The researcher at AUA has a hypothesis that on average it takes more than 6 weeks for the AUA bachelor student to find a job after the graduation. To test this assumption a random sample of 50 AUA bachelor graduates are taken with mean of 6.3 and standard deviation of 1.2. Test the hypothesis with the significance level of alpha = 0.05. The test statistics is equal to and the critical value is equal to thus The Null hypothesis that ]is[ not rejected mu is more than or equal to 6 -2.01 mu is less than or equal to 6 -1.77 mu is more than 6 rejected 2.01 1.77 1.68

The local swim team is considering offering a new semi-private class aimed at entry-level swimmers, but needs at minimum number of swimmers to sign up in order to be cost effective. Last year’s data showed that during 8 swim sessions the average number of entry-level swimmers attending was 15. Suppose the instructor wants to conduct a hypothesis test. The alternative hypothesis for this hypothesis test is: "the population mean is less than 15". The sample size is 8, σ is known, and alpha =.05, the critical value of z is?
The Office of the university registrar would like to know if such degree programs are related to the gender of the students. The test claim that the proportions of the students enrolled are equal in each degree program at alpha=0.10 Using the data on the number of currently enrolled students in each gender (M of F) in each of the four degree programs, find the: a. Table showing the observed and expected values b. Chi-square critical Value c. Chi-square test statistic d. Accept or Reject the null hypothesis?
A nationwide study of undergraduate students reported that the mean number of drinks consumed per week during the spring semester is 7.96. The mean number of drinks consumed per week at USC is 7.64 (s.d.=2.55, N=412 Health services is concerned that USC students are consuming significantly more alcohol per week than the national average. Using an alpha level of .05, Is there sufficient evidence to be concerned? Be sure to select the correct critical value for the alternative hypothesis, and then use this evidence to make your conclusion
Assume that you have a sample of n1=8, with the sample mean X1=44, and a sample standard deviation of S1=5, and you have an independent sample of n2=14 from another population with a sample mean of X2=30 and the sample standard deviation S2=6. Using a significance level of α=0.025, what is the critical value for a one-tail test of the hypothesis H0: μ1≤ μ2 against the alternative H1: μ1>μ2? The critical value is ______ (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
The NAEP considers that a national average of 283 is an acceptable performance. Using α = .05, run a two-tail t-test for one sample to test Ho: µ=283 for the 2019 scores. Report the t-obt, df, and p-values. Would you reject the null hypothesis that the 2019 scores come from a population with average 283? If this is the case, does it come from a population from larger or smaller average?
The appearance of leaf pigment glands in the seedling stage of cotton plants is genetically controlled. According to one theory of the control mechanism, the population ratio of glandular to glandless plants resulting from a certain cross should be 11.5, according to another it should be 13:3. In one experiment, the cross produced 89 glandular and 36 glandless plants. Use goodness-of-fit tests (at alpha= 0.10) to determine whether the data is consistent with a) the 11:5 theory, ar b) the 13:3 theory.
To evaluate the effect of a treatment, one sample of n=8 is obtained from a population with population mean: u=40 and the treatment is administered to the individuals in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be M=35. 1. If the sample variance is s^2=32, are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with alpha=.05? (show work please, and state both experimental and statistical hypotheses, and state your decision regarding the H0. (all 4 steps of hypothesis test) 2a. If the sample variance is s^2=72, are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with alpha=.05? (please show your work and state your decision regarding the H0.) 2b. Calculate Effect size by using r^2 (percentage of variance explained) and state the meaning of effect size.
A major credit card company is interested in the proportion of individuals who use a competitor’s credit card. Their null hypothesis is H0: p=0.65H0: p=0.65, and based on a sample they find a sample proportion of 0.70 and a pp-value of 0.053. Is there convincing statistical evidence at the 0.05 level of significance that the true proportion of individuals who use the competitor’s card is actually greater than 0.65 ?
It is known that the volume of containers of a specific lubricant is normally distributed with a variance of 0.03 liters. Test the hypothesis that o^2 is not equal to 0.03 for the random sample of 10 containers with s = 0.24585 l. Use a P-value in your conclusions. Note:In the image, this is the exercise in Spanish, which is the original, to make it more understandable.
The makers of Duracell batteries want to demonstrate that their size AA battery lasts longer than Duracell’s main competitor, the Energizer. Two independent random samples of 100 batteries of each kind are selected. The sample average lives for Duracell and Energizer batteries are found to be X ̄1 = 308 minutes and X ̄2 = 254 minutes with S1 = 84 minutesand S2 = 67 minutes. Is there evidence to substantiate Duracell’s claim that its batterieslast, on an average, longer than Energizer of the same size? Find 95% confidence intervaland make your decision. Given the decision from CI, can you write the p-value range incomparison with α = 0.025?
A humane society claims that less than 39% of U.S. households own a dog. In a random sample of 402 U.S. households, 155say they own a dog. At α=0.01, is there enough evidence to support the society's claim? (a) Write the claim mathematically and identify H0 and Ha. (b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s). (c) Find the standardized test statistic. (d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis, and (e) interpret the decision in the context of the original claim.
In a test of H0: p = 0.8 against H1: p ≠ 0.8, a sample of size 1000 produces Z = 2.05 for the value of the test statistic. Thus the p-value (or observed level of significance) of the test is approximately equal to:
