Based on information from the Federal Highway Administration web
site, the average annual miles driven per vehicle in the United
States is 13.5 thousand miles. Assume σ ≈ 700 miles.
Suppose that a random sample of 41 vehicles owned by residents of
Chicago showed that the average mileage driven last year was 13.2
thousand miles. Would this indicate that the average miles driven
per vehicle in Chicago is different from (higher or lower than) the
national average? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

The average annual miles driven per vehicle in the United States is 11.1 thousand miles, with σ ≈ 600 miles. Suppose that a random sample of 41 vehicles owned by residents of Chicago showed that the average mileage driven last year was 10.9 thousand miles. Does this indicate that the average miles driven per vehicle in Chicago is different from (higher or lower than) the national average? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

The average annual miles driven per vehicle in the United States is 11.1 thousand miles, with σ ≈ 600 miles. Suppose that a random sample of 31 vehicles owned by residents of Chicago showed that the average mileage driven last year was 10.8 thousand miles. Does this indicate that the average miles driven per vehicle in Chicago is different from (higher or lower than) the national average? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

According to the U.S. Federal Highway Administration, the mean number of miles driven annually is 12,200. Patricia believes that residents of the state of Montana drive more than the national average. She obtains a sample of 35 drivers from a list of registered drivers in the state on Montana. The mean number of miles driven for the 35 drivers is 12,896. Assume σ = 3800 miles. (a) What is the population? What is the sample? (b) At α = 0.1...
D5: According to the US Federal Highway Administration, the mean number of miles driven annually is 12,200. A state official claims that residents of her state drive more than the national average. A simple random sample of 37 drivers from this state are selected. The mean number of miles driven for this sample of 37 drivers is 12,861.7 and the sample standard deviation was 2,200 miles.
for these questions I need help on just the questions on all of them where it says "what is the value of the sample test statistic?" 24.) The average annual miles driven per vehicle in the United States is 11.1 thousand miles, with σ ≈ 600 miles. Suppose that a random sample of 36 vehicles owned by residents of Chicago showed that the average mileage driven last year was 10.9thousand miles. Does this indicate that the average miles driven per...
6. Pedestrian Deaths A researcher wanted to determinse whether pedestrian deaths were uniformly distributed over the days of the week.
