Justin wants to know whether a commonly prescribed drug does improve the attention span of students with attention deficit disorder (ADD). He knows that the mean attention span for students with ADD who are not taking the drug is 2.3 minutes long. His sample of 12 students taking the drug yielded a mean of 4.6 minutes. Justin can find no information regarding σx , so he calculated s2x =1.96. Determine the critical region using a one-tailed test with alpha = .05. Conduct the hypothesis test (Do the math and compare the t-critical and t-obtained values). State your conclusions in terms of H0 (Should you reject the H0 or fail to reject/accept the H0). Based on your analysis, is there a relationship between the drug and attention span?J1

Suppose that we have reason to doubt this claim and decide to do a statistical test of the claim. We choose a random sample of light bulbs manufactured by BIG and find that the mean lifetime for this sample is 3160 hours and that the sample standard deviation of the lifetimes is 600 hours. Based on this information, answer the questions below. What are the null hypothesis (H.) and the alternative hypothesis (H,) that should be used for the test? Ho: u is ? H: u is ? In the context of this test, what is a Type I error? A Type I error is ? v the hypothesis that u is? when, in fact, u is ? Suppose that we decide to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might we be making? ?The average salary in this city is $47,400. Is the average less for single people? 70 randomly selected single people who were surveyed had an average salary of $45,379 and a standard deviation of $13,700. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.05 level of significance?

The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is αα Based on this, we should the null hypothesis. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... The data suggest that the population mean is not significantly less than 47,400 at αα = 0.05, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the population mean salary for singles is less than 47,400.
