Chapter 8: Q20 (page 407)

Finding Critical Values of蠂2Repeat Exercise 19 using this approximation (with k and z as described in Exercise 19):

蠂2=k1-29k+z29k3

Short Answer

Expert verified

The estimated critical value is equal to 82.360. The value obtained is approximately equal to the value obtained using technology (82.292).

Step by step solution

01

Given information

A sample of the number of words spoken in a day is considered.

The sample size is equal to 56. The value of the degrees of freedom is equal to 55.

The value of the z-score is equal to 2.33. The actual critical value of is equal to 82.292.

02

Compute the approximate critical value 

The approximate critical value has the following formula:

.蠂2=k1-29k+z29k3

The values are given as follows.

  • k is equal to 55.
  • The z-score is equal to 2.33.

Substitute the above values in the formula to obtain the critical value, as shown.

蠂2=551-29脳55+2.33脳29脳553鈮�82.360

Thus, the critical value is equal to 82.360.

03

Comparison

The critical value of 蠂2obtained using the formula (82.360) is approximately equal to the critical value of 蠂2 obtained using technology (82.292).

Final Conclusions. In Exercises 25鈥�28, use a significance level of 伪 = 0.05 and use the given information for the following:

a. State a conclusion about the null hypothesis. (Reject H0or fail to reject H0.)

b. Without using technical terms or symbols, state a final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Original claim: The standard deviation of pulse rates of adult males is more than 11 bpm. The hypothesis test results in a P-value of 0.3045.

Testing Hypotheses. In Exercises 13鈥�24, assume that a simple random sample has been selected and test the given claim. Unless specified by your instructor, use either the P-value method or the critical value method for testing hypotheses. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value (or range of P-values), or critical value(s), and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Speed Dating Data Set 18 鈥淪peed Dating鈥� in Appendix B includes 鈥渁ttractive鈥� ratings of male dates made by the female dates. The summary statistics are n = 199, x = 6.19, s = 1.99. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the population mean of such ratings is less than 7.00.

Testing Hypotheses. In Exercises 13鈥�24, assume that a simple random sample has been and test the given claim. Unless specified by your instructor, use either the P-value method or the critical value method for testing hypotheses. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value (or range of P-values), or critical value(s), and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Course Evaluations Data Set 17 鈥淐ourse Evaluations鈥� in Appendix B includes data from student evaluations of courses. The summary statistics are n = 93, x = 3.91, s = 0.53. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the population of student course evaluations has a mean equal to 4.00.

Technology. In Exercises 9鈥�12, test the given claim by using the display provided from technology. Use a 0.05 significance level. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value (or range of P-values), or critical value(s), and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Airport Data Speeds Data Set 32 鈥淎irport Data Speeds鈥� in Appendix B includes Sprint data speeds (mbps). The accompanying TI-83/84 Plus display results from using those data to test the claim that they are from a population having a mean less than 4.00 Mbps. Conduct the hypothesis test using these results.

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.

Tennis Instant Replay The Hawk-Eye electronic system is used in tennis for displaying an instant replay that shows whether a ball is in bounds or out of bounds so players can challenge calls made by referees. In a recent U.S. Open, singles players made 879 challenges and 231 of them were successful, with the call overturned. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that fewer than 1/ 3 of the challenges are successful. What do the results suggest about the ability of players to see calls better than referees?
