What type of statistical test are you conducting if h1 states that the parameter is greater than the value claimed in h0? a) left-tailed b) right-tailed c) two-tailed d) dove-tailed
For the situation described below, state the null and alternative hypotheses to be tested. (Enter != for ≠ as needed.) A new variety of pearl millet is expected to provide an increased yield over the variety presently in use, which has a mean yield of about 55 bushels per acre.
a. Which of the two excel outputs above is the correct result of the data?b. What is the appropriate set of hypotheses for this test?c. From the given results above, which test is appropriate to test the significant difference between the heat-producing capacities of the coal from the mines?d. What is the t- critical value?e. What is the p-value?f. At α=0.05, what is the correct decision?
For the following setting, (a) describe the parameter of interest, and (b) state the appropriate hypotheses for a significance test. According to the website sleepdeprivation.com, 85% of teens are getting less than eight hours of sleep a night. Jannie wonders whether this result holds in her large high school. She asks an SRS of 100 students at the school how much sleep they get on a typical night. In all, 75 of the responders said less than 8 hours.
If right-eye and left-eye dominance are equally prevalent, what would you expect the numerical value of the parameter to be? Is this the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis? e. If people are more likely to be right-eye dominant than left, what can you say about the numerical value of the parameter? Is this the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis?
For each of the following settings, define the parameter of interest and write the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses for the test that is described. Consider the scenario ai from the previous question. Suppose you take an SRS of 50 avocados and find that the mean is 1.1 inches, which yields a p-value of 0.0542. Interpret the P-value in the context of the problem. What conclusion would you draw at the =0.05 level? At the =0.10 level?
A scientist studying local lakes claims that there is a linear relationship between a lake’s level of mercury and the lake’s depth. The scientist collected data to test the claim at a significance level of α=0.01. The following hypotheses were tested. H0:β1=0Ha:β1≠0 The test yielded a t-value of 2.7 and a p-value of 0.012. Which of the following is a correct conclusion about the scientist’s claim? The null hypothesis is rejected since 0.012>0.01. There is sufficient evidence to suggest that there is a linear relationship between a lake’s level of mercury and the lake’s depth. A The null hypothesis is not rejected since 0.012>0.01. There is sufficient evidence to suggest that there is a linear relationship between a lake’s level of mercury and the lake’s depth. B The null hypothesis is rejected since 0.012>0.01. There is not sufficient evidence to suggest that there is a linear relationship between a lake’s level of mercury and the lake’s depth.…
For each of the following situations, identify whether the appropriate test is a paired t-test (for parameter µd) or a two-sample t-test (for parameter µ1 - µ2). Briefly explain your answer. Sixty students were matched by initial pulse rate, with the two with the highest pulse forming a pair, and so on. Within each pair, one student was randomly chosen to drink a caffeinated beverage, while the other one drank an equivalent amount of water. Their pulse rates were measured 10 minutes later, to test whether caffeine consumption elevates pulse rates. To determine whether lack of sleep increases appetite, researchers recruited 50 volunteers and randomly assigned 25 of them to sleep at least 8 hours a night and the other 25 to sleep at most 5 hours a night, for 3 days. Calorie intake was recorded for all 50 volunteers for the 3-day period.
As a result of complaints from customers about delivery times, the manager at a pizza delivery service is ready to undertake a study to determine the average delivery time.

For each of the following settings, define the parameter of interest and write the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses for the test that is described. Scenario 2: According to the Galactic Empire’s study, 0.5% of the people in the galaxy are Jedi. You are interested in determining if the proportion of the Jedi on the planet Tatooine is different than the galaxy’s proportion.
For each of the following three studies Identify whether the hypothesis can be tested experimentally or if it is a non-experimental hypothesis. What is the independent variable/grouping variable (and which is it, IV or GV)? What is the dependent variable? Identify the null hypothesis, both in your own words and by writing the statistical hypothesis using the population parameter notation discussed in class. What is the non-directional alternate hypothesis? Write it both in your own words and the statistical parameter notation discussed in class. (Make sure these both specify the same direction.) Make your best guess about a directional alternative hypothesis – that is, what you would expect to happen in this study. Write it in your own words and using the statistical parameter notation discussed in class. ***Be sure you use the correct label (H0 or H1/Ha) for your statistical hypotheses. Also, if make sure I know what the groups are (in other words, if you use m1 in your…
