The average expenditure per student (based on average daily attendance) for a certain school year was $10,337 with a population standard deviation of $1560. A survey for the next school year of 150 randomly selected students resulted in a sample mean of $10, 798. Find the P-value? Should the null hypothesis be rejected at alpha = .05 level of significance?

The local police department attempted to estimate the average vehicle speed along a strip of the main street. Using a hidden radar, the speed of a random group of 32 vehicles was measured, yielding a sample average of 36 mph. Assume a population standard deviation of 4 mph Police are adding a new warning sign on Main Street, which they assume will reduce average speeds. The null hypothesis is that the new speed has not changed, with an average content of 36 mph and a standard deviation of 4 mph. After the sign is raised, the average speed of 4 vehicles is measured at 34 miles per hour. i. What is the z score of this change, under the sampling distribution of the null? ii. Should we use a one - tailed or two - tailed test? iii. What is the p value for this z score under this test?
Suppose a researcher is interested in investigating the effectiveness of a new diet plan at reducing BMI among a group of women with similar baseline weights after 1 year. Suppose the group of 45 women vary approximately according to a normal distribution with mean BMI (kg/m2) of 29.5 and a standard deviation of 1.6 kg/m2 after 1 year and the 2 goal BMI was 28.5 kg/m. State your null and alternative hypotheses, and interpret your pvalue, using alpha .05.
A manufacturer of air conditioners seeks to ensure that their air conditioners are efficient enough that they will use no more than 2800 watt/hr under typical usage.The quality control department has tested a sample of 63 air conditioner units and found an average energy use of 7000 watts/hr. From previous tests, it can safely be assumed that the population standard deviation is 10000 watts/hr. Use the p-value approach and a 0.01 level of significance to test to see if the air conditioners are using too much energy. What is the P value?
According the U.S. Department of Education, full-time graduate students receive an average salary of $12,800. The dean of graduate studies at a large state university in PA claims that his graduate students earn more than this. He surveys 46 randomly selected students and finds their average salary is $13,445 with a standard deviation of $1800. With alpha = 0.05, is the dean’s claim correct?
a used car dealership says that the mean price of a three year old sports utility car is $20,000. You suspect this claim is incorrect and find that a random sample of 22 simillar cars has a mean price of $20,640 and a standard deviation of $1990. is there enough evidence to reject the claim at alpha=0.05.
An electrical firm manufactures light bulbs that have a lifetime that is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 800 hours and a standard deviation of 36 hours. Test the hypothesis that μ = 800 hours against the alternative μ ≠ 800, if a random sample of 30 bulbs has an average life of 775 hours. Let alpha = 0.05
A manufacturer of college textbooks is interested in the strength of the bindings produced by a particular binding machine. Strength can be measured by recording the force required to pull the pages from the binding. Assume the population standard deviation is 0.4pounds. What is the minimum sample size needed to estimate this within 0.1 pounds with 96% confidence?
Listed in the data table are amounts of strontium-90 (in millibecquerels, or mBq, per gram of calcium) in a simple random sample of baby teeth obtained from residents in two cities. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations. Do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the mean amount of strontium-90 from city #1 residents is greater than the mean amount from city #2 residents.
