Answer #1

Level of significance = = 0.09

The hypothesis is a right tail test.

We have to find a critical z value.

By using a z table we can find it easily.

1 - = 1 - 0.09 = 0.91

Search 0.91 or near value in the body of the z table.

In the body of the table, the value of 0.9099 is the nearest value then see the corresponding row and column.

We get the critical value 1.34.

So the critical z value = 1.34

In this problem, assume that the distribution of differences is approximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value by a small amount and therefore produce a slightly more "conservative" answer.

A claim is made that the average salary for all jobs in Minnesota is greater than $70,500. You are going to test the claim using α=0.05 and assume that your data is normally distributed and the population standard deviation (σ) is not known. a. Write the null and alternative hypotheses symbolically and identify which hypothesis is the claim. Then identify if the test is left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed and explain why. b. Identify and explain which test statistic you will...

Sample statistics: = 16, sx= 0.75, n= 10. 1. For the given data, find the test statistic t-test=4.22 t-test=0.42 t-test=0.75 z-test=8.44 z-test=7.5 2. Decide whether the test statistic is in the rejection region and whether you should reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. the test statistic is in the rejection region, reject the...
