Question 1
On the basis of a sample of size 45, the mean hours freshmen spent on gymnasium per week was calculated to be 3.5 hours and standard deviation of s = 1.2 hours. A researcher wants to test H 0:μ = 4.1 hours against H a: μ < 4.1 hours at 5% significance level.

A past study claimed that adults in America spent an average of 18 hours a week on leisure activities. A researcher wanted to test this claim. She took a sample of 10 adults and asked them about the time they spend per week on leisure activities. Their responses (in hours) are as follows. 12.0 13.3 22.6 22.9 22.5 33.1 16 17.2 20.1 20.3 Assume that the times spent on leisure activities by all adults are normally distributed. Using the 5%...
A researcher wished to compare the average amount of time spent in extracurricular activities by high school students in a suburban school district with that in a school district of a large city. The researcher obtained a simple random sample of 60 high school students in a large suburban school district and found the mean time spent in extracurricular activities per week to be 6 hours with a standard deviation of 3 hours. The researcher also obtained an independent simple...
Previously, an organization reported that teenagers spent 4.5 hours per week, onaverage, on the phone. The organization thinks that, currently, the mean is 4.5.Ten randomly chosen teenagers were asked how many hours per week theyspend on the phone. The level of significance is 0.05. The sample of teenagers’ time is: 3.0, 4.25, 5.5, 3.5, 7.0, 6.3, 2.0, 4.5, 3.7, 3.6 Population mean: Sample mean: Sample standard deviation: Level of significance: Sample size: Alternative hypothesis: (Ha) Test statistics: P-value: What is...
Previously, an organization reported that teenagers spent 4.5 hours per week, onaverage, on the phone. The organization thinks that, currently, the mean isgreater than 4.5. Ten randomly chosen teenagers were asked how many hoursper week they spend on the phone. The level of significance is 0.05.

A sample mean, sample size, and population standard deviation are given. Use the one-mean z-test to perform the required hypothesis test at the given significance level. Use the P-value approach. x̄ = 259, n = 15, σ = 19, H 0: μ = 250, Ha : μ > 250, α = 0.01
50 parents completed a survey on minutes spent per week reading with their children. The mean amount of time spent reading per week was 120 minutes and the variance in the sample was 25. What was the standard deviation of this sample? 4 12.5 5 25 When calculating variance, we square the difference between each data point and the mean in a set of numbers. Why do we do this? Group of answer choices The deviation scores will sum to...
QUESTION 2 Previously, an organization reported that teenagers spent 4.5 hours per week, on average, on the phone. The organization thinks that, currently, the mean is higher. Fifteen randomly chosen teenagers were asked how many hours per week they spend on the phone. The sample mean was 4.75 hours with a sample standard deviation of 2 hours. Assume that hours per week they spend on the phone are normally distributed. At a significance level of 5%, test the claim of...
Question 6 (1 point) A survey among freshmen at a certain university revealed that the number of hours spent studying the week before final exams was normally distributed with mean 25 and standard deviation 7 What is the probability that a randomly selected student spent between 26 and 40 hours studying? Write only a number as your answer. Round to 4 decimal places (for example 0.0048). Do not write as a percentage. Your Answer: Answer Question 7 (1.2 points) The...
