a sample mean difference of 4 points, and each sample has a variance of 10. If there are n = 20 scores in each sample, then what is the estimated standard error of the difference between means?Records from previous years for a casualty insurance company show that its clients average a combined total of 1.9 auto accidents per day, with a variance of 0.31. The actuaries of the company claim that the current variance, oʻ, of the number of accidents per day is not equal to 0.31. A random sample of 17 recent days had a mean of 2 accidents per day with a variance of 0.62. If we assume that the number of accidents per day is approximately normally distributed, is there sufficient evidence to conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that the actuaries are correct?

- The electric cooperative needs to know the mean household usage of electricity by its non-commercial customers in kWh per day. They would like the estimate to have a maximum error of 0.14 kWh. A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 4.84 kWh and the mean is 19.1 kWh per day. If they are using a 80% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of electricity?

- A researcher decides to measure anxiety in group of bullies and a group of bystanders using a 23-item, 3 point anxiety scale. Assume scores on the anxiety scales are normally distributed and the variance among the group of bullies and bystanders are the same. A group of 30 bullies scores an average of 21.5 with a sample standard deviation of 10 on the anxiety scale. A group of 27 bystanders scored an average of 25.8 with a sample standard deviation of 8 on the anxiety scale. You do not have any presupposed assumptions whether bullies or bystanders will be more anxious so you formulate the null and alternative hypothesis based on that.The average size of a farm in Pekan I is 185 acres. The average size of a farm in Pekan II is 100 acre. Assume that the data were obtained from two samples with standard deviations of 38 acres and 12 acres, and sample size of 8 and 9 respectively. Can it be concluded at α = 0.05 that the average size of the farms in Pekan I and Pekan II are different?
