A consumer advocacy group is doing a large study on car rental practices. Among other things, the consumer group would like to do a statistical test regarding the mean monthly mileage, u, of cars rented in the U.S. this year. The consumer group has reason to belleve that the mean monthly mileage of cars rented in the U.S. this year is different from last year's mean, which was 2850 miles. The group plans to do a statistical test regarding the value of u. It chooses a random sample of monthly mileages and computes the mean of the sample to be 3000 miles and the standard deviation to be 850 miles. Based on this information, answer the questions below. What are the null hypothesis (H) and the alternative hypothesis (H,) that should be used for the test? H His ? 2850 miles 2850 miles v In the context of this test, what is a Type 1 error? 2850 miles v A Type 1 eror is ? when, in fact, u is ? v the hypothesis that ju is ? 2850 miles Suppose that the group decides not to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might it be making?

A consumer advocacy group is doing a large study on car rental practices. Among other things, the consumer group would like to do a statistical test regarding
the mean monthly mileage, u, of cars rented in the U.S. this year. The consumer group has reason to believe that the mean monthly mileage of cars rented in
the U.S. this year is different from last year's mean, which was 2850 miles.
The group plans to do a statistical test regarding the value of u. It chooses a random sample of monthly mileages and computes the mean of the sample to be
3000 miles and the standard deviation to be 850 miles.
Based on this information, answer the questions below.
What are the null hypothesis (H) and the alternative hypothesis (H,) that should be used for the test?
Ho: H is ?
H: u is ?
Aa
2850 miles
2850 miles v
In the context of this test, what is a Type I error?
A Type I eror is ?
the hypothesis that u is ?
2850 miles v
when, in fact, µ is ?
2850 miles v
Suppose that the group decides not to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might it be making?
