Suppose that BC financial aid alots a textbook stipend by claiming that the average textbook at BC bookstore costs $$ 91.86. You want to test this claim.

The null and alternative hypothesis in symbols would be:

  • H0:μ≥91.86H0:μ≥91.86
    H1:μ<91.86H1:μ<91.86
  • H0:p=91.86H0:p=91.86
    H1:p≠91.86H1:p≠91.86
  • H0:μ≤91.86H0:μ≤91.86
    H1:μ>91.86H1:μ>91.86
  • H0:p≥91.86H0:p≥91.86
    H1:p<91.86H1:p<91.86
  • H0:μ=91.86H0:μ=91.86
    H1:μ≠91.86H1:μ≠91.86
  • H0:p≤91.86H0:p≤91.86
    H1:p>91.86H1:p>91.86
Correct





The null hypothesis in words would be:

 

  • The average price of textbooks in a sample is $$ 91.86
  • The average price of all textbooks from the store is $$ 91.86
  • The proportion of all textbooks from the store that are less than 91.86 is equal to 50%
  • The average of price of all textbooks from the store is greater than $$ 91.86.
  • The average of price of all textbooks from the store is less than $$ 91.86.
Correct





Based on a sample of 100 textbooks at the store, you find an average of 88.46 and a standard deviation of 19.8.

The point estimate is:  (to 3 decimals)

The 90 % confidence interval (use z*) is: Incorrect to Incorrect (to 3 decimals)

Based on this we:

  • Fail to reject the null hypothesis
  • Reject the null hypothesis
