Assuming that on average college students in the U.S. send 120 text messages per day. A researcher wants to examine if the amount of text messages sent daily by UNC students differs from the national average. The researcher took a sample of 64 UNC students, and finds that the mean number of texts per day is 126 with a standard deviation of 24. Use alpha .05 a) Is this a one-tail or two-tail test? Write appropriate hypotheses and assumptions. b)...

You can estimate the total number of text messages you send and receive in a year as follows: Count up the number of text messages sent and received during the one-hour period of a typical day when you do the most texting; then ... Multiply that count by 13, and multiply that result by 365, the number of days in a year. 13 is a guesstimate or SWAG for the ratio of the total number of messages sent and received...

Assume that a typical college student in the US sends 75 text messages a day with a standard deviation of 12 text messages. If we take a random sample of 40 college students, what is the probability that this group will send an average (x-bar) of 78 or more messages, tomorrow?

A study finds that graduate students send a mean of 74 text messages per day with...

A study finds that graduate students send a mean of 74 text messages per day with a standard deviation of 15.2 text message per day while undergraduate students send a mean of 116 text messages per day with a standard deviation of 26.51. Which group, the undergraduate students or the graduate students have more variation in the number of sent text messages? Undergraduates, because their standard deviation is higher Undergraduates, because their standard deviation is lower Graduate students, because their...

High school girls average 80 text messages daily. Assume the population standard deviation is 15 text messages. Assume normality. What is the probability that the sample mean is more than 90? What is the probability that the sample mean is less than 85? What is the probability the sample mean is in between 85 and 90?

A Washington, D.C., “think tank” announces the typical teenager sent 67 text messages per day in 2017. To update that estimate, you phone a sample of 12 teenagers and ask them how many text messages they sent the previous day. Their responses were: 51 175 47 49 44 54 145 203 21 59 42 100 State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis. State the decision rule for 0.05 significance level. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) Reject H0...

A particular telephone number is used to receive both voice calls and fax messages. Suppose that 20% of the incoming calls involve fax messages, and consider a sample of 20 incoming calls. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that at most 5 of the calls involve a fax message? (b) What is the probability that exactly 5 of the calls involve a fax message? (c) What is the probability that at least 5 of...

The probability that you receive at least one phone call during two hours is 0.97. If number of calls X follows Poisson distribution a)what is probability that 2 or more phone calls will be received during 3h period? b)Find the number of calls N during three hours period such that P{X= N} ≥ P{X = k} for all k from 0 to ∞

1a. A particular telephone number is used to receive both voice calls and fax messages. Suppose that 20% of the incoming calls involve fax messages, and consider a sample of 20 incoming calls. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that at most 6 of the calls involve a fax message? (b) What is the probability that exactly 6 of the calls involve a fax message? (c) What is the probability that at...
