1.

A manufacturer claims that his tires last at least 40,000

miles. A test on 25 tires reveals that the mean life of a tire

is 39,750 miles, with a standard deviation of 387 miles.

Test the Manufacturer’s claim at α = .01.

a)

Reject Ho

b)

Reject Ha

c)

Fail to reject Ho

d)

Fail to reject Ha

2.

A manufacturer claims that his tires last at least 40,000

miles. A test on 25 tires reveals that the mean life of a tire

is 39,750 miles, with a standard deviation of 387 miles.

Test the Manufacturer’s claim at α = .01.

a)

There is enough evidence to reject the claim

b)

There is not enough evidence to reject the claim

c)

There is enough evidence to support the claim

d)

There is not enough evidence to support the claim

3.

A one sample t-test is conducted on Ho : μ = 81.6. The

sample has a sample mean = 84.1 , s = 3.1, n = 25, and α = .01.

a)

Reject Ho

b)

Reject Ha

c)

Fail to reject Ho

d)

Fail to reject Ha

4.

A one sample t-test is conducted on Ho : μ = 81.6. The

There is not enough evidence to support the claim

5.

In performing a hypothesis test where the null

hypothesis is that the μ = 6.9. A random sample of 16

items is selected. The sample mean is 7.1 and the sample

standard deviation is 2.4. It can be assumed that the

population is normally distributed at α = .05.

a)

Reject Ho

b)

Reject Ha

c)

Fail to reject Ho

d)

Fail to reject Ha

7.

A fast food outlet claims that the mean waiting time in

line is less than 1.9 minutes. A random sample of 20

customers has a mean of 1.7 minutes with a standard

deviation of 0.8 minute. If α = 0.05, test the fast food

outlet's claim using P-values.

Fail to reject Ho

d)

Fail to reject Ha
