An article found that Massachusetts residents spent an average of $860.70 on the lottery in 2010, more than three times the U.S. average (www.businessweek.com, March 14, 2012). A researcher at a Boston think tank believes that Massachusetts residents spend less than this amount. He surveys 100 Massachusetts residents and asks them about their annual expenditures on the lottery.

The mean annual tuition and fees in a particular academic year for a sample of 23 private colleges in Oklahoma was $37,553 with a standard deviation of $7,341. Assuming that the population is approximately normal, can we conclude with a significance level of α = 0.05 that the mean tuition and fees for private institutions in Oklahoma is $36,000? a.)

A group of professors investigated first-year college students' knowledge of astronomy. One concept of interest was the Big Bang theory of the creation of the universe. In a sample of 148 freshmen students, 34 believed that the Big Bang theory accurately described the creation of planetary systems. Based on this information, is it correct at the alpha=0.10 level of significance to state that more than 20% of all freshmen college students believe the Big Bang theory describes the creation of...

The average temperature in St. Louis in November of 2018 was 38.8oF38.8oF . The unusually cold weather in St. Louis and other places around the country prompted President Trump to tweet at the time that this was proof that global warming cannot be real. Let’s put that claim to a statistical test: According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA, retrieved from www.weather.gov), the average daily temperature in St. Louis in November (starting in 1838) is 45.05oF use this...

A sociologist is studying the age of the population in Blue Valley. Ten years ago, the population was such that 20% were under 20 years old, 14% were in the 20- to 35-year-old bracket, 32% were between 36 and 50, 24% were between 51 and 65, and 10% were over 65. A study done this year used a random sample of 210 residents. This sample is given below. At the 0.01 level of significance, has the age distribution of the...
