A cheerleading squad received a mean rating (out of 100 possible points) of

75 ± 9 (μ ± σ)

in competitions over the previous three seasons. The same cheerleading squad performed in 16 local competitions this season with a mean rating equal to 77 in competitions. Suppose we conduct a one-independent sample z-test to determine whether mean ratings increased this season (compared to the previous three seasons) at a 0.05 level of significance.

(a) State the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
z =

State whether to retain or reject the null hypothesis.

Retain the null hypothesis.Reject the null hypothesis.    


(b) Compute effect size using Cohen's d. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
d =

    Weatherwise is a magazine published by the American Meteorological Society. One issue gives a rating system used to classify Nor'easter storms that frequently hit New England and can cause much damage near the ocean. A severe storm has an average peak wave height of μ = 16.4 feet for waves hitting the shore. Suppose that a Nor'easter is in progress at the severe storm class rating. Peak wave heights are usually measured from land (using binoculars) off fixed cement piers....

    Unfortunately, arsenic occurs naturally in some ground water†. A mean arsenic level of μ = 8.0 parts per billion (ppb) is considered safe for agricultural use. A well in Texas is used to water cotton crops. This well is tested on a regular basis for arsenic. A random sample of 41 tests gave a sample mean of x = 7.0 ppb arsenic, with s = 2.6 ppb. Does this information indicate that the mean level of arsenic in this well...
