Question
 
Listed below are time intervals​ (min) between eruptions of a geyser. Assume that the​ "recent" times are within the past few​ years, the​ "past" times are from around 20 years​ ago, and that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations. Do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Does it appear that the mean time interval has​ changed? Is the conclusion affected by whether the significance level is 0.10 or
0.01​?

Let μ1be the recent times and let μ2 be the past times. What are the null and alternative​ hypotheses?
 
 
A. H0​: μ1=μ2
H1​: μ1≠μ2
 
B. H0​: μ1≠μ2
H1​: μ1=μ2
 
C. H0​: μ1<μ2
H1​: μ1=μ2
 
D. H0​: μ1=μ2
H1​: μ1>μ2
Calculate the test statistic.
 
t=
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
Find the​ P-value.
 
​P-value=
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
 
Make a conclusion about the null hypothesis and a final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use a significance level of
0.10.
 
 
 
Fail to reject or Reject
H0 because the​ P-value is
less than or equal to or greater than
the significance level.
There is not or is sufficient evidence that the mean time interval has changed.
Is the conclusion affected by whether the significance level is
0.10 or0.01​?
 
 
A. ​Yes, the conclusion is affected by the significance level because
H0 is rejected when the significance level is 0.10 but is not rejected when the significance level is 0.01.
 
B. ​Yes, the conclusion is affected by the significance level because H0 is rejected when the significance level is 0.01 but is not rejected when the significance level is 0.10.
 
C. No, the conclusion is not affected by the significance level because H0 is not rejected regardless of whether a significance level of 0.10 or 0.01 is used.
 
D. No, the conclusion is not affected by the significance level because H0
is rejected regardless of whether a significance level of 0.10 or 0.01 is used.
