Find the test statistic to test the hypothesis that $mu_1 > mu_2$. Two samples are randomly selected from each population. The sample statistics are given below. Use $alpha = 0.05$. $n_1 = 100$ $n_2 = 125$ $ar{x}_1 = 630$ $ar{x}_2 = 615$ $s_1 = 45$ $s_2 = 25$ A. 0.91 B. 1.86 C. 2.81 D. 2.99

A random sample of size n1=25, taken from a normal population with a standard deviation ̃̑1=5.2, has a mean x̄1=81. A second random sample of size n2=36, taken from a different normal population with a standard deviation of ̃̑2=3.4, has a mean x̄2=76. Test the hypothesis that ̃̑1 = ̃̑2 against the alternative, ̃̑1 ≠ ̃̑2. Use a significance level of 0.05.

Consider the following hypothesis test: H0: μ = 50 Ha: μ > 50 A sample of 60 is used and the population standard deviation is 8. Use the critical value approach to state your conclusion for each of the following sample results. Use α = 0.05. a. With x̄ = 52.5, what is the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals)? b. With x̄ = 51, what is the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals)? c. With x̄ = 51.8, what is the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals)?

You wish to test the following claim ( H a ) at a significance level of α = 0.001 . H o : μ = 81.4 H a : μ < 81.4 You believe the population is normally distributed, but you do not know the standard deviation. You obtain the following sample of data: data 13.7, 13.7, 59, 34.5, 79.8 1.) What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to three decimal places.) test statistic = 2.) What is the p-value for this sample? (Report answer accurate to four decimal places.) p-value =
