1. A consumer group claims that the mean annual consumption of cheddar cheese by a person in
the United States is at most 10.3 pounds. A random sample of 100 people in the United States has
a mean annual cheddar cheese consumption of 9.9 pounds. Assume the population standard
deviation is 2.1 pounds. At a = 0.05, can you reject the claim? (Adapted from U.S. Department of
Agriculture)
State the hypotheses:
Calculate the test statistic:
Calculate the P-value:
Conclusion (reject or fail to reject Ho):
2. The CEO of a manufacturing facility claims that the mean workday of the company's assembly
line employees is less than 8.5 hours. A random sample of 25 of the company's assembly line
employees has a mean workday of 8.2 hours. Assume the population standard deviation is 0.5
hour and the population is normally distributed. At a = 0.01, test the CEO's claim.

A psychology researcher conducted a Chi-Square Test of Independence to examine whether there is a relationship between college students’ year in school (Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior) and their preferred coping strategy for academic stress (Problem-Focused, Emotion-Focused, Avoidance). The test yielded the following result:

Interpret the results of this analysis. In your response, clearly explain:
Whether the result is statistically significant and why.
What this means about the relationship between year in school and coping strategy.
What the researcher should conclude based on these findings.

Three new Mazda, three new Toyota and three new Nissan cars were available for experimentation. During the experiment the cars would operate under same conditions in order to eliminate the effect of external variables on the distance travelled per litre on the assigned brand of petrol. The data is given as below: Brands of Petrol Mazda Toyota Nissan I 10.6 12.0 11.0 II 9.0 15.0 12.0 III 12.0 17.4 13.0 (a) Test at the 5% level of significance whether there are signi cant differences among the brands of fuels and also among the cars.
