t the null hypothesis (a-4) Is the true mean mpg lower for the Ford Fusion? multiple choice 3 Yes No
The average mpg usage for a 2017 Toyota Prius for a sample of 7 tanks of gas was 43.5 with a standard deviation of 1.8. For a 2017 Ford Fusion, the average mpg usage for a sample of 7 tanks of gas was 39.9 with a standard deviation of 2.0.
Assuming equal variances, at α = .05, is the true mean mpg lower for the Ford Fusion?
(a-1) Choose the appropriate hypotheses.
- H0: μtoy – μford ≤ 0 vs. H1: μtoy – μford > 0. Reject H0 if tcalc > 1.782
- H0: μtoy – μford ≤ 0 vs. H1: μtoy – μford > 0. Reject H0 if tcalc < 1.782
- H0: μtoy – μford ≥ 0 vs. H1: μtoy – μford < 0. Reject H0 if tcalc < – 1.782
- H0: μtoy – μford ≥ 0 vs. H1: μtoy – μford < 0. Reject H0 if tcalc > – 1.782
