Identify the null hypothesis H 0 and the alternative hypothesis H 1. A. H 0 : p < 0.62, H 1 : p 0.62 B. H 0 : p = 0.62, H 1 : p = 0.62 C. H 0 : p = 0.62, H 1 : p = 0.62 D. H 0 : p 0.62, H 1 : p < 0.62

Using α = 0.05 for a left-tailed test, find the critical z value used to test the null hypothesis. A. –1.645 B. +/–1.96 C. +/–1.645 D. –1.96

6 Slide 8- 6 Copyright © 2010, 2007, 2004 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Carter Motor Company claims that its new sedan, the Libra, will average better than 30 miles per gallon in the city. Identify the type I error of the test. A. The error of failing to reject the hypothesis that the mean is 30 miles per gallon when it is actually greater than 30 miles per gallon. B. The error of rejecting the hypothesis that the mean is 30 miles per gallon when it really is 30 miles per gallon. C. The error of rejecting the hypothesis that the mean is more than 30 miles per gallon when it really is more than 30 miles per gallon.

Determine whether the hypothesis test involves a sampling distribution of means that is a normal distribution, Student t distribution or neither. The sample data appear to come from a normally distributed population with σ = 28. Claim: μ = 977. Sample data: n = 25, x = 984, s = 25. A. Student t B. Neither C. Normal
