The human resources department of a major corporation announced that the number of people interviewed by the corporation in one month has a mean of 104 and a standard deviation, o, of 15. The management of the corporation suspects that the standard deviation differs from 15. A random sample of 22 months had a mean of 99 interviews, with a standard deviation of 11. If we assume that the number of people interviewed by the corporation in one month follows...

The records show that the lifetimes of electric bulbs manufactured in the past by BIG Corporation have a mean of 8840 hours and a variance of 15783. The corporation claims that the current variance, c?, is less than 15783 following some adjustments in its production unit. A random sample of 31 bulbs from the current production lot has a mean lifetime of 8842 hours, with a variance of 11977. Assume that the lifetimes of recently manufactured bulbs are approximately normally...

A laboratory claims that the mean sodium level, H, of a healthy adult is 139 mEq 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 141 mEq per liter of blood. It is known that the population standard deviation of adult sodium levels is 15 mEq. Assume that the population is normally distributed. Can we conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that the...

A presidential candidate's alde estimates that, among all college students, the proportion p who intend to vote in the upcoming election is at most 65%. If 188 out of a random sample of 260 college students expressed an intent to vote, can the aide's estimate be rejected at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places and round your answers as specified in...

A psychologist specializing in marriage counseling claims that, among all married couples, the proportion p for whom her communication program can prevent divorce is at least 78%. In a random sample of 245 married couples who completed her program, 173 of them stayed together. Based on this sample, can we reject the psychologist's claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-talled test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places...

The breaking strengths of cables produced by a certain manufacturer have a mean, p, of 1750 pounds, and a standard deviation of 100 pounds. It is claimed that an improvement in the manufacturing process has increased the mean breaking strength. To evaluate this claim, 150 newly manufactured cables are randomly chosen and tested, and their mean breaking strength is found to be 1760 pounds. Can we support, at the 0.05 level of significance, the claim that the mean breaking strength...

A coin-operated drink machine was designed to discharge a mean of 9 ounces of coffee per cup. In a test of the machine, the discharge amounts in 16 randomly chosen cups of coffee from the machine were recorded. The sample mean and sample standard deviation were 8.85 ounces and 0.25 ounces, respectively. If we assume that the discharge amounts are normally distributed, is there enough evidence, at the 0.1 level of significance, to conclude that the true mean discharge, H,...

The cholesterol levels of adult males are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 224 mg/dl, and a variance, o', of 521. Some researchers claim that the variance of cholesterol levels of adult males is less than 521. A sample of 15 adult males' blood tests had a mean of 222.5 mg/dL and a variance of 192. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that the variance of cholesterol levels of adult males is less...

The professor of an introductory statistics course has found something interesting: there may be a relationship between scores on his first midterm and the number of years the test-takers have spent at the university. For the 63 students taking the course, the professor found that the least squares regression equation relating the two variables number of years spent by the student at the university (denoted by x) and score on the first midterm (denoted by y) is 9 - 83.52...

A psychologist specializing in marriage counseling claims that, among all married couples, the proportion p for whom her communication program can prevent divorce is at least 76%. In a random sample of 230 married couples who completed her program, 166 of them stayed together. Based on this sample, can we reject the psychologist's claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places...
