a) This is a two tailed test with known population variance and large sample size. Hence,
Critical values for 0.06 level of significance = -1.88, 1.88
b) This is a two tailed test. Hence,
p - Value = 2*P(z < -1.6) = 2*0.0548 = 0.1096
SInce this p - value is greater than 0.06, we do not reject Ho

4) A researcher is testing a hypothesis of a single mean. The critical z value for α = .05 and a two tailed test is ±1.96. The observed z value from sample data is minus2.11. The decision made by the researcher based on this information is to _____ the null hypothesis. reject fail to reject redefine change the alternate hypothesis into restate 5) A researcher is testing a hypothesis of a single mean. The critical z value for α =...
In a random sample of 1276 U.S. adults, 903 favor using mandatory testing to assess how well schools are educating students. In another random sample of 1112 U.S. adults taken 9 years ago, 799 favored using mandatory testing to assess how well schools are educating students. At α = 0.05, can you support the claim that the proportion of U.S. adults who favor mandatory testing to assess how well schools are educating students is less than it was 9 years...
Assume that you have a sample of n 1-7, with the sample mean X1-43, and a sample standard deviation of S1-4, and you have an independent sample of n2-13 from another population with a sample mean of x2 39 and the sample standard deviation S2-7.

1) Select the answer with the correct choices for scenarios A and B regarding the null hypothesis (H0). Scenario A - If we have chosen an alpha (α) of .05 for a two tailed test and our Z obtained is 1.70, what decision do we make regarding the null hypothesis (H0)? Scenario B - If we have chosen an alpha (α) of .01 for a left tailed test and our Z obtained is -2.24, what decision do we make regarding...
Consider the following null and alternative hypotheses: Ho: p=0.76 versusH1: p≠ 0.76 A random sample of 525 observations taken from this population produced a sample proportion of 0.80. a. If this test is made at a 5% significance level, would you reject the null hypothesis? Use the critical-value approach. Round your answer for z to two decimal places. z(observed)= z critical left= z critical right= We reject/fail to reject null hypothesis b. What is the probability of making a Type...
A random sample of n=25 is obtained from a population with variance σ^2, and the sample mean is computed. Test the null hypothesis H0 : μ = 110 versus the alternative hypothesis H1: μ>110 with α=0.01. Compute the critical value (Xc overbar) and state your decision rule for the options below. a. The population variance is σ^2=256. b. The population variance is σ^2=400. c. The population variance is σ^2=900. d. The population variance is σ^2=500.
In order to test HO: µ0 = 40 versus H1: µ ≠ 40, a random sample of size n = 25 is obtained from a normal population with a known σ = 6. My x-BAR mean is 42.3 from my sample. Using a TI 83/84 calculator, calculate my P-value with the appropriate Hypothesis Test. Use a critical level α = 0.01 and decide to Accept or Reject HO with the valid reason for the decision. A. My P-value greater than...

2. Suppose that a national survey finds that 73 percent of restaurant employees say that work stress has a negative impact on their personal lives. A random sample of 200 employees of a large restaurant chain finds that 141 employees say that work stress has a negative impact on their personal lives. Conduct a hypothesis testing to test whether the percentage of work-stressed employees for the restaurant chain differs from the national percentage. Is this an one-sample or two-sample test?...

4) Your company manufactures 200 mg ibuprofen tablets. You randomly sample 25 tablets and measure their mass, then calculate the average mass X from this sample. You know that the standard deviation of tablet mass from your manufacturing process is ơ- 0 mg a. Specify a null and alternative process to determine whether or the mass of ibuprofen tablets from your process is 200 mg b. You reject the null hypothesis...
