The average household income for a recent year was $30,000. five years earlier the average household income was $24,500. assume

sample sizes of 34 were used and the population standard deviation of both samples were $5928. at 5% level of significance is there enough evidence to believe that the average household income has increased?

Using hypothesis test, we conclude that there is evidence to believe that the average household income has increased.

According to the question,

The average household income for a recent year (x₁⁻) = $30,000

The average household income for a recent year (x₂⁻) = $24,500

sample sizes n₁ = n₂ = 34

standard deviation of both samples were $24,500. Thus, s₁ = s₂ = $5928.

Null hypothesis:  There is no evidence to believe that the average household income has increased.

H₀ : μ₁ ≤ μ₂

Alternative hypothesis:  There is evidence to believe that the average household income has increased.

H₁: μ₁ > μ₂  

To check hypothesis we have the formula

Standard error=  \sqrt{\frac{s_{1} ^{2} }{n_{1} } + \frac{s^{2} _{2} }{n_{2} }  }

= \sqrt{2067128.4706}

= 1437.7512

Thus, standard error is $1437.7512.

Formula for test statistic = [(x₁⁻ -  x₂⁻) - (μ₁ - μ₂)]/standard error

= [(30000 -  24500) - 0]/1437.7512

= 3.8254

The critical value of z at 5% level of significance is 1.6449.

Here, the calculated value is greater than the critical value so we reject H₀.

Hence using hypothesis test, we conclude that there is evidence to believe that the average household income has increased.

Answer:

Do you mean to round the number 653,500,653,500,653,500? Or do you mean to round the number 653,500? If so, for 653,500, the digit in the thousand's place is 5, so it's already rounded to the nearest thousands place.
