Finding P-values. In Exercises 5鈥8, either use technology to find the P-value or use Table A-3 to find a range of values for the P-value.

Airport Data Speeds: The claim that for Verizon data speeds at airports, the mean. The sample size is and the test statistic is

t =-1.625 .

Short Answer

Expert verified

The p-value lies between 0.10 and 0.20.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The claim states that the mean of data speeds is =14.00mbps.

The sample size is n=13with the test statistic t=-1.625.

02

State the hypotheses

As per the claim, the hypotheses are stated as follows.

H0:=14(nullhypothesis)H1:14(alternativehypothesisandoriginalclaim)

Hence,it is a two-tailed test.

03

Compute the degrees of freedom 

The degrees of freedom for the given set of data are as follows.

df=n-1=13-1=12

04

Computing p-value using Table A-3

The test is a two-tailed with 12 degrees of freedom and test statistic value of

-1.625.

In Table A-3, check for the value 1.625 in the row with 12 degrees of freedom to see test statistic. The value 1.625 lies between 1.356 and 1.782.

The corresponding two-tailed area indicates the P-value between 0.10 and 0.20.

Hence, this can be written as

Thus, the range of p-value is 0.10 and 0.20.

t Test Exercise 2 refers to a t test. What is the t test? Why is the letter t used? What is unrealistic about the z test methods in Part 2 of this section?

Test Statistics. 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 7 鈥淧ulse Rates鈥

Type I and Type II Errors. In Exercises 29鈥32, provide statements that identify the type I error and the type II error that correspond to the given claim. (Although conclusions are usually expressed in verbal form, the answers here can be expressed with statements that include symbolic expressions such as p = 0.1.).

The proportion of people who write with their left hand is equal to 0.1.

Finding Critical t Values When finding critical values, we often need significance levels other than those available in Table A-3. Some computer programs approximate critical t values by calculating t=dfeA2/df-1where df = n-1, e = 2.718, A=z8df+3/8df+1, and z is the critical z score. Use this approximation to find the critical t score for Exercise 12 鈥淭ornadoes,鈥 using a significance level of 0.05. Compare the results to the critical t score of 1.648 found from technology. Does this approximation appear to work reasonably well?

Type I and Type II Errors. In Exercises 29鈥32, provide statements that identify the type I error and the type II error that correspond to the given claim. (Although conclusions are usually expressed in verbal form, the answers here can be expressed with statements that include symbolic expressions such as p = 0.1.).

The proportion of adults who use the internet is greater than 0.87.
