QUESTION 11
Math SAT Question 2
The scores of men on the math SAT follow a Normal distribution; so
do those of women. Let µ1 (respectively, µ2) denote the average
math SAT score of men (respectively, women).
A random sample of 20 men was selected. The average math SAT score
of the men selected was 607.8 with a standard deviation of
48.76.
Another random sample of 23 women was selected (independently of
the sample of men). The average math SAT...

For all U.S. students nationally who take the SAT, SAT Math
scores are normally distributed with an average score of 500 for
all U.S. students and a population standard deviation of 125. A
random sample of 100 students entering Whitmer College had an
average SAT Math (SAT-M) score of 530.
The sample data can be used to test the claim that
the mean SAT-M score of all Whitmer College students is different
than the national mean SAT-M score.

A random sample of 64 second-graders in a certain school
district are given a standardized mathematics skills test.
The sample mean score is 51.21. Assume the
standard deviation for the population of test scores is 15. The
nationwide average score on this test is 50. The school
superintendent wants to know whether the second-graders in her
school district have greater math skills than the nationwide
average. Perform the hypothesis test and compute the p-value. Round
to four decimal places.

Estimating Mean SAT Math Score
The SAT is the most widely used college admission exam. (Most
community colleges do not require students to take this exam.) The
mean SAT math score varies by state and by year, so the value of µ
depends on the state and the year. But let’s assume that the shape
and spread of the distribution of individual SAT math scores in
each state is the same each year. More specifically, assume that
individual SAT math...
