An economist conducted a hypothesis test to test the claim that the average cost of eating a meal at home increased from 2009 to 2010. The average cost of eating a meal at home in 2009 was $5.25 per person per meal. Assume that all conditions for testing have been met. He used technology to complete the hypothesis test. Following is his null and alternative hypothesis and the output from his graphing calculator. H₀: μ = $5.25 Hₐ: μ > $5.25 T-Test μ > 5.25 t = 4.644687288 p = 3.4015934E-5 x̄ = 6.31 Sx = 1.25 n = 30 At the 5% significance level, choose the statement that contains the correct conclusion regarding the hypothesis and the original claim. a) Reject the null hypothesis; there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the average cost of eating at home has increased since 2009. b) Fail to reject the null hypothesis; there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the average cost of eating at home has increased since 2009. c) Reject the null hypothesis; there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the average cost of eating at home has increased since 2009. d) Fail to reject the null hypothesis; there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the average cost of eating at home has increased since 2009.

In statistical inference, a P-value of 0.3 A. provides mild evidence against the null hypothesis. B. provides mild evidence against the alternative hypothesis. C. provides strong evidence in support of the alternative hypothesis. D. provides strong evidence in support of the null hypothesis. E. is simply inconclusive.

The table shows the earnings (in thousands of dollars) of a random sample of 11 people with bachelor's degrees and 10 people with associate's degrees. At alpha = 0.05, is there enough evidence to support the belief that there is a difference in the earnings of people with bachelor's degrees and those with associate's degrees? Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis and interpret the decision in the context of the original claim. Degree Salary (in thousands of dollars) Bachelor's 34 43 30 31 44 31 63 47 68 56 35 Associate's 37 40 46 23 21 36 41 45 34 25 A. The test statistic is not between the critical values, so reject the null hypothesis. At the 5% level of significance, there is enough evidence to support the claim. B. The test statistic is between the critical values, so fail to reject the null hypothesis. At the 5% level of significance, there is not enough evidence to support the claim. C. The test statistic is between the critical values, so reject the null hypothesis. At the 5% level of significance, there is enough evidence to support the claim. D. The test statistic is not between the critical values, so fail to reject the null hypothesis. At the 5% level of significance, there is enough evidence to support the claim.
