A survey of 35 people was conducted to compare their self-reported height to their actual height. The difference between reporte

d height and actual height was calculated. You're testing the claim that the mean difference is greater than 0.7. From the sample, the mean difference was 0.95, with a standard deviation of 0.44. Calculate the test statistic, rounded to two decimal place

Answer:

The test statistic is t = 3.36.

Step-by-step explanation:

You're testing the claim that the mean difference is greater than 0.7.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean difference is of 0.7 or less, that is:

H_0: \mu \leq 0.7

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the mean difference is greater than 0.7, that is:

H_1: \mu > 0.7

The test statistic is:

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

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

0.7 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0.7

A survey of 35 people was conducted to compare their self-reported height to their actual height.

This means that n = 35

From the sample, the mean difference was 0.95, with a standard deviation of 0.44.

This means that X = 0.95, s = 0.44

Calculate the test statistic

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

t = \frac{0.95 - 0.7}{\frac{0.44}{\sqrt{35}}}

t = 3.36

The test statistic is t = 3.36.

A random sample of 8 recent college graduates found that starting salaries for architects in New York City had a mean of $42,653
ycow [4]

Answer:

C. (36337.32, 48968.68)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96*\frac{9114}{\sqrt{8}} = 6315.68

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 42653 - 6315.68 = 36337.32.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 42653 + 6315.68 = 48968.68.

So the correct answer is:

C. (36337.32, 48968.68)
