A U.S. Food Survey showed that Americans routinely eat beef in their diet. Suppose that in a study of 49 consumers in Illinois and 64 consumers in Texas the following results were obtained from two samples regarding average yearly beef consumption:
Illinois Texas
= 49 = 64
= 54.1lb = 60.4lb
S1 = 7.0 S2 = 8.0
Formulate a hypothesis so that, if the null hypothesis is rejected, we can conclude that the average amount of beef eaten annually by consumers in Illinois is significantly less than that eaten by consumers in Texas.
A company manager wants to compare the satisfaction levels of his customers from two stores belonging to his company.

Which of the following hypothesis states that there is a significant difference between customer satisfaction levels?
H0 : P1 < P2, H1 : P1 ≥ P2

- Anita's, a fast-food chain specializing in hot dogs and garlic fries, keeps track of the proportion of its customers who decide to eat in the restaurant (as opposed to ordering the food "to go") so it can make decisions regarding the possible construction of in-store play areas, the attendance of its mascot Sammy at the franchise locations, and so on. Anita's reports that of its customers order their food to go. Suppose that this proportion is correct and that a random sample of individual customers is taken. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Estimate the number of customers in the sample who order their food to go by giving the mean of the relevant distribution (that is, the expectation of the relevant random variable). Do not round your response. (b) Quantify the uncertainty of your estimate by giving the standard deviation of the distribution. Round your response to at least three decimal places.arrow_forwardIn Exercises, hypothesis tests are proposed. For each hypothesis test, a.identify the variable.b.identify the two populations.c.determine the null and alternative hypotheses.d.classify the hypothesis test as two tailed, left tailed, or right tailed. Neurosurgery Operative Times. An Arizona State University professor, R. Jacobowitz, Ph.D., in consultation with G. Vishteh, M.D., and other neurosurgeons obtained data on operative times, in minutes, for both a dynamic system (Z-plate) and a static system (ALPS plate). They wanted to perform a hypothesis test to decide whether the mean operative time isless with the dynamic system than with the static system.arrow_forward3.

- Exercise 6.28 provides data on sleep deprivation rates of Californians and Oregonians. The proportion of California residents who reported insucient rest or sleep during each of the preceding 30 days is 8.0%, while this proportion is 8.8% for Oregon residents. These data are based on simple random samples of 11,545 California and 4,691 Oregon residents. a) Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if these data provide strong evidence the rate of sleep deprivation is different for the two states. Use Oregon as Group A and California as Group B.Find the test statistic and p-value. b) It is possible the conclusion of the test in part (a) is incorrect.

- Back in April and May of 1985, the Gallup organization conducted a poll to estimate the percentage of Americans who approved of how President Reagan was handling his job. At the 5% significance level, do the data suggest that the percentage of those who approved of Reagan increased from April to May in 1985?

Several of coworkers do not believe this, so a director decides to do a hypothesis test, at a 1% significance level, to persuade them. He conducts 21 surveys, collects the proper data, and works through the testing procedure: H0: μ≥16; Ha: μ<16 x¯=15.8 σ=1.8 α=0.01 (significance level) The test statistic is z0=x¯−μ0σn√=15.8−161.821√=−0.51 The critical value is −z0.01=−2.33. Conclude whether to reject or not reject H0, and interpret the results. Select the correct answer below: Reject H0. At the 1% significance level, the test results are not statistically significant and at best, provide weak evidence against the null hypothesis. Reject H0.
