Answer:

Originally the word “corn” came from the Germanic word “kurnam,” meaning “small seed.” In the 17th century, salted beef started taking on the name “corned beef” in some parts of England because of the large “kernels” of rock salt used to preserve the it.

A random sample of 50 recent college graduates results in a mean time to graduate of 4.58 years, with a standard deviation of 1.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the mean time to graduate with a bachelor’s degree is (4.32, 4.84).

Yes, this confidence interval contradict the belief that it takes 4 years to complete a bachelor’s degree.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population mean μ, when the population standard deviation is not known is:

$CI=\bar x\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

The information provided is:

$\bar x=4.58\\s=1.10\\\alpha =0.10$

Compute the critical value of t for 90% confidence interval and (n - 1) degrees of freedom as follows:

$t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=t_{0.10/2, (50-1)}=t_{0.05, 49}=1.671$

*Use a t-table for the probability.

Compute the 90% confidence interval for population mean μ as follows:

$CI=\bar x\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

$=4.58\pm 1.671\times \frac{1.10}{\sqrt{50}}\\=4.58\pm 0.26\\=(4.32, 4.84)$

Thus, the 90% confidence interval for the mean time to graduate with a bachelor’s degree is (4.32, 4.84).

If a hypothesis test is conducted to determine whether it takes 4 years to complete a bachelor’s degree or not, the hypothesis will be:

Hₐ: The mean time it takes to complete a bachelor’s degree is 4 years, i.e. μ = 4.

Hₐ: The mean time it takes to complete a bachelor’s degree is different from 4 years, i.e. μ ≠ 4.

The decision rule based on a confidence interval will be:

Reject the null hypothesis if the null value is not included in the interval.

The 90% confidence interval for the mean time to graduate with a bachelor’s degree is (4.32 years, 4.84 years).

The null value, i.e. μ = 4 is not included in the interval.

The null hypothesis will be rejected at 10% level of significance.

Thus, it can be concluded that that time it takes to complete a bachelor’s degree is different from 4 years.
