One study was conducted to determine whether the average age of a mobile phone is normally distributed with an estimated 5-year average population and a standard deviation of 1.4 years. If a random sample of 18 cellphones is taken. a. Determine the average age of mobile phones more than 5 years 6 months. b. Determine the average age of the mobile phone between 5.5 to 6 years.
A recent study found out that college students average about 7 hours of sleep per night. However, researchers at an urban college in a big city are interested in showing that their students sleep less than 7 hours on the average. The researchers conducted a simple random sample of n=100 students on campus. They found out that the students averaged 6.6 hours. The previous studies showed that the population standard deviation (s) of the nightly sleeps was...
A recent study at a local college claimed that the proportion, p, of students who commute more than fifteen miles to school is no more than 15%. If a random sample of 275 students at this college is selected, and it is found that 55 commute more than fifteen miles to school, can we reject the college's claim at the 0.1 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below Carry your intermediate computations to at...
1. A study is conducted among first year undergraduate students in a US College of Nursing. From a list of these students, every 10th student is selected for an interview. Which of the following sampling strategies is being used? a) Simple random sampling b) Systematic sampling c) Stratified random sampling d) Cluster sampling 2. A study is conducted among first year nursing students in a US College of Nursing. Students are first grouped according to the state in which they...
. An educator believes the average SAT scores among honors program students across the country exceeds 1250. A random sample of 16 honors program students is taken and the T score for that sample is found to be 1300. The sample standard deviation of scores (s) was calculated to be 160. Test the educator's claim at the 0.01 level of significance. (assume equatvarianees) (9 points)
A recent study at a local college claimed that the proportion, p. of students who commute more than fifteen miles to school is no more than 20%. If a random sample of 265 students at this college is selected, and it is found that 65 commute more than fifteen miles to school, can we reject the college's claim at the 0.1 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at...
A study was conducted to test whether marijuana use impacts your short-term memory. A simple random sample of college students that do NOT use marijuana was taken, and given a memory test in which they were shown items in a particular order then asked to recreate that ordering. A second simple random sample was taken of college students that use marijuana 4 - 7 days per week, and they were given the same memory test. A higher score on the...
A recent study at a local college claimed that the proportion, p, of students who commute more than fifteen miles to school is no more than 25%. If a random sample of 275 students at this college is selected, and it is found that 87 commute more than fifteen miles to school, can we reject the college's claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below Carry your intermediate computations to at...
1. State your conclusion to the hypothesis test. A certain academic program claims that their students graduate in less than 4 years on average. A random sample of 50 students is taken and the mean and standard deviation are found. The test statistic is calculated to be -1.69. Using a 5% significance level, the conclusion would be: a) there is sufficient sample evidence for the program’s claim to be considered correct. b) there is insufficient sample evidence for the program’s...
A recent study at a local college claimed that the proportion, p, of students who commute more than fifteen miles to school is no more than 25%. If a random sample of 255 students at this college is selected, and it is found that 70 commute more than fifteen miles to school, can we reject the college's claim at the 0.01 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at...
