For the next two questions, let the null and alternative hypotheses be LaTeX: H_0H 0: LaTeX: \mu=\:8μ = 8 and LaTeX: H_aH a : LaTeX: \mu>8μ > 8. Assume that the population standard deviation LaTeX: \sigmaσ is not known. Becca collects a sample of size LaTeX: n=9n = 9 and computes LaTeX: \overline{x}=11x ¯ = 11 and LaTeX: s=6s = 6. Is LaTeX: \sigmaσ known?

If we compare the p value and the significance level assumed we see that so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to fail reject the null hypothesis, we can conclude that the mean is higher than 8 at 5% of signficance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

represent the mean height for the sample  

represent the sample standard deviation for the sample  

sample size  

represent the value that we want to test

represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.   (assumed)

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is higher than 8, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:  

Alternative hypothesis:  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

 (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

Since is a one side upper test the p value would be:  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level assumed we see that so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to fail reject the null hypothesis, we can conclude that the mean is higher than 8 at 5% of signficance.  

“ a line segment that has the endpoints on the circle and passes through the midpoint is called the diameter. the diameter is twice the size of the radius. a line segment that has its endpoints on the circular border but does not pass through the midpoint is called a chord. a circle is the same as 360 small circle up the number 0 . i hope this .
