A student group claims that first year students at a university must study 2.5 hours per night during the
school week. A skeptic suspect that they study less than that on average. A class survey finds that the
average study time claimed by 269 students is 137 minutes. Regard these students as a random sample
of all first-year students and suppose we know that study times follow a Normal distribution with
standard deviation of 65 minutes. Is there evidence that the mean study time differs from 2.5 hours? Use α=0.05

Hypothesis testing: A student group claims that first-year students at a university must study 2.25 hours per night during the school week. A skeptic suspects that they study less than that on average. A class survey finds the study time claimed by 259 students is 147 minutes. Regard these students as a random sample of all 1st year students and suppose what study times follow a Normal Distribution with a population standard deviation 62 minutes. Test to see if the...

The student academic group on a college campus claims that freshman students study at least 2.5 hours per day, on average. One Introduction to Statistics class was skeptical. The class took a random sample of 30 freshman students and found a mean study time of 137 minutes with a standard deviation of 45 minutes. If α = 0.01 (or 99% confidence level), is the student academic group’s claim correct?

6. A university student claims that on average, full-time students study more than 30 hours per week. A statistics class conducts a study to test the claim. The students randomly sample 15 students and find ?=32.4 hours and ?=4.2 hours. a) State the null and alternative hypotheses. b) Determine the outcome of the student’s test at the: i) At the 5% significance level. (∝=0.05) ii) At the 1% significance level. ∝=0.01

Do students study less than 150 minutes (2.5 hours), on average, each week? A survey of 51 randomly selected students finds that on average students study 138 minutes per night with a standard deviation of 32 minutes. A hypothesis test based on this data produces a test statistic of -2.68 and a p-value of 0.005. What are the appropriate decision and conclusion at the 5% significance level? Select one or more: Reject the null hypothesis. Do not reject the null...
