According to a marketing research study, American teenagers watched 14.8 hours of social media posts per month last year, on ave

rage. A random sample of 11 American teenagers was surveyed and the mean amount of time per month each teenager watched social media posts was 15.6. This data has a sample standard deviation of 2.5. (Assume that the scores are normally distributed.) Researchers conduct a one-mean hypothesis at the 5% significance level to test if the mean amount of time American teenagers watch social media posts per month is greater than the mean amount of time last year. The null and alternative hypotheses are H0:μ=14.8; Ha:μ>14.8, which is a right-tailed test. Determine the test statistic, rounded to two decimal places.

Answer:

The value of test statistics is 1.06.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that according to a marketing research study, American teenagers watched 14.8 hours of social media posts per month last year, on average. A random sample of 11 American teenagers was surveyed and the mean amount of time per month each teenager watched social media posts was 15.6. This data has a sample standard deviation of 2.5.

We have to test if the mean amount of time American teenagers watch social media posts per month is greater than the mean amount of time last year or not.

Let, NULL HYPOTHESIS, H_0 : \mu = 14.8 hours  {means that the mean amount of time American teenagers watch social media posts per month is same as the mean amount of time last year}

ALTERNATE HYPOTHESIS, H_1 : \mu > 14.8 hours  {means that the mean amount of time American teenagers watch social media posts per month is greater than the mean amount of time last year}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test;

             T.S. = \frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } ~ t_n_-_1

where, \bar X = sample mean amount of time per month each teenager watched social media posts = 15.6 hours

             s = sample standard deviation = 2.5 hours

             n = sample of teenagers = 11

So, <u>test statistics</u> =  \frac{15.6 - 14.8}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{11} } } ~ t_1_0

                            = 1.06

Hence, the value of test statistics is 1.06.

A rectangular house measuring 50 feet by 24 feet is to have a gravel pathway of constant width built all around it. There is eno
Maksim231197 [3]
First, we determine the area of the rectangular house by multiplying the length by the width. That is,
             area of the house = (50 ft)(24 ft) = 1200 ft²
Given that all sides of the house should have the pathway, the length of the house plus the pathway should be 50+2x and the new width would be 24+2x. The new area minus the original area of the house should not be more than 345 ft². Thus, the equation would be,
                                   (50+2x)(24+2x) - 1200 ≤ 345
