4. Suppose a newly released weight-loss pill is being sold in a certain city. The manufacturer claims thatany overweight person who takes the pill as directed will lose more than 15 lbs within a month. To testthis claim, a doctor gives this pill to twelve overweight people and finds that they lose an average of 17.2lbs with a standard deviation of 4 lbs. Can we reject the manufacturer’s claim at the 1% level ofsignificance?a. Null and alternative hypothesis (give both in symbolic form and sentence form): b. Test statistic and p-value (show the calculation or show what you entered into the calculator(screenshots are ok here)):c.

Assume that human body temperatures are normally distributed with a mean of 98.23°F and standard deviation of .64°F. The hospital uses 100.6°F as the lowest temperature considered to be a fever. What percentage of normal and healthy person's would be considered to have a fever? Does this percentage suggest that a cut off of 100.6°F is appropriate? Physicians want to select a minimum temperature for requiring further medical test. What should the temperature be if we want only 5% of healthy people to exceed it?

Show all steps/ calculator commans using a TI84 graphing calculator. Conduct a hypothesis test showing all of your steps. An insurance agent says the standard deviation of the total bill for hospital patients who were involved in serious vehicles accidents was less than $17,800. A random sample of 29 bills had a standard deviation of $16,023. Test the claim with a 0.10 level of significance. 1. State the hypotheses and label the claim. Is the test left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed? 2. What is/are the critical value(s)? Draw a picture. 3. What is the test-statistic? 4. State the conclusion. Give one reason for your decision to reject/not reject H0 based on: 5.Test statistic compared to critical value Then, relate back to the original claim.
