One wants to study the daily mean travel distance of a delivery service. In trial runs of 18 randomly chosen delivery trucks, the mean and the standard deviation are found to be 310 km and 70km, respectively. Assume that the daily travel distance is normally distributed. At the 0.1 level of significance, test the claim that the daily mean travel distance is different from 350 km. What is the CONCLUSION?

a. there is not enough assumptions to do a hypothesis test in this case.

b. None of the other answers is true.

In paragraph form, share your thoughts on the following: What do you think it means to be an Early Childhood Educator? How would you describe it? What do they do? What are their responsibilities? Why is it important? What does an early childhood educator teach children?

According to a New York Times/CBS News poll conducted during June 24–28, 2011, 55% of the American adults polled said that owning a home is a very important part of the American Dream (The New York Times, June 30, 2011). Suppose this result was true for the population of all American adults in 2011. In a recent poll of 1800 American adults, 60% said that owning a home is a very important part of the American Dream. Perform a hypothesis test to determine whether it is reasonable to conclude that the percentage of all American adults who currently hold this opinion is higher than 55%. Use a 2% significance level, and use both the p-value and the critical-value approaches.

Round your answers for the observed value of z and the critical value of z to two decimal places, and the p-value to four decimal places.

z_observed =

p-value =  

Critical value =

We can conclude that the percentage of all American adults who currently hold this opinion is .
