Follow-up Question
 
 
A company selling home appliances claims that the accompanying instruction guides are written at a 6th-grade reading level. An English teacher believes that the true figure is higher and with the help of an AP Statistics student runs a hypothesis test. The student randomly picks one page from each of 25 of the company's instruction guides, and the teacher subjects the pages to a standard readability test. The reading levels of the 25 pages are given in the following table:
Reading Grade Level        Number of Pages
5                                           6
6                                           10
7                                            4
8                                            2
9                                           2
10                                        1
 
How did you get standard deviation of 1.388?
How did you get x bar 6.48?
In the given n = 25, but in getting the df your n = 30, why?

---------------------

YOUR ANSWER:

Given:

n = 25

 

arrow_forward
Step 2

x¯ = 6.48

σ = 1.388

t = x¯ - μσ/n = 6.48 - 61.388/25 = 1.729

df = n-1 = 29

=> P = 0.048

Yes, the P-value is between 0.01 and 0.05 indicating evidence for the teacher's belief.
