Suppose that we have a problem for which the null and alternative hypothesis are given by: H0: μ = 890. H1:μ ≠ 890. Is this a right-tailed test, left-tailed test, or two-tailed test. Find the z value based on a level of significance of α=.09.

Jamie, a recruiter, claims that her recruits' entrance exam score is less than 168 points, on average. Several of her coworkers do not believe her, so she decides to do a hypothesis test, at a 1% significance level, to persuade them. She records the scores from 17 recruits. The mean score of the sample recruits is 155 points. Jamie knows from experience that the standard deviation for her recruits' entrance exam score is 19 points. H0: μ≥168; Ha: μ<168 α=0.01 (significance level) What is the test statistic (z-score) of this one-mean hypothesis test?

Original Claim: Fewer than 90% of adults have a cell phone. This is a claim about a population proportion so a normal distribution is assumed. The claim undergoes a hypothesis test using a significance level of α = 0.05. The P-value based on sample data is calculated to be 0.0003. State the null hypothesis (H0). State the alternative hypothesis (H1). What kind of test would this be, a two-tailed, a left-tailed, or a right-tailed? Sketch a normal distribution curve and highlight the region of significance (also called critical region or rejection region). On your graph, next highlight the P-value. (The P-value means that there is a 0.03% chance that your results could be random or happen by chance). State a conclusion about the null hypothesis. (Reject H0 or fail to reject H0.) Without using technical terms or symbols, state a final conclusion that addresses the original claim, i.e., fewer than 90% of adults have a cell phone.Now we will test this hypothesis using the critical value…
