You wish to test the following claim (Ha) at a significance level of a = 0.01. H.:µ = 73.7 HaiH + 73.7 You believe the population is normally distributed, but you do not know the standard deviation. Your sample has: size: n = 54 mean: M = 65.8 standard deviation: SD = 20.1. What is the test statistic for this sample? (Round the answer accurate to 3 decimal places.) test statistic: t = What is the P-value for this sample? (Round the answer accurate to 3 decimal places.) P-value = The P-value is... less than (or equal to) a greater than a This leads to a decision to... reject the null accept the null fail to reject the null So, the final conclusion is that... The data do not support the claim of the alternative hypothesis that the population mean is not equal to 73.7. The sample data support the claim of the alternative hypothesis that the population mean is not equal to 73.7.

The average income of a large sample of households is $63,000 and the s.d. is $7,000. Assume that the data is approximately bell-shaped. What percent of these households have incomes between $42,000 and $77,000? Don’t forget to properly justify your answer using the empirical rule.
If someone could help me answer this that would be great.
Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 4.6 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 14 samples is 4.9 ppm with a variance of 1.2 Does the data support the claim at the 0.01 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 2 of 5 : Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

The manufacturer claims that your new car gets 23 mpg on the highway. You suspect that the mpg is less for your car. The 50 trips on the highway that you took averaged 19.8 mpg and the standard deviation for these 50 trips was 7.4 mpg. What can be concluded at the � = 0.10 level of significance? For this study, we should use The null and alternative hypotheses would be: �0: �1: The test statistic = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is � Based on this, we should the null hypothesis. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... The data suggest that the populaton mean is significantly less than 23 at � = 0.10, so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the population mean mpg for your car on the highway is less than 23. The data suggest that the population mean is not significantly less than 23 at � = 0.10, so there is…
