It is widely accepted that the overall population has a mean
I.Q. score of 100 with a standard deviation of 15 that is normally
distributed. A researcher wants to find out if incoming college
freshman that have identified as being math majors have a higher
I.Q. than the overall population. The scores below are a random
sample of the I.Q. scores for incoming freshman that have
identified as math majors. Use this sample to test the claim that
incoming freshman who identify as math majors have a mean I.Q.
score greater than 100 using α = 0.05.

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...

A certain IQ test is known to have a population mean of 100 and
standard deviation of 15 in the general population. You want to
test whether psychology majors have a different average IQ than the
population as a whole. Assume the variance of IQ is the same for
Psych majors as it is in the general population.
Suppose that Psychology majors actually have an average IQ of
108. If you do a 2-tailed test at α= .05 with a...
