According to a researcher, the average level of mercury uptake in wading birds in Everglades has declined over the past several years. Ten years ago, the average level was 15 parts per million (ppm). Suppose we are interested in testing whether the average level today is less than 15 ppm. Describe the type I error for the test of hypothesis. O The mean mercury level is equal to 15 ppm when in fact the mean is less than 15 ppm. O The mean mercury level is less than 15 ppm when in fact the mean is equal to 15 ppm. O The mean mercury level is greater than 15 ppm when in fact the mean is equal to 15 ppm.

You are hired by the governor to study whether a tax on liquor has decreased average liquor consump- tion in your state. You are able to obtain, for a sample of individuals selected at random, the difference in liquor consumption (in ounces) for the years before and after the tax. For person i who is sampled randomly from the population, Y, denotes the change in liquor consumption. Treat these as a random sample from a Normal(µ, o²) distribution. (i) The null hypothesis is that there was no change in average liquor consumption. State this formally in terms of µ. (ii) The alternative is that there was a decline in liquor consumption; state the alternative in terms of µ. (iii) Now, suppose your sample size is n = 900 and you obtain the estimates ỹ = -32.8 and s = 466.4. Calculate the t statistic for testing Ho against H¡; obtain the p-value for the test. (Because of the large sample size, just use the standard normal distribution tabulated in Table G.1.) Do you reject H, at the 5% level?…
