The exams in a large accounting class are scaled after grading so that the mean score is 75. A teaching assistant is concerned that his students may have a lower mean test score than the class as a whole. His students can be considered a sample from the population of all students he might teach so he compares their mean score with 75. Define H0 and HA for this scenario.
(a) HA: µ < 75 H0: µ ≥ 75 (b) HA: µ ≤ 75 H0: µ > 75 (c) HA: µ 6= 75 H0: µ = 75 (d) HA: µ = 75 H0: µ 6= 75 (e) HA: µ > 75 H0: µ ≤ 75

QUESTION 3 An instructor of an extremely large class (1000 students) starts grading an exam. After grading 100 of the assignments he calculates the sample average as 80 with a standard deviation of 10, He then correctly determines that he can 95% confident that the average student score is between 78.04 and 81.96. He continues grading, and after grading a total of 400 exams the sample average is 80 with a sample deviation of 20. How confident is he that...
For each of the following situations, give the degrees of freedom for the group (DFG), for error (DFE), and for the total (DFT). State the null and alternative hypotheses, H0 and Ha, and give the numerator and denominator degrees of freedom for the F statistic. (a) A poultry farmer is interested in reducing the cholesterol level in his marketable eggs. He wants to compare two different cholesterol-lowering drugs added to the hen's standard diet as well as an all-vegetarian diet....

You receive a brochure from a large university. The brochure indicates that the mean class size for full-time faculty is fewer than 32 students. You want to test this claim. You randomly select 18 classes taught by full-time faculty and determine the dass size of each. The results are shown in the table below. At a=0.01, can you support the university's claim? Complete parts (a) through (d) below. Assume the population is normally distributed 37 31 30 33 31 38...
Assignment 3: Hypothesis Testing for the Population
Mean
The purpose of this activity is to give you guided practice in
going through the process of a t-test for the population mean, and
teach you how to carry out this test using statistical
software.
Background:
A group of 75 college students from a certain liberal arts
college were randomly sampled and asked about the number of
alcoholic drinks they have in a typical week. The file containing
the data is linked...
1. We reject the null hypothesis only when: a. our sample mean is larger than the population mean. b. the p value associated with our test statistic is greater than the significance level of the test we have chosen. c. our sample mean is smaller than the population mean. d. the p value associated with our test statistic is smaller than the significance level of the test we have chosen. 2. In a study of simulated juror decision making, researchers...
