The U.S. Census Bureau reported that the mean area of U.S. homes built in 2012 was 2505 square feet. A simple random sample of 17 homes built in 2013 had a mean area of 2666 square feet with a standard deviation of 212 feet. Can you conclude that the mean area of homes built in 2013 is greater than the mean area of homes built in 2012? It has been confirmed that home sizes follow a normal distribution. Use a 10% significance level.Round to the fourth H0= HA= Test Statistic= P-value= Did something significant happen? Select the Decision Rule: There ( is or is not) enough evidence to conclude that the mean area of homes built in 2013 were (equal or greater) to the homes built in 2012?

The state of Connecticut claims that the average time on death row is 15 years. A random survey of 75 death row inmates revealed that the average length of time on death row is 17.8 years with a standard deviation of 6.8 years. Conduct a hypothesis to test the state of Connecticut's claim. Use 5% significance level. What type of test should be run? t-test of a mean z-test of a proportion The alternative hypothesis indicates a right-tailed test left-tailed test two-tailed test Calculate the p-value. Round to 4 decimal places. What is the decision? We fail to reject the claim that the average time on death row is 15 years We reject the claim that the average time on death row is 15 years
Nutrition Iron-deficiency anemia is an important nutritional health problem in the United States. A dietary assessment was performed on 53 boys 9 to 11 years of age whose families were below the poverty level. The mean daily iron intake among these boys was found to be 12.60 mg with standard deviation 4.73 mg. Suppose the mean daily iron intake among a large population of 9- to 11-year-old boys from all income strata is 14.48 mg. We want to test whether the mean iron intake among the low-income group is different from that of the general population. You can use the Inferential Statistics page and the Distribution Calculators page SALT to answer parts of this question. (a) State the hypotheses (in mg) that we can use to consider this question. (Enter != for + as needed.) Ho: Hi: (b) Carry out the hypothesis test in part (a) using the critical-value method with an a level of 0.05, and summarize your findings. Find the test statistic.

According to a survey, the average American person watches TV for 3 hours per week. To test if the amount of TV in New York City is more than the national average, a researcher decides to do a hypothesis test, at a 1% significance level. She surveys 23 New Yorkers randomly and asks them about their amount of TV each week, on average. From the data, the sample mean time is 3.8 hours per week, and the sample standard deviation (s) is 1.1 hours. H0: μ≤3; Ha: μ>3. α=0.01 (significance level) What is the test statistic (t-value) of this one-mean hypothesis test (with σ unknown)? Round your final answer to two decimal places. Provide your answer below: $$Test Statistic =
It is commonly believed that the mean body temperature of a healthy adult is 98.6°F. You are not entirely convinced. You believe that it is not 98.6° F. You collected data using 52 healthy people and found that they had a mean body temperature of 98.25° F with a standard deviation of 1.2° F. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean body temperature of a healthy adult is not 98.6°F. a) kdentify the null and alternative hypotheses? Họ:p=v 98.6 H.: p
A pipes manufacturer makes pipes with a length that is supposed to be 12 inches. A quality control technician sampled 35 pipes and found that the sample mean length was 12.05 inches and the sample standard deviation was 0.13 inches. The technician claims that the mean pipe length is not 12 inches. What type of hypothesis test should be performed? Two-tailed t-test Two-tailed z-test Left tailed t-test Left tailed z-test What is the test statistic? What is the number of degrees of freedom? Does sufficient evidence exist at the α=0.01 significance level to support the technician's claim? Yes or No

An article reports that blue eyed people earn less than brown eyed people. Average blue eyed salary, $35,000, average brown eyes $37,000, p-value 0.45. Based on that reported p-value and using the common definition of "statistical significance" which is the case?
Big babies: The National Health Statistics Reports described a study in which a sample of 335 one-year-old baby boys were weighed. Their mean weight was 25.2 pounds with standard deviation 5.3 pounds. A pediatrician claims that the mean weight of one-year-old boys differs from 25 pounds. Do the data provide convincing evidence that the pediatrician's claim is true? Use the o 0.01 level of significance and P-value method with the Critical Values for the Student's t Distribution Table. (a) State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses (b) Compute the value of the test statistic. (c) State a conclusion.
