(4)
______ enough evidence to support the claim of the magazine that the mean amount spent by customers at Burger World is greater than the mean amount spent by customers at Fry World.
Which of these options below are correct?
(1)
mu 1 equals mu 2 .μ1=μ2.
mu 1 less than or equals mu 2 .μ1≤μ2.
mu 1 greater than or equals mu 2 .μ1≥μ2.
(2)
mu 1 not equals mu 2 .μ1≠μ2.
mu 1 greater than mu 2 .μ1>μ2.
mu 1 less than mu 2 .μ1<μ2.
(3)
Fail to reject
Reject
(4)
there is not
there is
To test :
Test statistic :
where , and
Degrees of freedom = 22
We reject the null hypothesis or H0 if the observed value of , where ,
The value of the test statistic :
Critical value :
Now ,
Hence we reject the null hypothesis or H0 .
Thus we have sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean amount spent by a customer at Burger Stop is greater than the mean amount spent by a customer at Fry World.

Preliminary data analyses indicate that the assumptions for using pooled t-procedures are satisfied. Independent random samples of 104 plots with cropland and 98 plots with grassland yielded the given summary statistics for the number of species of bird. At the 55% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that a difference exists in the mean number of species in the two regions? Cropland Grassland x overbar 1 equals 14.44 x overbar 2 equals 15.66 s 1 equals...
