A college claims that students in its football program boast an average GPA of 3.0. A sample one year of 110 players reveals an average GPA of 2.86 with a standard deviation of 0.52. We want to test this claim but are only concerned with whether the true GPA of football players is less than 3.0 (if it’s higher, that’s a good thing).

32. Use the following information for questions 31-34: The average GPA for all college students in the United States as of 2006 was 3.11. We want to test to see if the GPA of students at Texas A&M is higher than the national average. Suppose we survey 47 randomly selected students at Texas A&M and the average GPA is 3.27, with a standard deviation of 0.54. Assuming all conditions are met, conduct a hypothesis test at the 0.01 significance level. What is the...

A guidance counselor claims that the high school students in a college preparation program have higher ACT scores than those in a general program. The sample mean ACT scores for 37 high school students in a college prep program is 22.7 and assume the population standard deviation is 3.5. The sample mean ACT scores for 35 high school students in a general prep program is 21.1. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.9. At = 0.02 , test the...

A publishing company claims that in fall 2019, the average price of college textbooks for a single semester is $385. Suppose you decide to collect data from a random sample of students to assess whether the publisher's claim is reasonable, and you find that in a random sample of 22 college students, the mean price of textbooks for the fall 2019 semester was $433.50 with a standard deviation of $86.92. At the 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to...

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...

A student believed that students in a Health Sciences program at his college studied, on average, more than students in other programs. He decided to assess whether this was true by collecting data on the typical number of hours per week that students studied during the semester. He collected data from a random sample of students. The table below summarizes the results. Sample Standard Deviation n Sample Mean Health Sciences 42 24.3 5.65 Other Programs 35 22.0 8.35 What is...
