Video Games: Checking Requirements Twelve different video games showing alcohol use were observed. The duration times of alcohol use were recorded, with the times (seconds) listed below (based on data from 鈥渃ontent and rating of Teen-Rated Video Games,鈥 by Haninger and Thompson, journal of the American Medical Association, Vol.291, No.7). What requirements must be satisfied to test the claim that the sample is from a population with a mean greater than 90 sec? Are the requirements all satisfied?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The requirements for the given data are the sample should be selected randomly, and the data should be normally distributed (or sample size must be larger than 30).

All the requirements do not satisfy.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The duration times of alcohol use for 12 different video games were recorded. The population mean \(\left( \mu \right) = 90{\rm{sec}}{\rm{.}}\)

02

State the hypotheses

For the true mean value\(\mu \), the hypothesis is stated as follows:

\(\begin{array}{l}{H_0}:\mu = 90\;({\rm{null}}\;{\rm{hypothesis}})\\{H_1}:\mu > 90\;({\rm{alternative}}\;{\rm{hypothesis}}\;{\rm{and}}\;{\rm{original}}\;{\rm{claim}})\end{array}\)

03

State the requirements

The following requirements need to be verified for conducting the test:

  1. The given sample is selected randomly from the population.
  2. The sample size is either larger than 30 or the population is distributed normally.
04

Check the requirements

The normal Q-Q plot is sketched using the following steps:

  1. Draw two axes, horizontal and vertical.
  2. Mark z-scores corresponding to the observations on the change by means of scaling the axes.
  3. Thus, the relevant graph along with a tentative line is shown below.

The points arenot close to the straight line; they deviate. Hence, this is not normally distributed.

Also, the sample is not specified to be selected by random selection.

Thus, the requirements are not satisfied.

Testing Claims About Proportions. In Exercises 9鈥32, test the given claim. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, or critical value(s), then state the conclusion about the null hypothesis, as well as the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use the P-value method unless your instructor specifies otherwise. Use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution, as described in Part 1 of this section.

Births A random sample of 860 births in New York State included 426 boys. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that 51.2% of newborn babies are boys. Do the results support the belief that 51.2% of newborn babies are boys?

In Exercises 13鈥16, refer to the exercise identified and find the value of the test statistic. (Refer to Table 8-2 on page 362 to select the correct expression for evaluating the test statistic.)

Exercise 6 鈥淐ell Phone鈥

In Exercises 9鈥12, refer to the exercise identified. Make subjective estimates to decide whether results are significantly low or significantly high, then state a conclusion about the original claim. For example, if the claim is that a coin favours heads and sample results consist of 11 heads in 20 flips, conclude that there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the coin favours heads (because it is easy to get 11 heads in 20 flips by chance with a fair coin).

Exercise 8 鈥淧ulse Rates鈥

Using Technology. In Exercises 5鈥8, identify the indicated values or interpret the given display. Use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution, as described in Part 1 of this section. Use = 0.05 significance level and answer the following:

a. Is the test two-tailed, left-tailed, or right-tailed?

b. What is the test statistic?

c. What is the P-value?

d. What is the null hypothesis, and what do you conclude about it?

e. What is the final conclusion?

Self-Driving Vehicles In a TE Connectivity survey of 1000 adults, 29% said that they would feel comfortable in a self-driving vehicle. The accompanying StatCrunch display results from testing the claim that more than 1/4 of adults feel comfortable in a self-driving vehicle.

Hypothesis Test with Known How do the results from Exercise 13 鈥淐ourse Evaluations鈥 change if is known to be 0.53? Does the knowledge of have much of an effect?
