- Two brands of batteries are tested, and their voltages are compared. The summary statistics follow. For sample 1, the sample size is 27; the population standard deviation is 0.3 volts and the mean is 9.2 volts. For sample 2, the sample size is 30; the population standard deviation is 0.1 volts and the mean is 8.8 volts. Is the mean of sample 1 smaller than the mean of sample 2? Using a significance level of 0.05. a) Identify the claim and state the hypotheses. b) What is the test statistics? Find the critical values (s). c) Make the decision to reject or not reject the null hypothesis and explain why. d) Graph your decision and include all the values. That is, the mean, the standard deviation, the critical value(s), the rejection region. e) Set up the formula with the correct numbers for the 95% confidence interval of the mean number of jobs.The coach of a very popular men’s basketball team claims that the average distance the fans travel to the campus to watch a game is 35 miles. The team members feel otherwise. A sample of 16 fans who travel to games was randomly selected and yielded a mean of M= 36 miles and s= 5 miles. Test the coach’s claim at the 5% (.05) level of significance. one-tailed or two-tailed test: State the hypotheses: df= tα or t value for the critical region = sM = t (test statistic)= Decision:A sociologist believed that the average family size in Saskatchewan was larger than the average family size in British Columbia. Random samples from the two provinces yielded the following results: s? Saskatchewan (Pop 1) British Columbia (Pop 2) 3.45 1.34 60 2.89 1.32 52 Test at a = 0.05 whether there is sufficient evidence to support the claim. As well, calculate the p-value for this test.
- A study is conducted to compare the performance of students with more than one personal electronic gadget and those with only one. A number of them were taken as subjects for the study. The mean grades of these students and the standard deviations are shown below: For one gadget: The mean is 83, standard deviation is 12, and sample size is 7. For more than one gadget: The mean is 79, standard deviation is 13, and sample size is 5. Is it possible to conclude that there is no significant difference in the mean grades of the two types of students at a 95% confidence interval? Note: This is a two-tailed test. Also take note that this is finding the difference between two population means.bcd.A study was conducted for an aviation safety agency in which they surveyed thousands of passengers at airports across Europe. In this study, the "mass" for a passenger includes the weight of the passenger and all of the passenger's carry-on items, including infants without their own seats. For the 5,904 adult male passengers measured in summer, the sample mean and standard deviation for this mass were 88.8 kg and 15.9 kg, respectively. (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval (in kilograms) for the population mean mass for adult male passengers in summer. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) ___to__ kg (b) Write a sentence or two interpreting the confidence interval you found in part (a). With 95% confidence, we can estimate that the population mean mass of male passengers traveling in the summer is contained within the interval. We can estimate that 95% of the male passengers traveling in the summer in the sample have a mass that is contained within the interval.…
- MC Qu. 10-64 Sales at a fast-food restaurant average... Sales at a fast-food restaurant average $6,000 per day. The restaurant decided to introduce an advertising campaign to Increase daily sales. In order to determine the effectiveness of the advertising campaign, a sample of 49 day's sales were taken. The sample showed average daily sales of $6,300. From past history, the restaurant knew that its population standard deviation is about $1,000. If the level of significance is 0.01, have sales increased as a result of the advertising campaign? Multiple Choice Fail to reject the null hypothesis. Reject the null hypothesis and conclude the mean is higher than $6,000 per day. Reject the null hypothesis and conclude the mean is lower than $6,000 per day. Reject the null hypothesis and conclude that mean equal to $6,000 per day.Do political science classes require less writing than history classes? The 47 randomly selected political science classes assigned an average of 19 pages of essay writing for the course. The standard deviation for these 47 classes was 5.6 pages. The 56 randomly selected history classes assigned an average of 21.9 pages of essay writing for the course. The standard deviation for these 56 classes was 4.1 pages. What can be concluded at the a = 0.10 level of significance? For this study, we should use Select an answer a.

For this study, we should use Select an answer b. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Họ: ?v Select an answer v H: ? vSelect an answer c. The test statistic (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) d. The p-value = e. The p-value is ? f. Based on this, we should Select an answer g. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... O The data suggest that the population mean calorie intake for women at your college is not significantly more than 1870 at a = 0.01, so there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean calorie intake for women at your college is more than 1870.
