A group of students at Boston University who are well trained in math, make a claim regarding their school’s superiority. They have found that for a random sample of 200 students and given a standardized statistics test that has a known mean μ = 500. This group’s mean on the test was 520 with a standard deviation of 100. Is their claim justified? Create H0 and H1. Compute t. (note that you will first need to compute sm) t = (M-µ)/Sm Find critical t if you are running a one-tailed test and have set probability at .05. What decision do you make about HO? (hint: find critical cut-off region values first)

STATE: Andrew plans to retire in 4040 years. He plans to invest part of his retirement funds in stocks, so he seeks out information on past returns. He learns that from 1966 to 2015, the annual returns on S&P 500500 had mean 11.0%11.0% and standard deviation 17.0%17.0% . PLAN: The distribution of annual returns on common stocks is roughly symmetric, so the mean return over even a moderate number of years is close to Normal. We can use the Central Limit Theorem to make an inference. SOLVE: What is the probability, ?1p1 , assuming that the past pattern of variation continues, that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 4040 years will exceed 10%10% ? (Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places.) ?1= ?
A random sample of n1 = 14 winter days in Denver gave a sample mean pollution index x1 = 43. Previous studies show that σ1 = 19. For Englewood (a suburb of Denver), a random sample of n2 = 12 winter days gave a sample mean pollution index of x2 = 37. Previous studies show that σ2 = 13. Assume the pollution index is normally distributed in both Englewood and Denver. (a) State the null and alternate hypotheses. H0: μ1 = μ2; H1: μ1 > μ2 H0: μ1 < μ2; H1: μ1 = μ2 H0: μ1 = μ2; H1: μ1 < μ2 H0: μ1 = μ2; H1: μ1 ≠ μ2 (b) What sampling distribution will you use? What assumptions are you making? The Student's t. We assume that both population distributions are approximately normal with known standard deviations. The standard normal.

For each of the following situations determine if the Central Limit Theorem can be applied: (Type Y for Yes and N for No) a. In the world populations, normal body temperature follows a normal distribution with mean = 98.6 degrees F and a standard deviation of 0.6. The mean body temperature will be determined for a randomly selected group of 14 individuals. Answer:Blank 1 b.

Now assume that you are randomly selecting 800 students to determine the mean number of songs on the iPod. Answer:Blank 3
Dr. Abba hypothesizes A physician hypothesizes that males have higher systolic blood pressure than females. that students will rate their life satisfaction lower at the completion of a humanities course. To test this hypothesis, he collects life satisfaction ratings for all students in the course at the start of the semester and again at the end of the semester. Below are the data.
