Suppose a test is given to 20 randomly selected college freshmen in Ohio. The sample average score on the test is 12 points and the sample standard deviation is 4 points. Suppose the same test is given to 16 randomly selected college freshmen in Iowa. The sample average score on the test is 8 points and the sample standard deviation is 3 points. We want to test whether there is a significant difference in scores of college freshmen in Ohio versus Iowa. What is the point estimate for the difference in population means, where difference is defined as (Ohio minus Iowa)?

One personality test available on the World Wide Web has a subsection designed to assess the "honesty" of the test-taker. You are interested in the mean score, μ , among the general population on this subsection. The website reports that μ is 145, but you have good reason to believe that μ is less than 145. You decide to do a statistical test. You choose a random sample of people and have them take the personality test. You find that their mean score on the subsection is 139 and that the standard deviation of their scores is 28. Based on this information, complete the parts below. (a) What are the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1that should be used for the test? H0: H1: (b) Suppose that you decide to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might you be making? ▼(Choose one) (c) Suppose the true mean score among the general population on the subsection is 136. Fill in the blanks to describe a Type II error.
