The average student-loan debt is reported to be $25,235. A student believes that the student-loan debt is higher in her area. She takes a random sample of 100 college students in her area and determines the mean student-loan debt is $27,524 and the standard deviation is $6,000. Is there sufficient evidence to support the student's claim at a 5% significance level?
Preliminary:
Test the claim:

At least 0.49 of car crashes occur within 2 miles of the motorists home. a) Express the null and alternative hypotheses in symbolic form for this claim. Ho: p= Ha: Use the following codes to enter the following symbols: ≥≥ enter >= ≤≤ enter <= ≠≠ enter != b) You decide to survey 100 adult Americans and find that 10 of car crashes occur within 2 miles of the motorists home. Find the test statistic. Round to two decimal places....
A student at a four-year college claims that mean enrollment at four-year colleges is higher than at two-year colleges in the United States. Two surveys are conducted. Of the 35 four-year colleges surveyed, the mean enrollment was 5,466 with a standard deviation of 8,191. Of the 35 two-year colleges surveyed, the mean enrollment was 5,068 with a standard deviation of 4,777. Test the student's claim at the 0.10 significance level. a) The null and alternative hypothesis would be: O Hopp...
n 2011, a U.S. Census report determined that 71% of college students work. A researcher thinks this percentage has changed since then. A survey of 110 college students reported that 91 of them work. Is there evidence to support the reasearcher's claim at the 1% significance level? A normal probability plot indicates that the population is normally distributed. a) Determine the null and alternative hypotheses. H0: p= Ha: p Select an answer not = ,< ,> (Put in the correct symbol...
Suppose a university advertises that its average class size is 34 or less. A student organization is concerned that budget cuts have led to increased class sizes and would like to test this claim. A random sample of 40 classes was selected, and the average class size was found to be 37.3 students. Assume that the standard deviation for class size at the college is 9 students. Using a 0.05, complete parts a and b below. a. Does the student...
An economist conducted a hypothesis test to test the claim that the average cost of eating a meal away from home decreased from 2009 to 2010. The average cost of eating a meal away from home in 2009 was $7.15 per person per meal. Assume that all conditions for testing have been met. He used technology to complete the hypothesis test and the p-value is 0.0315. Following is his null and alternative hypothesis and the output from his graphing calculator....
A data set includes data from student evaluations of courses. The summary statistics are nequals 91, x overbar equals4.17, sequals 0.69. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that the population of student course evaluations has a mean equal to 4.25 . Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? A....
Need a little help. Please help You wish to test the claim that the average IQ score is less than 100 at the .10 significance level. You determine the hypotheses are: Ho : μ = 100 H 1 : μ < 100 You take a simple random sample of 41 individuals and find the mean IQ score is 97.2, with a standard deviation of 14.9. Let's consider testing this hypothesis two ways: once with assuming the population standard deviation is...
Please Help! Need to confirm my answer. You wish to test the claim that the average IQ score is less than 100 at the .01 significance level. You determine the hypotheses are: Ho: μ = 100 H1: μ < 100 You take a simple random sample of 100 individuals and find the mean IQ score is 95.7, with a standard deviation of 16. Let's consider testing this hypothesis two ways: once with assuming the population standard deviation is not known...
