Explanation of Solution
Null hypothesis (H0) is
The Z table value can be calculated as follows:
The Z table value is 1.645.
The estimated p1 value can be calculated as follows:
The estimated p2 value can be calculated as follows:
The estimated total pvalue can be calculated as follows:
The calculated Z value (z) can be calculated as follows:
The Z value is 2.5.
The p value (p) can be calculated as follows:
The p value is 0.0062. Since the p value is nearlyequal to 0, the alternate hypothesis is accepted.

Explanation of Solution
Null hypothesis (H0) is
The Z table value can be calculated as follows:
The Z table value is 1.96.
The estimated p1 value can be calculated as follows:
The estimated p2 value can be calculated as follows:
The estimated total pvalue can be calculated as follows:
The calculated Z value (z) can be calculated as follows:
The Z value is -0.53.
The p value (p) can be calculated as follows:
The p value is 0.5962. Since the p value is significantly different from 0, the alternate hypothesis is not accepted.

- Average prices (in dollars) were recorded for three types of beverage across all 8 major Australian states and territories. In how many states/territories is the average price of a cappuccino higher than the average price of a flat white?arrow_forward18. Car and Taxi Ages When the author visited Dublin, Ireland (home of Guinness Breweryemployee William Gosset, who first developed the t distribution), he recorded the ages of randomlyselected passenger cars and randomly selected taxis. The ages can be found from thelicense plates. (There is no end to the fun of traveling with the author.) The ages (in years) arelisted below. We might expect that taxis would be newer, so test the claim that the mean age ofcars is greater than the mean age of taxis.arrow_forwardWhat is differance between three sector ecnomoy and four sector ecnomoyarrow_forward
- Textbook authors must be careful that the reading level of their book is appropriate for the target audience. Some methods of assessing reading level require estimating the average word length. We've randomly chosen 20 words from a randomly selected page in Intro Stats and counted the number of letters in each word: 5, 5, 2, 11, 3, 5, 6, 8, 5, 4, 7, 2, 9, 4, 8, 10, 4, 7, 6, 9 Suppose that our editor was hoping that the book would have a mean word length of 6.8 letters. Does this sample indicate that the authors failed to meet this goal? With a significance level of 0.05, test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion. (i.e state the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses, calculate the test statistic, conclude and interpret it).arrow_forwardRainbow Harbor Cruises charges $16/adult and $8/child for a round-trip ticket.

- 2. Based on past records, it is generally believed that on an average, a typical University of Technology and Applied Sciences, Nizwa student spends about 25 hours in the LRC per week. Recently, the library has been shifted to a new location which is further away from the academic block. As a result, the administration feels that students may be spending less time in the library. Accordingly a random sample of 41 students were selected and the average number of hours they spend in the library came out to be 16.78 with a standard deviation of 5.17. Carry out an appropriate test of hypotheses for the above problem to test whether the shifting of the library has adversely impacted the study time in the population of all students. (You may assume that study times/week approximately follow a normal distribution in the population).arrow_forwarda) For each, find the expressions for marginal utilities and the marginal rate of substitution, and determine whether monotonicity and convexity are met.arrow_forwardThe measurement of the number of people who are willing to work, capable of working, and who have jobs that fit their skills is called:arrow_forward
