Identify the following problem if it is z-test or t-test.

1. The leader of the association of jeepney drivers claims that the average daily take home pay of all jeepney
drivers in Pasay City is P400. A random sample of 100 jeepney drivers in Pasay City was interviewed and the
average daily take home pay of all jeepney drivers is found to be P425. Use a 0.05 significance level to find out
if the average daily take home pay of all jeepney drivers in Pasay City is different from P400. Assume that the
population standard deviation is P92.

2. According to a study done last year, the average monthly expenses for cell phone loads of high school
students in Manila was P350. A Statistics student believes that this amount has increased since January this
year. Is there a reason to believe that this amount has really increased if a random sample of 60 students has
an average monthly expenses for cell phone loads of P380? Use a 0.05 level of significance. Assume that the
population standard is P77.

3. The Head of the Math Department announced that the mean score of Grade 9 students in the first periodic
examination in Mathematics was 89 and the standard deviation was 12. One student who believed that the
mean score was less than this, randomly selected 34 students and computed their mean score. She obtained
a mean score of 85. At 0.01 level of significance, test the student’s belief?

4. It was announced over the radio that the average price of a kilogram of pork liempo in Metro Manila is P195.
However, a sample of 15 prices randomly collected from different markets in Metro Manila showed an average
of P200 and a standard deviation of P9.50. Using a 0.05 level of significance, is there sufficient evidence to
conclude that the average price of pork liempo in metro Manila is more than P195? Normality is assumed over
the population.

5. The owner of a factory that sells a particular bottled fruit juice claims that the average capacity of their
product is 250 ml. To test the claim, a consumer group gets a sample of 100 such bottles, calculates the
capacity of each bottle, and then finds the mean capacity decreased to 248 ml. The standard deviation is 5 ml.
Using 99% confidence, is the claim true?

Solve the following. (Indicate the steps.)

1. A printer manufacturing claims that its new ink-efficient printer can print an average of 1500 pages
of world documents with standard deviation of 60. Thirty-five (35) of these printers showed a mean of
1475 pages. Does this support the company’s claim? Use 95% confidence level.

2. Blood glucose levels for obese teenagers have a mean of 120.A researcher thinks that a diet high
in raw cornstarch will have a positive or negative effect on blood levels. A sample of 25 patients who
have tried the raw cornstarch diet has a mean glucose level of 135 with s standard deviation of 38.
Test the hypothesis at 0.10 that the raw cornstarch had an effect.
