Assume you want to know whether the prices of meatballs change during the christmas holiday season. You therefore go to 14 meat-stores before the holiday to check the prices of one kilo of meatballs.
In the middle of the holidays, you walk around to the same 14 meat-stores and check the prices again. The results of your research is seen in the table in the picture below.
Make a hypothesis test, where you test whether the prices have changed between the two surveys.
Use ? = 0.05

Steve Contois, the firm's vice president, proposes a compensation plan with new selling incentives. Steve hopes that the results of a trial selling period will enable him to conclude that the compensation plan increases the average sales per salesperson. (a) Develop the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses. H0: ? ≥ 7,000 Ha: ? < 7,000 H0: ? = 7,000 Ha: ? ≠ 7,000 H0: ? < 7,000 Ha: ? ≥ 7,000 H0: ? > 7,000 Ha: ? ≤ 7,000 H0: ? ≤ 7,000 Ha: ? > 7,000 (b) What is the type I error in this situation? What are the consequences of making this error? It would be concluding ? ≤ 7,000 when the plan does increase sales.

- Use the traditional method in testing the hypothesis in the problems below. In each problem, state the following:a. State the hypotheses and identify the claim.b. Find the critical value(s)c. Find the test value The manager of the cosmetics section of a large department store wants to determine whether newspaper advertising really does affect sales. For her experiment, she randomly selects 15 items currently in stock and proceeds to establish a baseline. The 15 items are priced at their usual competitive values, and the quantity of each item sold for a 1-week period is recorded. Then, without changing their price, she places a large ad in the newspaper, advertising the 15 items. Again, she records the quantity sold for a 1-week period. The results follow. Item 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15No. of Items Sold Before Ad 25 18 3 42 16 20 23 32 60 40 27 7 13 23 16No. of Items Sold After Ad 32 24 7 40 19 25 23 35 60 43 28 11 12 32 28arrow_forwardLast year, the proportion of tax filers that received a refund was 25%. An accountant believes this upcoming tax year will have a smaller proportion of tax refunds than the proportion from last year. Interested in studying this further, the accountant samples a few of their clients and determines the proportion that receive a refund for this upcoming tax year is 19%. As the accountant sets up a hypothesis test to determine if their belief about this upcoming tax year is correct, what is the accountant's claim?arrow_forwardSpending on concessions at the movies varies by age of the movie goer.

State the hypotheses for determining there is a difference in the proportion of adults who purchase popcorn in each age group. b. Calculate the test statistic. c. Calculate the p-value. d. Interpret the p-value. e. State your conclusion. f. Would a confidence interval for the difference in proportions contain zero? Explain without constructing the interval.arrow_forward
