Write the null and alternative hypotheses you would use to test each situation. a) In the 1950s, only about 40% of high school graduates went on to college. Has the percentage changed? b) Twenty percent of cars of a certain model have needed costly transmission work after being driven between 50,000 and 100,000 miles. The manufacturer hopes that a redesign of a transmission component has solved this problem. c) We field-test a new-flavor soft drink, planning to market it only if we are sure that over 60% of the people like the flavor.

Prior to menus displaying calorie counts, the average calorie intake of diners at a restaurant was 1100 calories. After calorie counts started to be displayed on menus, a nutritionist collected data on the number of calories consumed at this restaurant from a random sample of diners. Do these data provide convincing evidence of a difference in the average calorie intake of a diners at this restaurant?In symbols, the hypotheses are: Ho: μ = 1100Ha: μ ≠ 1100 Ho: μ = 1100Ha: μ < 1100 Ho: μ = 1100Ha: μ = 1100 Ho: μ < 1100Ha: μ = 1100 (b) Based on the performance of those who took the GRE exam between July 1, 2004 and June 30, 2007, the average Verbal Reasoning score was calculated to be 462.

Any athlete who fails the Enormous State University's women's soccer fitness test is automatically dropped from the team. Last year, Mona Header failed the test, but claimed that this was due to the early hour. (The fitness test is traditionally given at 5 AM on a Sunday morning.) In fact, a study by the ESU Physical Education Department suggested that 48% of athletes fit enough to play on the team would fail the soccer test, although no unfit athlete could possibly pass the test. It also estimated that 42% of the athletes who take the test are fit enough to play soccer. Assuming these estimates are correct, what is the probability that Mona was justifiably dropped? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
