Question
The average house has 15 paintings on its walls. Is the mean larger for houses owned by teachers? The data
show the results of a survey of 16 teachers who were asked how many paintings they have in their houses.
Assume that the distribution of the population is normal.
18, 15, 17, 14, 16, 17, 18, 15, 15, 14, 14, 14, 15, 15, 16, 18
What can be concluded at the a =
0.05 level of significance?
a. For this study, we should use Select an answer
b. The null and alternative hypotheses would be:
Но:
Select an answer v
H1:
Select an answer v
c. The test statistic ? v =
(please show your answer to 3 decimal places.)
d. The p-value =
(Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.)
e. The p-value is ? va
f. Based on this, we should Select an answer v the null hypothesis.
g. Thus, the final conclusion is that ...
O The data suggest the population mean is not significantly more than 15 at a = 0.05, so there is
sufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean number of paintings that are in
teachers' houses is equal to 15.

h. Interpret the p-value in the context of the study.
O If the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers' houses is 15 and if you survey
another 16 teachers then there would be a 4.27% chance that the population mean number of
paintings that are in teachers' houses would be greater than 15.
There is a 4.27% chance of a Type I error.
There is a 4.27% chance that the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers'
houses is greater than 15.
O If the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers' houses is 15 and if you survey
another 16 teachers then there would be a 4.27% chance that the sample mean for these 16
teachers would be greater than 15.69.
i. Interpret the level of significance in the context of the study.
O There is a 5% chance that the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers'
houses is more than 15.
O If the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers' houses is 15 and if you survey
another 16 teachers, then there would be a 5% chance that we would end up falsely concuding
that the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers' houses is more than 15.
There is a 5% chance that teachers are so poor that they are all homeless.
O If the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers' houses is more than 15 and if
you survey another 16 teachers, then there would be a 5% chance that we would end up falsely
concuding that the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers' houses is equal
to 15.
