Suppose a Math test is given to 120 randomly selected third-grade students in New Jersey. The sample average score, Y, on the test is 58 points, and the sample variance, s. is 11 points. Find the critical values for the null hypothesis that the true population mean is equal to 55 at the level of significance a 7%. Would you reject or not reject the mull hypothesis?

2. You would like to check if the average wage of Danish men and women is the same. In order to do that, you obtain a sample of 100 men and 50 women from Denmark. Explain how you would conduct this test under the following assumption: 1. The two populations have the same variance 2. The two populations different variances
State your conclusion to the hypothesis test. 21. A sociologist was interested in determining if there was a relationship between the age of a young adult (18 to 35 years old) and the type of movie preferred. A random sample of 93 adults revealed the following data. Use a Chi-Square independence test to determine if age and type of movie preferred are independent at the 5% level of significance. 18-23 years old 24-29 years old 30-35 years old Totals Drama 8 15 11 34 Science Fiction 12 10 8 30 Comedy 8. 12 29 Totals 29 33 31 93 Provided the assumptions of the test are satisfied, state your conclusion to the test. Note: the p-value = 0.4594 a) Cannot be determined. b The data suggests that age and type of movie preferred are not independent. The data does not suggest that age and type of movie preferred are independent. c) The data does not suggest that age and type of movie preferred are dependent. d) The data suggests that age and type of movie preferred are dependent. . e)

According to data released by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in 2018, the French spend more time eating their meals than anybody else. Perform a hypothesis test to determine if a difference exists between the average time an American spends eating lunch when compared to a person from France. The given data represents the time, in minutes, that random French and American diners spent at lunch. Assume that the population variances are equal.

In a statistics class, students took their pulses before and after being frightened. The frightening event was having the teacher scream and run from one side of the room to the other. The pulse rates (beats per minute) of the women before and after the scream were obtained separately and are shown in the accompanying table. Treat this as though it were a random sample of female community college students. Test the hypothesis that the mean of college women's pulse rates is higher after a fright, using a significance level of 0.05. E Click the icon to view the table of pulse rates before and after the scream. Step 1: Hypothesize Let Hpefore be the population mean number of beats per minute before the scream, and let uafter be the population mean number of beats per minute after the scream. Determine the hypotheses for this test. Use Hdifference = Hpefore - Hafter Choose the correct answer below. O A. Ho: Hdifference>0 O B. Ho: Hdifference *0 1 Data Table Ha: Hdifference =0 Ha:…
Listed in the accompanying table are heights (in.) of mothers and their first daughters. The data pairs are from a journal kept by Francis Galton. Use the listed paired sample data, and assume that the samples are simple random samples and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that there is no difference in heights between mothers and their first daughters. Mother 64.0 66.0 63.0 62.0 66.5 66.0 65.0 60.0 67.0 63.0 Daughter 67.0 66.5 70.5 66.0 61.0 66.0 65.5 65.0 67.0 65.0 In this example, Hd is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of data, where each individual difference d is defined as the daughter's height minus the mother's height. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test? Ho: Ha = 0 in. H₁ Hd 0 in. (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)

When two births are randomly selected, the sample space for genders is bb, bg, gb, and gg. Assume that those four outcomes are equally likely. Construct a table that describes the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of girls from two births. Does the mean of the sample proportions equal the proportion of girls in two births? Does the result suggest that a sample proportion is an unbiased estimator of a 1 1 population proportion? For the entire population, assume the probability of having a boy is the probability of having a girl is, and this is not affected by how many boys or girls have previously been born. Determine the probabilities of each sample proportion. Sample proportion of girls ▼ ▼ ▼ Probability (Type integers or simplified fractions.)
