Many airline companies have begun implementing fees for checked bags. Economic theory predicts that passengers will respond to t

he increase in the price of a checked bag by substituting carry-on bags for checked bags. As a result, the mean weight of a passenger's carry-on items is expected to increase after the implementation of the checked-bag fee.
Suppose that a particular airline's passengers had a mean weight for their carry-on items of 16 pounds, the FAA standard average weight, before the implementation of the checked-bag fee.

The airline conducts a hypothesis test to determine whether the current mean weight of its passengers' carry-on items is more than 16 pounds. It selects a random sample of 67 passengers and weighs their carry-on items. The sample mean is x = 17.1 pounds, and the sample standard deviation is
s = 6.0pounds. The airline uses a significance level of α =.05 to conduct its hypothesis test.

a. The hypothesis test is _____ test.

- The test statistic follows a _____ distribution. The value of the test statistic is_____.

b. Use the relevant statistical Distributions table to develop the critical value rejection rule.

According to the critical value approach, the rejection rule is:

A. Reject H0 if t ≤ − 1.997 or t ≥ 1.997
B. Reject H0 if z ≥ 1.645
C. Reject H0 if t ≥ 1.668
D. Reject H0 if t ≤ −1.668

c. The p-value is_____.

d. Using the critical value approach, the null hypothesis is _____, because _____ Using the p-value approach, the null hypothesis is_____, because_____ Therefore, you _____ conclude that the mean weight of the airline's passengers' carry-on items has increased after the implementation of the checked-bag fee.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The hypothesis test is  one tailed_____ test.

(Because we check whether sample weight is greater than hence one tailed or right tailed)

The test statistic follows a __t___ distribution.(Because only sample std deviation s is known)

The value of the test statistic is___Mean difference/Std error =\frac{17.1-16}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{67} } } \\=1.58__

b. df = 66

Reject H0 if t ≥ 1.668

c. The p-value is_____0.059444

d. Using the critical value approach, the null hypothesis is _accepted____, because __t <1.668___ Using the p-value approach, the null hypothesis is__accepted___, because__p value <0.05 our significance level.___ Therefore, you __may___ conclude that the mean weight of the airline's passengers' carry-on items has increased after the implementation of the checked-bag fee.

Whats the perimeter and area of this shape?
stich3 [128]

Answer:

<u>60+14.35=88.27</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

5x12 for the rectangle on the right, then for the circle, using the formula A=πr², I get 28.27, which you divide by 2 because you only need half of the circle, and you get 88.27. I calculated the radius by subtracting 12-6 and then dividing that in half because the radius is half of the distance to the other end of the circle. Then you get the radius of 3, then plug it into the formula to get π(3)², which is just 3.14(9), and you get 28.27.
