A)
Consider the accompanying data on breaking load (kg/25 mm width) for various fabrics in both an unabraded condition and an abraded condition. Use the paired t test to test H0: μD = 0 versus Ha: μD > 0 at significance level 0.01. (Use μD = μU − μA.)
Fabric | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | |
U | 36.2 | 55.0 | 51.5 | 38.9 | 43.2 | 48.8 | 25.6 | 49.5 |
A | 28.5 | 20.0 | 46.0 | 34.5 | 36.0 | 52.5 | 26.5 | 46.5 |
Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to three decimal places.)
t | = | |
P-value | = |
B)
A sample of 311 urban adult residents of a particular state revealed 61 who favored increasing the highway speed limit from 55 to 65 mph, whereas a sample of 171 rural residents yielded 70 who favored the increase. Does this data indicate that the sentiment for increasing the speed limit is different for the two groups of residents?
Test H0: p1 − p2 = 0 versus Ha: p1 − p2 ≠ 0 using α = 0.05, where p1 refers to the urban population. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.)
z = | |
P-value = |
If the true proportions favoring the increase are actually
p1 = 0.20 (urban) and p2 =
0.42 (rural), what is the probability that H0
will be rejected using a level 0.05 test with m = 311,
n = 171? (Round your answer to four decimal
places.)
P = | |
