EXERCISE 1. A random sample of six steel beams has mean compressive strength of 58.392 psi (pounds per square inch) with a standard deviation of s 648 psi. Test the null hypothesis H, -H = 58,000 psi against the alternative hypothesis H; H> 58,000 psi at 5% level of significance (value for t at 5 degree of freedom and 5% significance level is 2.0157). Here u denotes the population mean. (AMLE, Summer 2000)

A population has parameters u = 220.5 and o = 98.6. You intend to draw a random sample of size n = 106. What is the mean of the distribution of sample means? What is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means? (Report answer accurate to 2 decimal places.) = 20
5.58 The concentration of mercury in a lake has been monitored for a number of years. Measurements taken on a weekly basis yielded an average of 1.20 mg/m (milligrams per cubic meter) with a standard deviation of .32 mg/m. Following an accident at a smelter on the shore of the lake, 15 measurements produced the following mercury concentrations. 1.60 1.77 1.61 1.08 1.07 1.79 1.34 1.07 1.45 1.59 1.43 2.07 1.16 0.85 2.11 ES ABOUT POPULATION CENTRAL VALUES a. Give a point estimate of the mean mercury concentration after the accident. b. Construct a 95% confidence interval on the mean mereury concentration after the accident. Interpret this interval. c. Is there sufficient evidence that the mean mercury concentration has increased since the accident? Use a = .05. d. Assuming that the standard deviation of the mercury concentration is .32 mg/m. calculate the power of the test to detect mercury concentrations of 1.28, 1.32. 1.36, and 1.40.
TF.17 The average number of UHD TVs sold daily at a Best Buy store is known to be 28 and approximately normally distributed. A random sample of 21 days shows sample mean x̄ = 31 with standard deviation s = 7.7. Test the hypothesis Ho : μ = 28 against Ha : μ ≠ 28 at α = 0.10 and at α = 0.05 levels of significance. Use t-distribution.

J A survey found that women's heights are normally distributed with mean 63.3 in. and standard deviation 2.7 in. The survey also found that men's heights are normally distributed with mean 67.5 in. and standard deviation 3.4 in. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of a minimum of 57 in. and a maximum o 64 in. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. ... a. Find the percentage of men meeting the height requirement. What does the result suggest about the genders of the people who are employed as characters at the amusement park? The percentage of men who meet the height requirement is 3.8%. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) an example
