- In the past, a chemical company produced 880 pounds of a certain type of plastic per day. Now, using a newly developed and less expensive process, the mean daily yield of plastic for the first 50 days of production is 871 pounds; the standard deviation is 21 pounds. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate that the mean daily yield for the new process is less than that of the old procedure?

The research (alternative) hypothesis is that the averge weight is less than 200 lbs. Your test will be at the 0.01 significance level. You take a sample of 100 men, and find that the sample average is 210 lbs, and the standard error is 2 lbs. What is the value of your test statistic? (Please answer to two decimal places. ex: 5.43)You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of women over 40 who regularly have mammograms is significantly less than 0.66.

In 1950, the average score on the Child Manifest Anxiety Scale was µ= 15.1. A sample of n = 16 was taken from children today, which produced a mean anxiety score of M= 23.3 with SS= 240. Based on the sample, has there been a significant change in the average level of childhood anxiety since 1950? (Use a 2-tailed test with α= .05) Write a sentence describing the outcome of the hypothesis test as it would appear in a research report.
