h.) Do you have a large enough sample to conduct the correct hypothesis test? Explain with a valid calculation why or why not.

Step 1
For example, if you are testing whether a new drug is effective, H0 might state that the drug has no effect, while H1 states that the drug does have an effect. Show more…

To test H0: σ = 1.8 versus H1: σ > 1.8, a random sample of size n = 21 is obtained from a population that is known to be normally distributed. (a) If the sample standard deviation is determined to be s = 2.4, compute the test statistic. (b) If the researcher decides to test this hypothesis at the α = 0.10 level of significance, use technology to determine the P-value. (c) Will the researcher reject the null hypothesis?

. To test $H_{0}: \sigma=0.35$ versus $H_{1}: \sigma<0.35,$ a random sample of size $n=41$ is obtained from a population that is known to be normally distributed. (a) If the sample standard deviation is determined to be $s=0.23$ compute the test statistic. (b) If the researcher decides to test this hypothesis at the $\alpha=0.01$ level of significance, determine the critical value. (c) Draw a chi-square distribution and depict the critical region. (d) Will the researcher reject the null hypothesis? Why?
Hypothesis Tests Regarding a Parameter
Hypothesis Tests for a Population Standard Deviation
You are performing a hypothesis test of a single population mean using a Student’s t-distribution. The data are not from a simple random sample. Can you accurately perform the hypothesis test?
