It is claimed that, the average monthly maintenance cost for a private car in UK is five hundred Great Britain Pound. To test this claim, a researcher took a sample of 28 people from the private car owners/users and found on average they spent five hundred and thirty Great Britain Pound and the standard deviation of sixty. Does this indicate that the average monthly maintenance cost for a private car in UK is higher than the claimed five hundred? Your conclusion is at what level of significance?

Forty refrigerators from two different models of a refrigerator manufacturer are compared to see if the smaller model uses less energy than the larger model. The energy was measured in kilowatt hours per month (kwh/mo). From years of testing these models, it is known that the standard deviation of kwh/mo is 34 kwh/mo for the smaller model and 40 kwh/mo for the larger one. From this survey, the sample means and standard deviations are 125 and 34, and 90 and 40, respectively. If we conduct a hypothesis test, the decision and conclusion are Group of answer choices Do not reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the average kwh/mo are the same. Reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the average kwh/mo are different. Reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the average kwh/mo for the smaller refrigerator is higher than for the larger model. Do not reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the average kwh/mo for the smaller refrigerator is higher than for…
