As a part of her studies, Floretta gathered data on the length of time between dentist visits for a sample of 28 individuals. She works through the testing procedure:
At the 5% significance level, does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean length of time between dentist visits is less than 192 days?
Select the correct answer below:
We should reject the null hypothesis because t0<tα/2. So, at the 5% significance level, the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the average length of time between dentist visits is not equal to 192 days.
We should reject the null hypothesis because t0>−tα/2. So, at the 5% significance level, the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the average length of time between dentist visits is not equal to 192 days.
We should reject the null hypothesis because −tα/2<t0<tα/2. So, at the 5% significance level, the data do not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the average length of time between dentist visits is not equal to 192 days.
We should not reject the null hypothesis because t0>−tα/2. So, at the 5% significance level, the data do not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the average length of time between dentist visits is not equal to 192 days.
We should not reject the null hypothesis because −tα/2<t0<tα/2. So, at the 5% significance level, the data do not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the average length of time between dentist visits is not equal to 192 days.

Please give me a thumbs-up if this helps you out. Thank you!

As a part of her studies, Josslyn gathered data on the durations of 27 wildfires in the western United States. She works through the testing procedure: H0:μ≤16; Ha:μ>16 α=0.01 The test statistic is t0=x¯−μ0sn√=2.934. The critical value is t0.01=2.479. At the 1% significance level, does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean duration of a wildfire in the western United States is more than 16 days? Answers Select the correct answer below: We should reject the null...
According to a study conducted two years ago by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the average length of stay in a hospital was 16.2 days in Japan. A researcher in Japan suspects that the average length of stay in a hospital has actually increased in Japan since the study was released by the OECD two years ago. To test her suspicion, the researcher selected a random sample of 111 hospital patients in Japan and calculated the average...
Nancy, a golfer, claims that her average driving distance is 253 yards. During a practice session, Nancy has a sample driving distance mean of 229.6 yards based on 18 drives. At the 2% significance level, does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that Nancy's mean driving distance is less than 253 yards? Accept or reject the hypothesis given the sample data below. H0:μ=253 yards; Ha:μ<253 yards α=0.02 (significance level) z0=−0.75 p=0.2266 Select the correct answer below: Do not reject...
Data on 14 randomly selected athletes was obtained concerning
their cardiovascular fitness (measured by time to exhaustion
running on a treadmill) and performance in a 20-km ski race. Both
variables were measured in minutes and a regression analysis was
performed.

Home Towne Realty claims the average price of a house in the outskirts of Asheville, NC is $100,000. A random sample of 50 houses in the outskirts resulted in a mean price of $120,000. The standard deviation was $47,000. We want to determine if the Home Towne Realty claims are true. If the test statistic is t = 3.009, and we reject H0 if either t < -2.01 or z > 2.01, which statement correctly interprets the decisions. Group of...
The average American gets a haircut every 43 days. Is the average larger for college students? The data below shows the results of a survey of 12 college students asking them how many days elapse between haircuts. Assume that the distribution of the population is normal. 45, 53, 39, 46, 37, 47, 43, 40, 35, 53, 39, 55 What can be concluded at the the α = 0.10 level of significance level of significance? A) For this study, we should...
As a part of his studies, Horace gathered data on the birth weights of 22 babies at a city hospital. He works through the testing procedure: H0:μ≥6.1; Ha:μ<6.1 α=0.04 The test statistic is t0=x¯−μ0sn√=−2.91. The critical value is −t0.04=−1.84. At the 4% significance level, does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean birth weight of babies at the city hospital is less than 6.1 pounds? Select the correct answer below: A) There is sufficient evidence that the...
00:55:16 A wedding website states that the average cost of a wedding is $29,205. One concerned bride hopes that the average is less than reported. To see if her hope is correct, she surveys 36 recently married couples and finds that the average cost of weddings in the sample was $27,338. Assuming that the population standard deviation is $4532, is there sufficient evidence to support the bride's hope at the 0.02 level of significance? Step 3 of 3: Draw a...
Nota Ten years ago, the average amount of time a family spent eating supper together was 27.8 minutes. A sociolegist believes and finds the sample average to be 24.307 minutes.

Conduct and Interpret a One-Mean Hypothesis Test Using the Critical Approach With an Unknown Standard Deviation Question According to a research study, college athletes slept 7.9 hours each night last year, on average. A random sample of 19 college athletes was surveyed and the mean amount of time per night each athlete slept was 8.2. This data has a sample standard deviation of0.8. (Assume that the scores are normally distributed.) Researchers conduct a one-mean hypothesis test at the 10% significance...
