A hypothesis test is to be performed for a population mean with null hypothesis
=:H0 μ=μ0. Find the critical value(s) for a two-tailed test with =α=0.01 and draw a graph that illustrates your answer.
Using Nonparametric Tests. In Exercises 1–10, use a 0.05 significance level with the indicated test. If no particular test is specified, use the appropriate nonparametric test from this chapter.
Speed Dating In a study of speed dating conducted at Columbia University, female subjects were asked to rate the attractiveness of their male dates, and a sample of the results is listed below (1 = not attractive; 10 = extremely attractive). Use the sign test to test the claim that the sample is from a population with a median equal to 5.
Your hypothesis test for a mean with n = 18 has a two-tailed critical region. The test statistic is tt = -1.38. Find the p-value accurate to 2 decimal places.
