Ha*μ1<μ2

Short Answer

Expert verified

Since the value of the test statistic is fall in the rejection region. Thus, the null hypothesis is rejected.

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

The hypothesis is

H0:μ1=μ2,Ha:μ1<μ2

and the level of significance is0.1.

02

Explanation

Let's compute the sample mean as follow

d¯=∑dn

=-219

=-2.333.

Compute the value of standard deviation:

sd=∑di2-∑di2nn-1

=121-(-21)299-1=3

The test statistics are,

t=d¯sdn

Substitute the given values in the above equation.

t=-2.33399=-2.333

The value of degree of freedom is,

dof=n-1=9-1=8

The critical value for the level of significance of 0.1 is -1.397.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons publishes data in Prison Statistics on the times served by prisoners released from federal institutions for the first time. Independent random samples of released prisoners in the fraud and firearms offense categories yielded the following information on time served, in months.

At the 5% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the meantime served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses? (Note: x¯1=10.12,s1=4.90,x¯2=18.78, and s2=4.64.)

Wing Length. D. Cristol al. published results of their studies of two subspecies of dark-eyed juncos in the article "Migratory Dark-Eyed Juncos, Junes Hyemalix, Have Better Spatial Memory and Denser Hippocampal Neurons than Nommigrtory Conspecifics" Animal behavior, Vol, 66, pp. 317-328). One of the subspecies migrates each year, and the other does not migrate. Several

physical characteristics of 14 binds of each subspecies were measured, one of which was wing length. The following data, based on results obtained by the researchers, provide the wing lengths, in millimeters (mm) for the samples of two subpecies.:

The intent is to employ the sample data to perform a hypothesis test to compare the means of the two populations from which the data were obtained. In each case, decide which of the procedures should be applied.

Data on household vehicle miles of travel (VMT) are compiled annually by the Federal Highway Administration and are published in the National Household Travel Survey, Summary of Travel Trends. Independent random samples of 15midwestern households and 14southern households provided the following data on last year's VMT, in thousands of miles.

At the 5%significance level, does there appear to be a difference in last year's mean VMT for midwestern and southern households? (Note: x¯1=16.23,s1=4.06,x¯2=17.69, and s2=4.42.)
