Which would be correct hypotheses for this test?

Find the test statistic (2 decimal places): Give the P-value (4 decimal places, if less than 0.001 answer 0): Which is the correct result: Reject the Null Hypothesis O Do not Reject the Null Hypothesis Which would be the appropriate conclusion? There is not significant evidence to suggest that the average life of the tires is different than 149000 O There is significant evidence to suggest that the average life of the tires is different than 149000 miles

According to the CDC, the average weight of men in 1990 was 181 pounds. Consider a claim that the average weight of men increased by 2014. (https://abcnews.go.com/Health/average-weight-american-men-15-pounds-20-years/story?id=41100782) Use these hypotheses: H0:H0: μμ = 181(Population mean weight of men in 2014 is same as that in 1990) Ha:Ha: μμ > 181(Population mean weight of men in 2014 has increased) Based on sample data, you fail to reject the null hypothesis and compared to the unknown truth if your decision was wrong, then you would have made: Type I Error because H0H0 was incorrectly rejected. Type II Error because H0H0 was incorrectly not rejected. Based on sample data, you fail to reject the null hypothesis. Then your conclusion would be: The sample data support the claim that the average weight of men increased. There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the average weight of men increased.
A diet center wanted to test three different methods for losing weight to determine if the average weight loss (reported in pounds/week) for each method is the same. The results for the three methods are tabulated below. Given that there is a significant difference between the three methods, use the Tukey test to determine if there is a significant difference between each pair of methods. Let a=0.05.

The average height of 18-year-old American women is 64.2 inches. You wonder whether the mean height of this year's female graduates from your local high school is different from the national average. You measure an SRS of 78 female graduates and find that x⎯⎯⎯x¯ = 63.1 inches. What are your null and alternative hypotheses? Note: Type in "mu" as the substitute for μμ and "!=" for ≠≠. H0:Ha:

Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 6.4parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current mean ozone level is at an insufficient level. Set up the hypotheses to test the researcher's claim. State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.
STAT 3128 Homeowrk Section Question 1. Let u denote the true average radioactivity level (picocuries per liter). The value 5 pci/L is considered the dividing line between safe and unsafe water. Would you recommend testing Ho: μ = 5 versus Ha: > 5 or Ho μ = 5 versus Ha: μ 5. A type II error in this case involves deciding the water is safe when it isn't. This is a very serious error, so a test which ensures that this error is highly unlikely is desirable. We prefer that the most serious error be a type II error because it can be explicitly controlled. One should test Ho: μ = 5 versus Ha> 5. A type I error in this case involves deciding the water is safe when it isn't. This is a very serious error, so a test which ensures that this error is highly unlikely is desirable. We prefer that the most serious error be a type I error because it can be explicitly controlled.
A researcher noticed that today's adolescents seem to have higher rates of social anxiety than those of generations past. In 1990, the average level of social anxiety in adolescents was μ = 15.5. The researcher collects data by sampling 100 adolescent students from the tristate area and records their level of anxiety. Testing at an alpha level of a = .05, what will the researcher conclude about today's adolescents? a.) Step 1: State the Hypotheses H₂: H₁: b.) Step 2: Determine the critical region and draw it on the distribution above: df = c.) Step 3: Calculate the test statistic the sample mean is 16.5 and SS = 0.25 M= SM= tobs d.) Step 4: Make a decision. Circle one: Reject Null (Ho) or e.) State your conclusions about the research scenario in sentence form: tcritical = 72²= Fail to Reject Null (Ho) f.) Calculate an effect size in terms of the variance account for (2)? Do you characterize it as being small, medium or large?

To illustrate the effects of driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol, a police officer brought a DUI simulator to a local high school. Student reaction time in an emergency was measured with unimpaired vision and also while wearing a pair of special goggles to simulate the effects of alcohol on vision. For a random sample of nine teenagers, the time (in seconds) required to bring the vehicle to a stop from a speed of 60 miles per hour was recorded. Complete parts (a) and (b). Note: A normal probability plot and boxplot of the data indicate that the differences are approximately normally distributed with no outliers. Click the icon to view the data table. (a) Whether the student had unimpaired vision or wore goggles first was randomly selected. Why is this a good idea in designing the experiment? A. This is a good idea in designing the experiment because reaction times are different. B. This is a good idea in designing the experiment because it controls for any "learning" that may…
Sulfur compounds cause "off‑odors" in wine, so winemakers want to know the odor threshold, the lowest concentration of a compound that the human nose can detect. The odor threshold for dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in trained wine tasters is about 25 micrograms per liter of wine (?g/L ). The untrained noses of consumers may be less sensitive, however. The DMS odor thresholds for 10 untrained students are given. 30 30 42 35 22 33 31 29 19 23 (a) Assume that the standard deviation of the odor threshold for untrained noses is known to be ?=7?g/Lσ To access the complete data set, click the link for your preferred software format: Do the three simple conditions hold in this case? Make a stemplot and use it to check the shape of the distribution. (b) STATE: What is the average (mean) DMS odor threshold, ?μ , for all untrained people? PLAN: Using the four‑step process, give a 95%95% confidence interval for the mean DMS odor threshold among all students. SOLVE: We have assumed that we…
