In the past, the mean age of consumers of a product was 38 years. Recently the product has been drastically changed. In order to determine whether there has been a change in the mean age of the product consumers, a sample of 16 consumers is selected. The mean age in the sample is 33 years and the standard deviation in the sample is 10 years. Let p = the mean age of the current product consumers. At a 1% significance level one can conclude that O a. The mean age of the product consumers is unchanged O b. The mean age of the product consumers has increased OC. The mean age of the product consumers has changed Od. Cannot tell from the information provided

To compare the dry braking distances from 30 to 0 miles per hour for two makes of automobiles, a safety engineer conducts braking tests for 35 models of Make A and 35 models of Make B. The mean braking distance for Make A is 42 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.7 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 45 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.4 feet. At a = 0.10, can the engineer support the claim that the mean braking distances are different for the two makes of automobiles? Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. Complete parts (a) rari rz (b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s). The critical value(s) is/are (Round to three decimal places as needed. Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)
Assume that you have been provided the following information for a sample of cars The covariance between weight and miles per gallon is equal to -4.9 pound-miles. The standard deviation of the cars' mileages is 7.75. The standard deviation of the cars' weights is 0.94. Estimate the correlation coefficient to the first decimal place.
Suppose the distribution of typing speeds in words per minute for experienced typists can be approximated by a normal curve with a mean of 60 wpm and a standard deviation of 15 wpm. To be considered for a position an applicant needs to have a typing speed of at least 70 wpm. If 62 experienced typists apply for the job, how many of these would be considered based on their typing speed?
Women are recommended to consume 1730 calories per day. You suspect that the average calorie intake is different for women at your college. The data for the 16 women who participated in the study is shown below: 1764, 1612, 1772, 1405, 1685, 1634, 1823, 1770, 1691, 1762, 1485, 1883, 1834, 1578, 1733, 1885 Assuming that the distribution is normal, what can be concluded at the a = 0.10 level of significance? a. For this study, we should use E-test for a population mean b. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: ?v|| Select an answer v H.: ?vSelect an answer v c. The test statistic ? (please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) d. The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) e. The p-value is f. Based on this, we should fail to reject 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 different from 1730 at a = 0.10, so there is not enough evidence to conclude that the…
Given that age of ECU students is normally distributed. A random sample of 16 students had an average age of 25 years and a variance of 4 square years. The 98% CI for the true average age of all ECU students is?
Now suppose that the true mean exposure time is different from 8h/day, yet the sample mean falls in the acceptance region. In this case we would fail to reject H0 when it is false. This type of wrong conclusion is called a A. type II error B. type I error C. no error D. statistically significant
The board of examiners that administers the real estate broker’s examination in a certain state found that the mean score on the test was 450 and the standard deviation was 50. If the board wants to set the passing scores so that only the top 5% of all applicants pass, what should the passing score be? Assume that the scores are normally distributed.

A parenting magazine reports that the average amount of wireless data used by teenagers each month is 10 Gb. For her science fair project, Ella sets out to prove the magazine wrong. She claims that the mean among teenagers in her area is less than reported. Ella collects information from a simple random sample of 16 teenagers at her high school, and calculates a mean of 9.1 Gb per month with a standard deviation of 1.3 Gb per month. Assume that the population distribution is approximately normal. Test Ella's claim at the 0.05 level of significance. Step 3 of 3: Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.
A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 50 men and 74 women to participate in the study. Each subject was required to step up and down a 6-inch platform. The pulse of each subject was then recorded. The following results were obtained.
