At a university, the average cost of books per student has been $600 per student per semester. The Dean of Students believes that the costs are increasing and that the average is now greater than $600. He surveys a sample of 40 students and finds that for the most recent semester their average cost was $645 with a standard deviation of $75. What is the test value for this hypothesis test?
Test value: ? Round your answer to two decimal places as necessary.

A book about different colleges' reports that the mean time students at a particular university study each week is 1015 minutes. A dean says she believes the mean is greater than 1015 minutes. To test her claim, she takes a random sample of 64 students and finds that the sample mean is 1050 minutes, with standard deviation 150 minutes 4. Show that this meets the requirements for a significance test for a mean. State the null hypothesis and the alternate...

Question 2 1 pts The cost of off-campus living for U of O students is normally distributed. The Office of the Registrar estimates that on average it costs students $1,150 per month to live off-campus. A student group suspects that the average cost of living is higher than what is listed by the registrars office. They decide to conduct a hypothesis test. The student group randomly surveys 18 students and finds that they pay an average of $1,275 per month...

QUESTION 3 Dr. Lawson wants to determine if student happiness is greater this semester with his neuroscience final than the prior semester. He decides to give twenty randomly selected students the Student Exam Happiness Rating Scale to students both in the prior semester and current semester (N 40). He also checked to make sure that no students were in both groups. The students in the prior semester had an average score of 75 with a standard deviation of 5. The...

Suppose a university advertises that its average dlass size is 33 or less. A student onganization is concerned that budget cuts have led to increased class sizes and would like to test this claim. A random sample of 43 ciasses was selected, and the average class size was found to be 36.2 students. Assume that the standard deviation for class size at the college is 8 students. Using a 0.05, complete parts a and b below a. Does the student...

A claim is made that the average college student spends 85 minutes per day on social media. Casey believes this claimed value is too low. He surveys a random sample of 115 college students, and they report spending an average of 90 minutes per day on social media, with a sample standard deviation of 19.5 minutes. When Casey computed his test statistic, he did so as follows: 2 -2.7 85-90 19.5 V115 What is wrong with Casey's computations? Instead of...

David Anderson has been working as a lecturer at Michigan State University for the last three years. He teaches two large sections of introductory accounting every semester. While he uses the same lecture notes in both sections, his students in the first section outperform those in the second section. He believes that students in the first section not only tend to get higher scores, they also tend to have lower variability in scores. David decides to carry out a formal...
