A researcher is testing the hypothesis that more than 5% of parts are defective using a random sample of 498 parts. If the z test statistic is 3.9271, then how many parts were defective in the sample? (Record your answer accurate to the nearest integer with standard rounding.)

Hypothesis Testing Example 7: Steps in Hypothesis Testing: A manufacturer claims that the thickness of the spearmint gum it produces is 7.5 one- hundredths of an inch. A quality control specialist regularly checks this claim. On one production run, he took a random sample of n= 10 pieces of gum and measured their thickness.

Q1. Hypothesis testing using a Z test (14 points) A professor has been teaching introductory statistics for many years and the final exam performance (30 points total) has been very consistent from class to class and the scores have been normally distributed. Overall, the whole data base (i.e. population) of final exam scores has a mean (μ) of 20 points and a standard deviation (σ) of 5 points. Because 20 out of 30 is only about 67%, the professor would...

A researcher is interested in testing the hypothesis H0 : μ = 8 vs H1 : μ > 8, using a sample of size 81. The population standard deviation is known to be σ = 5. The researcher decides to reject H0 if X ≥ 9. What is the significance level of this hypothesis test? Assume that the population is normal. Express your answer as a decimal (not as a percentage).

Question # 3. A contract with a parts supplier calls for no more than 0.04 defects in the large shipment of parts. To test whether the shipment meets the contract, the receiving company has selected a random sample of n = 100 parts and found 6 defects. If the hypothesis test is to be conducted using a significance level equal to 0.05, what is the test statistic and what conclusion should the company reach based on the sample data?

A sociologist is interested in testing the hypothesis that “immigrants have more years of working experiences than the general population in the city of Albany.” A survey was carried out and information is given below: mean years of working experiences for immigrants=19.2 with standard deviation of 7.4 (and sample size=100), mean years of working experiences for the general population is 17.3. Assuming α=.05, follow 5-step model to conduct hypothesis testing. Clearly identify if this is one-tailed or two-tailed test. For...
