We are interested in how long on average it takes Deadpool to
grow back a leg. A simple random sample of 25 occasions results in
an average of 63 minutes before Deadpool's leg grows back. Assume
that the standard deviation of all grow-back-times is 10
minutes.
A. The 80% confidence interval for Deadpool's average time to grow
back a leg is ( , ). (Answers to two places after the
decimal.)
B. Unless our sample is among the most unusual 5% of samples,
Deadpool's average time to grow back a leg is between ( ) and ( ) .
(Answers to two places after the decimal.)
C. Vanessa claims that average, it takes Deadpool 65 minutes to
grow back a leg. Do we have evidence that she's exaggerating the
truth at each of the following levels?
The associated p-value for this hypothesis test is ( ) (Answers to
four places after the decimal.)
At the 15% level:
At the 13% level:
At the 10% level:
At the 7% level:
At the 5% level:
At the 3% level:
At the 2% level:
At the 1% level:
At the 0.2% level:
At the 0.1% level:
D. Colossus claims that average, it takes Deadpool 65 minutes to
grow back a leg. Do we have evidence that he's mistaken at each of
the following levels?
The associated p-value for this hypothesis test is ( ) (Answers to
four places after the decimal.)
- At the 20% level:
- At the 15% level:
- At the 13% level:
- At the 10% level:
- At the 7% level:
- At the 5% level:
- At the 3% level:
- At the 2% level:
- At the 1% level:
- At the 0.2% level:
- At the 0.1% level:
a)
(Xbar +- z* sigma/sqrt(n))
z= 1.282 for 80% CI
xbar 63.0000
sd 10.000
n 25
alpha 0.2
z 1.282
SE 2.0000
ME 2.5631
lower 60.44
upper 65.56
80% CI is
(60.44 ,65.56 )
B)
z = 1.96 for 0.05 level
95% CI is (59.08,66.92)
c)
Ho : mu = 65
Ha: mu < 65
TS = (Xbar - mu)/(sigma/sqrt(n))
= -1
p-value= P(Z < TS)
= 0.159
if p-value < alpha ,we reject the null hypothesis
hence all level less than 0.159
D) this is 2-tailed
p-value = 0.317
hence all level less than 0.317
Please give me a thumbs-up if this helps you out. Thank you! :)
