Ali and Karim intend to investigate the average weight
of LIU female students. They claim that the average weight of LIU
female students is 65 kg. After collecting the necessary data (Ali
selected a larger random sample than that selected by Karim) and
performing the needed tests,
the following debate arised between them
Ali: At the 2% significance level, we can conclude that the average
weight of LIU female students is 65 kg.
Karim: But we may not conclude that the average weight of LIU
female students is 65 kg at the 6% significance level. a. State the
null and the alternate hypotheses.
b. State the decision rule using p value.
c. Give an expectation of p value such that the claim is not
rejected at the 2% but it is
rejected at the 6%.

CUNY advertises that
the average class size is 35 students or less, with a standard
deviation of 8 students. QCC SGA is concerned that budget cuts have
led to increased class sized and would like to test this claim. A
random sample of 38 classes was selected, and the average class
size was found to be 36.9 students. Using a level of significance
of 0.05, can QCC SGA conclude that the average class is greater
than 35 students?

Please answer both!!
Suppose the national average dollar amount for an
automobile insurance claim is $805.66. You work for an agency in
Michigan and you are interested in whether or not the state average
is less than the national average. The hypotheses for this scenario
are as follows: Null Hypothesis: μ ≥ 805.66, Alternative
Hypothesis: μ < 805.66. You take a random sample of claims and
calculate a p-value of 0.02 based on the data, what is the
appropriate conclusion?...

A nutrition expert claims that the average American is
overweight. To test his claim, a random sample of 22 Americans was
selected, and the difference between each person's actual weight
and idea weight was calculated. For this data, we have
x¯=18.2x¯=18.2 and s=29.4s=29.4. Is there sufficient evidence to
conclude that the expert's claim is true? Carry out a hypothesis
test at a 4% significance level.

A recent national survey found that high school students watched
an average (mean) of 7.6 DVDs per month with a population standard
deviation of 0.5 hours. The distribution of times follows the
normal distribution. A random sample of 61 college students
revealed that the mean number of DVDs watched last month was 7.0.
At the 0.01 significance level, can we conclude that college
students watch fewer DVDs a month than high school students? Use α
= 0.01. a. State the...
