Question

The claim is that for 8 AM body temperatures of females, the mean is less than 98.6°F. The sample size is n = 39 and the test statistic is t= -4.624. Use technology to find the P-value. Based on the result, what is the final conclusion? Use a significance level of 0.01. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: H = 98.6 Hi:p < 98.6 (Type integers or decimals. Do not round. Do not include the degree symbol in your answer.) The test statistic is - 4.62. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The P-value is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) If the P-value is less than or equal to the significance level a, reject the null hypothesis Ho. Otherwise, fail to reject Ho. Identify the significance level for this test.

Definition Definition Measure of central tendency that is the average of a given data set. The mean value is evaluated as the quotient of the sum of all observations by the sample size. The mean, in contrast to a median, is affected by extreme values. Very large or very small values can distract the mean from the center of the data. Arithmetic mean: The most common type of mean is the arithmetic mean. It is evaluated using the formula: μ = 1 N ∑ i = 1 N x i Other types of means are the geometric mean, logarithmic mean, and harmonic mean. Geometric mean: The nth root of the product of n observations from a data set is defined as the geometric mean of the set: G = x 1 x 2 ... x n n Logarithmic mean: The difference of the natural logarithms of the two numbers, divided by the difference between the numbers is the logarithmic mean of the two numbers. The logarithmic mean is used particularly in heat transfer and mass transfer. ln x 2 − ln x 1 x 2 − x 1 Harmonic mean: The inverse of the arithmetic mean of the inverses of all the numbers in a data set is the harmonic mean of the data. 1 1 x 1 + 1 x 2 + ...
