a. Test the hypothesis that mean battery life is greater than 90. Use the 1% level of
significance.
b. Determine if the mean battery life is different from 80. Use the 10% level of
significance. Show all steps for the hypothesis test
c. Would your conlcusion in part (b) change at the 5% level of significance? |
d. Confirm test results in part (b) using JASP. Note: All JASP input files and output
tables should be provided

- Question 1 A tech company has acknowledged the importance of having records of all meetings conducted. The meetings are very fast paced and requires equipment that is able to capture the information in the shortest possible time. There are two options, using a typewriter or a word processor. Fifteen administrative assistants are selected and the amount of typing time in hours was recorded. The results are given below: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 typewriter 8.0 6.5 5.0 6.7 7.8 8.5 7.2 5.7 9.2 5.7 6.5 word processor 7.2 5.7 8.3 7.5 9.2 7.2 6.5 7.0 6.9 34 7.0 6.9 8.8 6.7 8.8 9.4 8.6 5.5 7.2 8.4 a. Test the hypothesis that the mean typing time in hours for typewriters is less than 7.0. Use the 1% level of significance. b.
