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.

PLEASE HELP!

Hello! $200 is the fixed amount. B doesn't have 200 as part of the problem, so B is eliminated. A is also out, because you add, not subtract. 100 is the amount of boots made, not the amount made per pair of boots. 100 would be the value of "x". The cost per day is $9,200, and 9,200 - 200 is 9,000. With 100 pairs of boots being made each day, 9,000/100 is 90. It would cost $90 per pair of boots made, with the variable "x" being beside it. The correct equation would be C(x) = 90x + 200. The answer is D.
