A professor believes the students in a statistics class this term are more creative than most other students attending the unive

rsity. A previous study found that students at the university had a mean score of 35 on a standard creativity test, and the current class has an average score of 40 on this scale with an estimated population standard deviation of 7. The standard deviation of the distribution of means is 1.63. What is the t score?
A. (40 – 35) / 7 = 0.71

B. (40 – 35) / 1.63 = 3.07

C. (40 – 35) / 7² = 5 / 49 = 0.10

D. (40 – 35) / 1.63² = 5 / 2.66 = 1.88

Answer:

Correct option: B

Step-by-step explanation:

The professor can perform a One-mean <em>t</em>-test to determine whether the average score of the students in his class is more than the average score of all the students attending university.

A <em>t</em>-test will be used instead of the <em>z</em>-test because the population standard deviation is not provided instead it is estimated by the sample standard deviation.

The hypothesis for this test can be defined as follows:

<em>H₀</em>: The average score of the students in his class is not more then the entire university, i.e. <em>μ ≤ 35</em>.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The average score of the students in his class is more then the entire university, i.e. <em>μ > 35</em>.

Given:

\bar x=40\\SE_{\bar x}=1.63

The test statistic is:

t=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{SE_{\bar x}}=\frac{40-35}{1.63}=3.0674\approx3.07

Thus, the correct option is (B).

ecn 221 The sodium content of a popular sports drink is listed as 206 mg in a 32-oz bottle. Analysis of 14 bottles indicates a s
spayn [35]

Answer:

H_{0}: \mu = 206\text{ mg}\\H_A: \mu \neq 206\text{ mg}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ =  206 mg

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 217.5 mg

Sample size, n = 14

Sample standard deviation, s = 14.9 mg

Claim:

The mean sodium content for the sports drink is not 206 mg. It is different than 206 mg.

Thus, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 206\text{ mg}\\H_A: \mu \neq 206\text{ mg}

We use two-tailed t test to perform this hypothesis.
