Week 5 Assignment 1



Chapter 10 Practice Problems

 

 

Complete the problems below from the textbook. You will need to use the "Baseball 2016 Data" and the "Lincolnville School District Bus Data" files for this assignment.

 

1.      Chapter 10 – Problem 8




      At the time she was hired as a server at the Grumney Family Restaurant, Beth Brigden was told, “You can average $80 a day in               tips.” Assume the population of daily tips  is normally distributed with a standard deviation of $9.95. Over the first 35 days she               was employed at the restaurant, the mean daily amount of her tips was $84.85. At the .01 significance level, can Ms. Brigden                 conclude  that her daily tips average more than $80?



2.      Chapter 10 – Problem 13



      The mean income per person in the United States is $50,000, and the distribution of incomes follows a normal distribution. A random sample of 10 residents of Wilm-ington, Delaware, had a mean of $60,000 with a standard deviation of $10,000. At the .05 level of significance, is that enough evidence to conclude that residents of Wilmington, Delaware, have more income than the national average? 



3.      Chapter 10 – Problem 53



      

    
Refer to the Baseball 2016 data, which report information on the 30 Major League
Baseball teams for the 2016 season.
A.) Conduct a test of hypothesis to determine whether the mean salary of the teams was
different from $100.0 million. Use the .05 significance level.
B.) Using a 5% significance level, conduct a test of hypothesis to determine whether the
mean attendance was more than 2,000,000 per team.



4.      Chapter 10 – Problem 54



Refer to the Lincolnville School District bus data.
A. Select the variable for the number of miles traveled last month. Conduct a hypothesis
test to determine whether the mean miles traveled last month equals 10,000. Use
the .01 significance level. Find the p-value and explain what it means.
B. A study of school bus fleets reports that the average per bus maintenance cost is
$4,000 per year. Using the maintenance cost variable, conduct a hypothesis test to
determine whether the mean maintenance cost for Lincolnville’s bus fleet is more
than $4,000 at the .05 significance level. Determine the p-value and report the
results.
