1.)
a.) Given:
H0: µ ≤ 9.6 hours
Ha: µ > 9.6 hours (Claim)
µ = 9.6 hours
9+9+ 9.7+10+11+ 9.5+8+10+ 10.5+11+11.5+ 12+ 9+9.5+10+ 12
. x= =10.11hours
16
α = 0.05
n = 16
d.f = 16 – 1 = 15
s=

√ ( 9−10.11 )2+ ( 9−10.11 )2+ ( 9.7−10.11 )2+ ( 10−10.11 )2+ ( 11−10.11 )2+ ( 9.5−10.11 )2+ ( 8−10.11 )2+ ( 10−10.1

= 1.15
16

Solution:
t0 = 1.753
10.11−9.6
t= =1.77
1.15/√ 16 t = 1.77

t0 = 1.753
Because the test statistic falls into the
rejection region, H0 is rejected

Answer:
At a 5% level of significance, there is enough evidence to support the claim that
the mean number of hours studied at your school is higher than 9.6 hours.

b.) The Type I error for my test is if the null hypothesis of the student’s study time
being less than or equal to 9.6 hours is true, but it was rejected
c.) The Type II error for my test is if the null hypothesis of the student’s study
time being less than or equal to 9.6 hours is false, but it was not rejected.
2.)
Given:
 H0: µ ≥ 10.73 hours
Ha: µ < 10.73 hours (Claim)
µ = 10.73 hours

355.5
. x= =8.89 hours
40
α = 0.05
n = 40
s = 1.21
P-Value
<.0002
Solution:

8.89−10.73
z= =¿-9.62
1.21/√ 40
-9.62
if z < -3, P-Value < .0002 Because P-Value < .0002 <.05, H0 is rejected
P-Value < .0002 < .05
Answer:
At a 5% level of significance, there is enough evidence that the population mean
waiting time to checkout is less than 10.73 minutes.
3.)
Given:
np=(843)(.50)= 421.5
nq=(843)(.50)= 421.5
H0: = .5
Ha: p ≠ .5 (Claim)
p = 50% / .5
432
p̂ = =¿51% / .51
432+ 411
q = 50% / .50
n = 843
a = 0.05

Solution:
.51−.5
z= =0.58
√( .5 )( .50 ) /843 z = 0.58
-z0 = -1.96
z0 = 1.96

Because the test statistic does not fall into

the rejection region, H0 is not rejected
 -Z0 = -1.96 Z0 = 1.96

Answer:
At a 5% level of significance, there is not enough evidence to support the claim of
the Financial Express’ poll that the percentage of people who trust energy-
efficiency ratings differ from 50%.

4.)
Given:
H0: σ ≥ .03 inches
Ha: σ < .03 inches (Claim)
n = 10
df = 10-1 = 9
s = .029
σ = .03
a = .05

Solution:

X20 = 3.325 X2 = 8.41

( 10−1 ) (.029)2
X2 = 2
=8.41
.03

X20 = 3.325

Answer:
At a 5% level of significance, there is not enough evidence to prove that the
population standard deviation is less than 0.03 inch in the new process.
