- If we have a simple random sample of size n from a population with standard deviation σ, what is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean (x̄)?The manufacturer of a new eye cream claims that the cream reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after just 14 days of application. To test the claim, 10 women are randomly selected to participate in a study. The number of fine lines and wrinkles that are visible around each participants eyes is recorded before and after the 14 days of treatment. The following table displays the results. Test the claim at the 0.02 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal. Let women before the treatment be Population 2.

The mean shipping time, μ, spent by customers at the supermarkets has been reported to be 40 minutes, but executives hire a statistical consultant and ask her to determine whether it can be concluded that μ is less than 40 minutes. To perform her statistical test, the consultant collects a random sample of shopping times at the supermarkets. She computes the mean of these times to be 34 minutes and the standard deviation of the times to be 16 minutes. Based on the information, answer the questions below.
- Executives of a supermarket chain are interested in the amount of time that customers spend in the stores during shopping trips. The mean shopping time, u, spent by customers at the supermarkets has been reported to be 35 minutes, but executives hire a statistical consultant and ask her to determine whether it can be concluded that u is greater than 35 minutes. To perform her statistical test, the consultant collects a random sample of shopping times at the supermarkets. She computes the mean of these times to be 42 minutes and the standard deviation of the times to be 10 minutes. Based on this information, answer the questions below.

He randomly selects a sample of 9 students who had 5 or more absences in the school year. The average ACT Composite score for this sample is X = 19 with s = 4.9. ACT Composite scores are normally distributed with u = 21.0. Do the data support the claim that the high number of absences hinders the students' ability to perform on standardized tests, using a = .05? Please show the four-step hypothesis test. %3D

The mean shopping time, μ , spent by customers at the supermarkets has been reported to be 36 minutes, but executives hire a statistical consultant and ask her to determine whether it can be concluded that μ is greater than 36 minutes. The consultant plans to do a statistical test and collects a random sample of 50 shopping times at the supermarkets. Suppose that the population of shopping times at the supermarkets has a standard deviation of 16 minutes and that the consultant performs her hypothesis test using the 0.05 level of significance.
