Week 7 Assignment – Conducting a Hypothesis Test for Mean – Population Standard Deviation Known P Value Approach

Activity 1

Question

Shawn, a competitor in cup stacking, has a sample stacking time mean of 9.2 seconds from 13 trials. Shawn still claims that her average stacking time is 8.5 seconds, and the high average can be attributed to chance. At the 4% significance level, does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that Shawn’s mean stacking time is greater than 8.5 seconds? Given the sample data below, accept or reject the hypothesis.

H0:μ=8.5 seconds; Ha:μ>8.5 seconds

α=0.04 (significance level)

z0=0.61

p=0.2709

Select the correct answer below:

  • Do not reject the null hypothesis because 0.61>0.04.
  • Reject the null hypothesis because the value of z is positive.
  • Reject the null hypothesis because 0.61>0.04.
  • Reject the null hypothesis because the p-value 0.2709 is greater than the significance level α=0.04.
  • Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value 0.2709 is greater than the significance level α=0.04.

Question

Jacqueline, a golfer, has a sample driving distance mean of 202.0 yards from 12 drives. Jacqueline still claims that her average driving distance is 223 yards, and the low average can be attributed to chance.

Question

Marty, a typist, claims that his average typing speed is 72 words per minute. During a practice session, Marty has a sample typing speed mean of 84 words per minute based on 12 trials. At the 5% significance level, does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that his mean typing speed is greater than 72 words per minute?

  • Do not reject the null hypothesis because the value of z is positive.
  • Reject the null hypothesis because 2.75>0.05.
  • Reject the null hypothesis because the p-value 0.018 is less than the significance level α=0.05.
  • Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value 0.018 is less than the significance level α=0.05.

Activity 9

Question

Kurtis is a statistician who claims that the average salary of an employee in the city of Yarmouth is no more than $55,000 per year. Gina, his colleague, believes this to be incorrect, so she randomly selects 61 employees who work in Yarmouth and record their annual salary. Gina calculates the sample mean income to be $56,500 per year with a sample standard deviation of 3,750. Using the alternative hypothesis Ha:μ>55,000, find the test statistic t and the p-value for the appropriate hypothesis test. Round the test statistic to two decimal places and the p-value to three decimal places.
