I need help with questions a through g. could we use t alpha instead of z? since we are talking about a sample mean ? please show z & t, is it indistinct to use either or ?
I need help with questions a through g. could we use t alpha instead of z?...
1. Regarding a two-tailed z-test with an alpha of 0.05, we would need a Zobt with an absolute value less than 1.96 in order to reject the null hypothesis. True or False? 2. What happens to the probability of committing a Type I error if the level of significance is changed from α = 0.05 to α = 0.01? A. It increases B. It decreases C. It stays the same D. Cannot determine 3. Given a Zobt of -1.99 ,...
If we know the population standard deviation and we use the t-test instead of the Z-test, a) We will increase the probability of type II error. b) We will increase the probability of type I error. c) We will have the same conclusion d) None of the above The chi-square goodness-of-fit test can be used to test for: a) significance of sample statistics b) difference between population means c) normality d) probability
N = 28 Mean = 143.00 StDev = 21.00 SE Mean = 3.97 95% Upper Bound = 149.76 T = -1.76 P = 0.045 What conclusion could be drawn at the level of significance α = .05? a. Accept the null hypothesis because the P-value is less than the level of significance. b. Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is less than the level of significance. c. Reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is less than the level of...
I need help with questions A-1 and B-1.
Thanks
Consider the following hypotheses: HO: u = 120 HA: U 120 The population is normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 46. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) a-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic with x = 132 and n = 50. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.) %...
3. Suppose we want to test the hypothesis that a given population distribution is exponential with mean 100, that is, F(x) = 1-e-x/100. Ifthe values from a sample of size 10 from this distribution are 112, 145, 66, 124, 155, 81, 94, 116, 72, 140 what conclusion can be drawn? Use 5 percent level of significance. (4pt)
1. Suppose that you are testing the following hypotheses: ?0: ? = 10 and ?1: ? > 10. If the null hypothesis is rejected at the 1% level of significance, what statement can you make about the confidence interval on the mean? a.) The lower bound of a 95% one-sided confidence interval on the mean exceeds 10 b.) 9 ≤ ? ≤ 13 c.) No statement can be made d.) The lower bound of a 95% one-sided confidence interval on...
Given a normally distributed population with known standard deviation of o = 4, and suppose we would like to test Hair = 14 against H.:p> 14 and significance level a = .05 a) If the null hypothesis is true, what is the probability that we would reject it in favor of the alternative hypothesis? b) Taking a random sample of n= 10 from the population and find that the sample mean is a 16.5. Give the observed value z of...
for the type of test statistic, is it z, t, chi square or F.
please help with this entire question
Tee Roaring 105.02 A laboratory claims that the mean sodium level, H. of a healthy adult is 140 mq per liter of blood. To test this claim, a random sample of 9 adult patients is evaluated. The mean sodium level for the sample is 144 mq per liter of blood. It is known that the population standard deviation of adult...
3. Do you see any striking difference between problem 1 and 2? At a certain university, the mean income of parents of the entering class is reported to by $91,600. The president of another university feels that the parents’ income for her entering class is more than $91,600. She surveys 100 randomly selected families and finds the mean income to be $96,321. Given σ = $9555. With α = 0.05, is she correct? State the null and alternative hypotheses which...
Consider the following competing hypotheses and accompanying sample data drawn independently from normally distributed populations. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) H0: μ1 − μ2 ≥ 0HA: μ1 − μ2 < 0 x¯1x¯1= 249x−2x−2= 262s1 = 35s2 = 23n1 = 10n2 = 10a-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic under the assumption that the population variances are equal. (Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round all intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places.) a-2. Find the p-value. multiple choice 1p-value < 0.010.01 ≤ p-value...
