Suppose the average time to complete a marathon is believed to be 264 minutes. If a random sample of 67 marathon runners posted an average time of 248 minutes, with a standard deviation of 46.6 minutes, is there evidence to support the claim that the average time is lower than originally thought? Perform a hypothesis test with significance level 0.01.

A. State the null hypothesis in symbols and in a complete sentence.

B. State the alternative hypothesis in symbols and in a complete sentence.

C. Calculate the test statistic.

D. Calculate the p-value.

E. State your conclusion in context of the research question.

F. If you changed the significance level to 0.05, would that change your conclusion? Explain!

Find a grocery product that is being featured as being new and answer the following questions. Please number from 1 to 10 at the beginning of each of your answers. For example, 1. The product’s name is Mr. Ted’s brand Soda Crackers.  Those not numbered will not be counted.

Note: To aid in finding a new product: Look for displays, shelf signage, the word NEW on the package, or recall a recent advertisement about the new product. Do NOT submit a product that has been on the market for a significant time period and widely adopted – as it will not be graded. (Brand extensions are fine.)

Once you've selected a new product, answer the following questions. Please write in paragraph form and use the question in the topic sentence of each paragraph.

1. What is the complete product name and who is the manufacturer?
2. Using marketing terminology, what type of consumer product is it? (See the information in this week's Commentary & Readings. Do not say it is a cookie, cracker, etc.)
3. Describe how this product fits into its manufacturer’s product mix. (Check out the section in the text on this.)
4. Describe its logo and/or trademark.
5. Who do you think is the target market? How can you tell?
6. Is it co-branded? Is it a brand extension of an existing product?
7. What other products is it competing with?
8. How is it priced in relation to its competitor products?
9. How is it promoted? (Examine the package and shelf display. Have you seen any advertisements or public relations?)
10. Do you believe it will be a success or a failure? Why?

For each question please state your null and alternative hypothesis, your p-value and conclusion of your hypothesis test. You may use your calculator to perform the hypothesis.

1. Research conducted a few years ago showed that 35% of UCLA students had travelled outside the US. UCLA has recently implemented a new study abroad program and results of a new survey show that out of the 100 randomly sampled students 40 have travelled abroad. Is there significant evidence to suggest that the proportion of students at UCLA who have travelled abroad has increased after the implementation of the study abroad program? Use a .01 significance level.

   2. Sleep experts believe that sleep apnea is more likely to occur in men than in the general population. In other words, they claim the percentage of men who suffer from sleep apnea is greater than 5.8%. To test this claim, one sleep expert examines a simple random sample of 90 men and determines 9 of these men suffer from sleep apnea. Does this evidence support the claim that the percentage of men who suffer from sleep apnea not longer equals 5.8%? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

A BOTNET is a collection or a network of infectious ‘bots’ i.e. machines. Botnets have become a platform for the infection to the Internet.

Consider the following scenario: At age 63, Ms. Breene lived a sedentary life as a clerk in a small insurance company. She would joke that, since her dog died, her only exercise was walking back and forth to her car. She had talked with friends about joining the local health club, and it was on her to-do list, perhaps when she retired in a couple of years. Shortly before lunch one morning, someone at work found Ms. Breene at her desk in a confused and unresponsive state. A colleague drove her to the emergency room, where elevated cardiac markers and EKG changes showed that Ms. Breene had suffered a myocardial infarction.

Many of the other insurers express concern to the insurance commissioner that these rates are too low. Discuss whether the insurance commissioner can take action on the complaint in an open-competition rating system. Explain your answers.
