Assume that a random sample of 37 full-time UT students found that their mean cost of textbooks for class is $488 with a standard deviation of $59. Test the claim that the mean cost of textbooks for full-time students is more than the average from 2010 which is $460. The test statistic is 2.89. Find the p-value.

A random sample of 50 students is selected and it is found that the mean of daily internet usage is 70.8 minutes with standard deviation of 13.8 minutes. A hypothesis test was performed to determine whether the true mean usage, µ equal to 72.0 minutes or not. What is the p-value of the test?
The fill volume of a random sample 37 cans of Coke were found to have a mean of ?⎯⎯⎯=12.15 with standard deviation of ?=0.13. Find the value of the test statistic ? for evaluating the null hypothesis ?=12. The test statistic is?
= Question Help For a random sample of 400 students, the mean cost for textbooks during the first semester of college was found to be $374.75, and the sample standard deviation was $30.81. Assuming that the population is normally distributed, find the margin of error of a 95% confidence interval for the population mean The margin of error for a 98% confidence interval is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

A random sample of 15 night students was taken with a sample mean GPA of 2.82 and a standard deviation of 0.05. A random sample of 17 day students was taken with a sample mean GPA of 2.79 and a standard deviation of 0.07. Test the claim that the mean GPA of night students (un) is greater than than the mean GPA of day students (up) at a = 0.10. Assume that the data come from normal populations with unequal...
The college bookstore tells prospective students that the average cost of its textbooks is $102. A random sample of 81 textbooks found the mean price to be $105.80, with a sample standard deviation of $22.50. Assuming the distribution of textbook prices is normally distributed, does this sample indicate that the average cost of textbooks is actually greater than $1027 Use a 5 level of significance for your test. a.) What is a State the null and alternate hypotheses. Will you...
The president of a university claims that the mean time spent partying by all students at this university is not more than 7 hours per week. A random sample of 40 students taken from this university showed that they spent an average of 7.5 hours partying the previous week with a sample standard deviation of 2.3 hours. Use the p-value approach to test at a 5% significance level whether the president’s claim is true.
A book about different colleges' reports that the mean time students at a particular university study each week is 1015 minutes. A dean says she believes the mean is greater than 1015 minutes. To test her claim, she takes a random sample of 64 students and finds that the sample mean is 1050 minutes, with standard deviation 150 minutes 4. Show that this meets the requirements for a significance test for a mean. State the null hypothesis and the alternate...
You are interested to test if the average amount spent on textbooks by McMaster students is lower than $460 per semester. You take a random sample of 801 students at McMaster and find that students in your sample spend on average $495.2 on textbooks per semester. If the standard deviation of the sample, s, is $104.47, calculate the associated test statistic (t-statistic) for this test. Note: 1- Round your intermediate numbers to 4 decimal places. 2- Round you final answer...
The college bookstore tells prospective students that the average cost of its textbooks is $52 with a standard deviation of $4.50. A group of smart statistics students thinks that the average cost is higher. In order to test the bookstore’s claim against their alternative, the students will select a random sample of size 100. Assume that the mean from their random sample is $52.80. What is the Z-score? What percentage of samples would have a higher average cost for text...
