When engaging in weight-control (fitness/fat burning) types of exercise, a person is expected to attain about 60% of their maximum heart rate. For 20-year-olds, this rate is approximately 120 bpm. Does a 20-year-old have a lower rate on average? A researcher conducted a hypothesis test and set the level of significance a at 5%. a) The P-value for the one-sample t test is A. larger than 0.05. B. between 0.025 and 0.05. C. between 0.001 and 0.0025.

Question
When engaging in weight-control (fitness/fat burning) types of exercise, a person
is expected to attain about 60% of their maximum heart rate. For 20-year-olds,
this rate is approximately 120 bpm. Does a 20-year-old have a lower rate on
average? A researcher conducted a hypothesis test and set the level of
significance a at 5%.
a) The P-value for the one-sample t test is
A. larger than 0.05.
B. between 0.025 and 0.05.
C. between 0.001 and 0.0025.
D. below 0.001
b) The P-value for the one-sample t test is
significance (a). Therefore we
A. Iarger; reject
B. larger; do not reject
C. smaller; do not reject
D. smaller, reject
c) What is the researcher's conclusion?
than the level of
the null hypothesis (H0).
a. There is enough evidence to conclude that the population mean
heart rate of 20-year-olds is less than 107 bpm.
b. There is enough evidence to conclude that the population mean
heart rate of 20-year-olds is less than 120 bpm.
c. There is not enough evidence to conclude that the population mean
heart rate of 20-year-olds is less than 120 bpm.
d. There is enough evidence to conclude that the sample mean heart
rate of 20-year-olds is less than 120 bpm.
