150 x 2/5 = 150*2 = 300/5 = 60

150-60 = 90

90+35 = 125 passengers

An advertisement for a popular weight-loss clinic suggests that participants in its new diet program lose, on average, more than

Sedbober [7]

Testing the hypothesis, it is found that:

a)

The null hypothesis is: $H_0: \mu \leq 10$

The alternative hypothesis is: $H_1: \mu > 10$

b)

The critical value is: $t_c = 1.74$

The decision rule is:

If t < 1.74, we <u>do not reject</u> the null hypothesis.
If t > 1.74, we <u>reject</u> the null hypothesis.

c)

Since t = 1.41 < 1.74, we <u>do not reject the null hypothesis</u>, that is, it cannot be concluded that the mean weight loss is of more than 10 pounds.

Item a:

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean loss is of <u>at most 10 pounds</u>, that is:

$H_0: \mu \leq 10$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean loss is of <u>more than 10 pounds</u>, that is:

$H_1: \mu > 10$

Item b:

We are having a right-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is more than a value, with a <u>significance level of 0.05</u> and 18 - 1 = <u>17 df.</u>

Hence, using a calculator for the t-distribution, the critical value is: $t_c = 1.74$ .

Hence, the decision rule is:

If t < 1.74, we <u>do not reject</u> the null hypothesis.
If t > 1.74, we <u>reject</u> the null hypothesis.

Item c:

We have the <u>standard deviation for the sample</u>, hence the t-distribution is used. The test statistic is given by:

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

The parameters are:

$\overline{x}$ is the sample mean.
$\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
s is the standard deviation of the sample.
n is the sample size.

For this problem, we have that:

$\overline{x} = 10.8, \mu = 10, s = 2.4, n = 18$

Thus, the value of the test statistic is:

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

$t = \frac{10.8 - 10}{\frac{2.4}{\sqrt{18}}}$

$t = 1.41$

Since t = 1.41 < 1.74, we <u>do not reject the null hypothesis</u>, that is, it cannot be concluded that the mean weight loss is of more than 10 pounds.

All you do is subtract 3.05 and 2.74 then do the same thing with the other ones and see what number is between all of them. What grade are you in
