Title: Problem 1: A report states that on average Moroccan boys (12-18 years old) get a haircut 5.8 times ... Post by: Amanda387 on May 19, 2020 Problem 1:
A report states that on average Moroccan boys (12-18 years old) get a haircut 5.8 times a year. An independent researcher randomly selected 20 boys (12-18 years old) and obtained these data. 3 2 1 3 7 2 9 4 6 6 8 0 5 6 4 2 1 3 4 1 At α = 0.05, can it be concluded that the average is still 5.8 visits per year? (Hint: use the t test for hypothesis testing) Problem 2: A large university reports that the mean salary of parents of an entering class is $91,600. To see how this compares to his university, a president surveys 28 randomly selected families and finds that their average income is $88,500. If the sample standard deviation is $10,000, can the president conclude that there is a difference? At α = 0.10, is he correct? (Hint: hypothesis testing when the mean is known/ z table) Because of these circumstances, I decided to give you a light final exam.
