According to the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the United States in which the driver had a positive blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is .36. Suppose a random sample of 105 traffic fatalities in the state of Hawaii results in 51 that involved a positive BAC. D) Check whether the conditions for hypothesis testing using the P-value approach are meet.
The Transportation Security Administration would like to compare the average amount of time it takes passengers to pass through airport security at Philadelphia versus Orlando during peak times. A random sample of 25 travelers in Philadelphia spent an average of 14.6 minutes to pass through airport security with a sample standard deviation of 5.8 minutes. A random sample of 27 travelers in Orlando spent an average of 11.5 minutes to pass through airport security with a sample standard deviation of 4.9 minutes. Perform a hypothesis test using α = 0.05 to determine if the average time to pass through security in Philadelphia is more than the average time to pass through security in Orlando. Assume the population variances for time through security at these two locations are equal. Hint: the alternative hypothesis should be μ1 - μ2 > 0.
An information technology help desk has a service level agreement (SLA) that says that clients should be contacted about their service requests within 1 hour (60 minutes) of the help desk receiving the request. Jackie, the help desk manager, wants to check if the help desk is actually taking longer than 60 minutes to respond. For a random sample of 20 service requests, Jackie obtained the time between the help desk receiving the request and the client being contacted. The marketer conducts a one-mean hypothesis at the 5% significance level, to test whether the response time is greater than 60 minutes. (a) Which answer choice shows the correct null and alternative hypotheses for this test? Select the correct answer below: H0:μ=20; Ha:μ<20, which is a left-tailed test. H0:μ=60; Ha:μ<60, which is a left-tailed test. H0:μ=20; Ha:μ>20, which is a right-tailed test. H0:μ=60; Ha:μ>60, which is a right-tailed test.

Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged 1407 referee calls, with the result that 425 of the calls were overturned. Women challenged 771 referee calls, and 213 of the calls were overturned. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test. Consider the first sample to be the sample of male tennis players who challenged referee calls and the second sample to be the sample of female tennis players who challenged referee calls.

In preparation for upcoming wage negotiations with the union, the managers for the Bevel Hardware Company want to establish the time required to assemble a kitchen cabinet. A first line supervisor believes that the job should take 5555 minutes on average to complete. A random sample of 2626 cabinets has an average assembly time of 5858 minutes with a population standard deviation of 88 minutes. Is there overwhelming evidence to contradict the first line supervisor’s belief at a 0.020.02 significance level? Assume the population of assembly times is approximately normally distributed. Step 2 of 3 : Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.
