The national mean sales price for a new one-family home is $181,900. A sample of 40 one-family homes in the south showed a sampl

e mean of $166,400 and a sample standard deviation of $ 33,500.
Required:
a. Formulate the null and alternative hypothesis for this problem so the sample data support the conclusion that the population mean sales prices for new one-family homes in the South is less expensive than the national mean of $181,900.
b. What is the value of the test statistic?
c. What is the p-value?
d. At α = 0,01 what is your conclusion?

Answer:

a

The  null hypothesis is  \mu  =  \$181,900

The alternative hypothesis is  \mu <  \$ 181.900

b

t = -2.92

c

p-value  =  0.0016948

d

There no sufficient evidence to support the conclusion that the population mean sales prices for new one-family homes in the South is less expensive than the national mean of $181,900

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  population mean is  \mu  =  \$ 181, 900

    The  sample size is  n =  40

    The  sample  mean is  \=  x  =  \$ 166,400

      The  sample  standard deviation is s= \$ 33, 500

The  null hypothesis is  \mu  =  \$181,900

The alternative hypothesis is  \mu <  \$ 181.900

 

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

      t =  \frac{ \= x  -  \mu }{ \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }

=>    t =  \frac{  166400  - 181900 }{ \frac{33500}{\sqrt{40} } }

=>    t = -2.92

Generally the p-value is obtain from the z-table  the value is  

      p-value  =  P(Z < t ) = P(Z  <  -2.93) = 0.0016948

=>    p-value  =  0.0016948

From the calculation we see that  

     p-value  >  \alpha  hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Thus there no sufficient evidence to support the conclusion that the population mean sales prices for new one-family homes in the South is less expensive than the national mean of $181,900

April, Sean, Jessica, and Nathan are all going out to dinner using a $50 gift card from Nathan's mom. April's sandwich is $10.67
morpeh [17]

Answer: 18.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright here we go

50- 10.67 will equal 39.33

we use the same card for everyone so subtract their totals

39.33-11.42= 27.91

27.91-9.08= 18.83

Nathans steak dinner would cost 18.83

Hope this helped

In 1990, the cost of tuition at a large Midwestern university was $99 per credit hour. In 2003, tuition had risen to $268 per cr
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

63%

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>From the question, we aim to find the percent increase in the tuition</em>

Given data

initial cost= $99 per credit hour

Final cost=  $268 per credit hour

% increase= (Final - initial )/initial *100

substitute

% increase= (268- 99 )/268 *100

% increase= 169 /268 *100

% increase= 0.630*100

% increase= 63%

Hence the increase in the tuition from 1990 to 2003 is 63%
