It has been found that the average time Internet users spend online per week is 18.3 hours with a population variance of 32.49. A random sample of 48 teenagers indicated that their mean amount of Internet time per week was 20.9 hours. At 10% level of significance, can it be concluded that the mean time differs from 18.3 hours per week?

Find the following:

1. Type of test

2. Decision

= 18.3; μ> 18.3
Reject Ho
0.28%
= 18.3; 18.3
t-test
0.16%
one-tailed test
<18.3; μ> 18.3
z-test
0.04%

O two-tailed test
O Do not reject Ho
O 10%

Definition Definition Measure of central tendency that is the average of a given data set. The mean value is evaluated as the quotient of the sum of all observations by the sample size. The mean, in contrast to a median, is affected by extreme values. Very large or very small values can distract the mean from the center of the data. Arithmetic mean: The most common type of mean is the arithmetic mean. It is evaluated using the formula: μ = 1 N ∑ i = 1 N x i Other types of means are the geometric mean, logarithmic mean, and harmonic mean. Geometric mean: The nth root of the product of n observations from a data set is defined as the geometric mean of the set: G = x 1 x 2 ... x n n Logarithmic mean: The difference of the natural logarithms of the two numbers, divided by the difference between the numbers is the logarithmic mean of the two numbers. The logarithmic mean is used particularly in heat transfer and mass transfer. ln x 2 − ln x 1 x 2 − x 1 Harmonic mean: The inverse of the arithmetic mean of the inverses of all the numbers in a data set is the harmonic mean of the data. 1 1 x 1 + 1 x 2 + ...
