Moviegoers The average "moviegoer" sees 8.5 movies a year. A moviegoer is defined as a person who sees at least one movie in a theater in a 12-month period.A random sample of 42 moviegoers from a large university revealed that the average number of movies seen per person was 9.6. The population standard deviation is 3.2 movies. At the 0.10 level of significance, can it be concluded that this represents a difference from the national average? (a)State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis. (b)Find the critical value(s). (c)Compute the test value. (d)Make the decision. (e)Summarize the results.
Maple tree diameters in a forest area are normally distributed with a mean of 10 inches anda standard deviation of 3 inches. In a forest of 1000 maple trees, how many would have adiameter greater than 13 inches. Hint: think of the properties of a normal graph.

The Chocolataboom Candy Company manufactures many types of different candies. Their most popular Valentine's Day box of candy follows a Normal Distribution with a mean of 483 grams and a standard deviation of 21.4 grams. You decide to buy a box of candy and weight it. Your box of candy weighs 509. Calculate the z-score for your box of candy. Round to 2 decimal points. (e.g. 12.34)
The distribution of heights in a population of women is approximately normal. Sixteen percent of the women have heights less than 62 inches. About 97.5% of the women have heights less than 71 inches. Use the empirical rule to estimate the mean and standard deviation of the heights in this population. Mean: K inches Standard Deviation: inches
The data table contains waiting times of customers at a bank, where customers enter a single waiting line that feeds three teller windows. Test the claim that the standard deviation of waiting times is less than 1.3 minutes, which is the standard deviation of waiting times at the same bank when separate waiting lines are used at each teller window.

Wheaties cereal is claimed to have an average of 3 grams of dietary fiber per serving. We want to test this hypothesis and to see whether we believe that is true or that the mean amount of fiber is significantly different from 3 grams. A random sample of 25 servings was taken and it yielded a sample mean of 3.4 grams with the sample standard deviation in the amount of fiber, s = .8 grams. %3D Assume that software has determined the p-value to be.02. Carry out the test at the 5% level of significance. Be sure to state your decision rule and your decision for the test. O Fail to Reject the null hypothesis since the p-value is .05 O Fail to Reject the null hypothesis since the p-value is > .05

eBook The U.S. Energy Information Administration (US EIA) reported that the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline is $3.87. The US EIA updates its estimates of average gas prices on a weekly basis. Assume the standard deviation is $.24 for the price of a gallon of regular gasoline and recommend the appropriate sample size for the US EIA to use if they wish to report each of the following margins of error at 95% confidence. Round up to the next whole number. a. The desired margin of error is $.09. The appropriate sample size is b. The desired margin of error is $.06. The appropriate sample size is c. The desired margin of error is $.05. The appropriate sample size is
