The mean income per person in the United States is $39,500, and the distribution of incomes follows a normal distribution. A random sample of 16 residents of Wilmington, Delaware, had a mean of $45,500 with a standard deviation of $9,800. At the 0.010 level of significance, is that enough evidence to conclude that residents of Wilmington, Delaware, have more income than the national average? A.) State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis. B.)State the decision rule for 0.010 significance...

The amount of water consumed each day by a healthy adult follows a normal distribution with a mean of 1.28 liters. A health campaign promotes the consumption of at least 2.0 liters per day. A sample of 10 adults after the campaign shows the following consumption in liters: 1.90 1.62 1.78 1.30 1.68 1.46 1.46 1.66 1.32 1.52 At the 0.100 significance level, can we conclude that water consumption has increased? Calculate and interpret the p-value.State the null hypothesis and...
The average annual miles driven per vehicle in the United States is 11.1 thousand miles, with σ ≈ 600 miles. Suppose that a random sample of 41 vehicles owned by residents of Chicago showed that the average mileage driven last year was 10.9 thousand miles. Does this indicate that the average miles driven per vehicle in Chicago is different from (higher or lower than) the national average? Use a 0.05 level of significance. What are we testing in this problem?...
