(4pts) Sam is conducting a t test to see if the average study time of all NMSU students is more than 6 hours. 25 students are randomly selected, and the data is collected. After analyzing the data, the test statistic t = 1.78. If significance level is set to be 0.02, which of the following is correct?
A. Reject Ho, but have a chance to commit a type I error.
B. Reject Ho, but have a chance to commit a type II error.
C. Fail to reject Ho, but have a chance to commit a type I error.
D. Fail to reject Ho, but have a chance to commit a type II error.
Homework Answers
Here t-critical value at alpha = 0.02 with df = n-1 = 25 - 1 = 2
For one tailed t test is, t-critical = 2.1715
Here t < t-critical
Therefore, we fail to reject H0.
Option (D) is correct.

1.) An insurance company sets up a statistical test with a null hypothesis that the average time for processing a claim is 7 days and an alternative hypothesis that the average time for processing a claim is greater than 7 days. After completing the statistical test, it is concluded that the average time exceeds 7 days. However, it is eventually learned that the mean process time is really 7 days. What type of error occurred in the statistical test? a.)...

As we have seen, conducting a hypothesis test based on a sample of data is not a fail-safe endeavor. As managers we need to weigh the pros and cons of each type of error. The movie theater manager wants to test whether showing old classics changes the average satisfaction rating of his customers. The null hypothesis is that there is no change. Describe what the type I and type II errors would be in the context of this problem. Which...
