A simple random sample of 49 accounts is taken from an account receivablesportfolio of XYZ Ltd and the average account balance is $630. The population standarddeviation σ is known to be $60. Test the hypothesis that the population mean accountbalance is greater than $620 at α = 0.05
Only 20% of registered voters voted in the last election. Will voter participation decline for the upcoming election? Of the 374 randomly selected registered voters surveyed, 71 of them will vote in the upcoming election. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.01 level of significance?
The p-value is ? ≤ > αα
Based on this, we should Select an answer reject fail to reject accept the null hypothesis.
Thus, the final conclusion is that ...
The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly lower than 20% at αα = 0.01, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the percentage of registered voters who will vote in the upcoming election will be lower than 20%.
The data suggest the populaton proportion is significantly lower than 20% at αα = 0.01, so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the the percentage of all registered voters who will vote in the upcoming election will be lower than 20%.

A high school is proud of its advanced chemistry class, in which its 16 students scored an average of 89.3 on the statewide exam. If the population mean is 84.7 with a standard deviation of 9, test the null hypothesis that these 16 students are just a randomly selected group of students and are no different than the rest of the students in the state. (Set the alpha level at .05)
Test the same hypothesis at the .01 level

At significance levels of (a) 0.01 and (b) 0.05, test the hypothesis that the difference in work arrangement matters in the likelihood that the worker files a sick leave for at least 3 days.

You gathered 30 independent samples from your class and obtained an average screen time of 7.8 hours per week, with a sample standard deviation of 2.9 hours.

- A sample of 100 observations from a normal population has a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. The null hypothesis is that the population mean is equal to 48, and the alternative hypothesis is that the population mean is greater than 48. Using a significance level of 0.05, what is the decision and conclusion of the hypothesis test?arrow_forward2. A manufacturer of metal fasteners expects to ship an average of 1197.00 boxes of fasteners per day. A random sample of 65 days produced a mean of 1193.69 boxes per day with a standard deviation of 3.3166 boxes per day. Does evidence exist showing the average number of boxes shipped per day is different from 1197.00, using alpha=10%? If it is different from 1197.00 then the manufacturer stops.a) State clearly your null and alternative hypothesis.b) Calculate the value of the test statistic.c) Find the p-value associated with this test.arrow_forwardA company claims that their new product has an average lifespan of at least 5 years. A sample of 25 products is randomly selected, and the mean lifespan is found to be 4.6 years with a standard deviation of 0.8 years.

- Historically, the proportion of people who trade in their old car to a car dealer when purchasing a new car is 48%. Over the previous six months, in a sample of 115 new car buyers, 46 have traded in their old car. To determine (at the 10% level of significance) whether the proportion of new car buyers that trade in their old car has this is  statistically significantly decreased, what can you conclude concerning the null hypothesis?

A women’s rights organization believes that women are retiring at an older age. To test this, the group polled a simple random sample of 95 recently retired women executives and found that they had a mean age of retirement of 62.3.
