A study found that consumers are making average monthly debt payments of $983 (Experian.com, November 11,...
a. Select the null and the alternative hypotheses in order to test whether average monthly debt payments are greater than $900 НО : 900 ; НА : 900 H0: μ 900; HA: μ > 900 0H0: μ 900, HA: μ < 900 0 b. What assumption regarding the population is necessary to implement this step? Unimodal and fairly symmetric O Unimodal and skewed Not necessarily unimodal and symmetric Not necessarily unimodal and skewed c-1. Calculate the value of the test...
Consider the following hypotheses: Ho: μ s 57.1 HA: μ > 57.1 A sample of 22 observations yields a sample mean of 58.2. Assume that the sample is drawn from a normal population with a population standard deviation of 3.6. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) a-1.

A mortgage specialist would like to analyze the average mortgage rates for Atlanta, Georgia. He collects data on the annual percentage rates (APR in %) for 30-year fixed loans as shown in the following table. If he is willing to assume that these rates are randomly drawn from a normally distributed population, can he conclude that the mean mortgage rate for the population exceeds 4.2%? Test the hypothesis at the 10% level of significance. (You may find it useful to...
In order to conduct a hypothesis test for the population mean, a random sample of 24 observations is drawn from a normally distributed population. The resulting sample mean and sample standard deviation are calculated as 4.8 and 0.8, respectively. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) H0 : μ s 4 , 5 against HA: μ > 4 . 5 a-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic.

A local bottler in Hawaii wishes to ensure that an average of 23 ounces of passion fruit juice is used to fill each bottle. In order to analyze the accuracy of the bottling process, he takes a random sample of 42 bottles. The mean weight of the passion fruit juice in the sample is 22.41 ounces. Assume that the population standard deviation is 1.44 ounce. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table...
In order to conduct a hypothesis test for the population mean, a random sample of 20 observations is drawn from a normally distributed population. The resulting sample mean and sample standard deviation are calculated as 12.9 and 2.4, respectively. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or ttable). Ho : μ 12.1 against HA: μ > 12.1 a-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round all intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places...

A local bottler in Hawaii wishes to ensure that an average of 16 ounces of passion fruit juice is used to fill each bottle. In order to analyze the accuracy of the bottling process, he takes a random sample of 48 bottles. The mean weight of the passion fruit juice in the sample is 15.80 ounces.
