17. Suppose that the mean time for a certain car to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour was 8.6 seconds. Suppose that you want to test the claim that the average time to accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour is longer than 8.6 seconds. What would you use for the alternative hypothesis?
a. |
H1 : μ < 8.6 seconds |
|
b. |
H1 : μ > 8.6 seconds |
|
c. |
H1 : μ = 8.6 seconds |
|
d. |
H1 : μ ≥ 8.6 seconds |
|
e. |
H1 : μ ≤ 8.6 seconds |
Solution :
This is the RIGHT tailed test .
The null and alternative hypothesis is ,
H0 : =8.6
Ha : >8.6
b. |
H1 : μ > 8.6 secondS |

Suppose that the mean time for a certain car to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour was 7.5 seconds. Suppose that you want to test the claim that the average time to accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hours is longer than 7.5 seconds. Set up the hypothesis test for this claim. Use a 1% level of significance. h1 : h2: alpha:
Suppose that the mean time for a certain car to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour was 7.6 seconds. Suppose that you want to set up a statistical test to challenge the claim of 7.6 seconds. What would you use for the null hypothesis? H0 : μ > 7.6 seconds H0 : μ = 7.6 seconds H0 : μ < 7.6 seconds H0 : μ ≠ 7.6 seconds H0 : μ ≤ 7.6 seconds
1) A researcher reported that the mean time for a Honda CRV to go from 0 to 55 miles per hour was 6.8 seconds. If you want to set up a statistical test to challenge the claim of 6.8 seconds, what would you use for the null hypothesis? a. µ ≠ 6.8 seconds b. µ = 6.8 seconds c. µ > 6.8 seconds d. µ < 6.8 seconds
The engine of a car expends a certain amount of energy to accelerate from 0 miles per hour to 60 miles per hour. Compared to the energy to accelerate from 0 to 30 miles per hour, the energy from 30 to 60 miles per hour is: A. half as much B. as much C. twice as much D. three times as much E. four times as much

H0: μ > 34H0: μ < 34 H0: μ = 34H0: μ ≠ 34H0: μ ≥ 34 (b) State the alternate hypothesis if you have no information regarding how the population mean might differ from 34. H1: μ > 34 H1: μ < 34 H1: μ = 34. H1: μ ≠ 34. H1: μ ≥ 34 (c) State the alternative hypothesis if you...

1. Hypothesis Testing - Setup: Suppose you want to test the claim that the mean volume in all 12-ounce cans of Fizzy Pop soda is equal to 12 ounces. In a sample of 120 cans, you find the sample mean is 12.2 ounces. (a) What is the claim? μ < 12 μ > 12 μ = 12 μ = 12.2 (b) What does μ represent? the proportion of all cans with a volume = 12 ounces the mean volume of...
LaTech Stat Ch6: Problem 4 gallon achieved by its cars. Suppose that the sample mean for a randorm sample of 100 cars is 29.7 miles and assume the standard deviation is 3.6 miles. Now suppose the car producer wants to test the hypothesis that , the mean number of miles per gallon, is 27 against the alternative hypothesis that it is not 27. Conduct a test using a 05 by giving the following OA.We can reject the null hypothesis that...
In a comprehensive road test on new car models, one variable measured is the time it takes the car to accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour. To model acceleration time, a regression analysis is conducted on a random sample of 129 new cars. TIME60: y = Elapsed time (in seconds) from 0 mph to 60 mph MAX x = Maximum speed attained (miles per hour) The simple linear model E(y) = Bo + Bjx was fit to the...
