The mean age of professors at a university is greater than 51.2 years. If a hypothesis test is performed, how should you interpret a decision that rejects the null hypothesis? A) There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim μ > 51.2 B) There is not sufficient evidence to reject the claim μ > 51.2. C) There is sufficient evidence to support the claim μ > 51.2. D) There is sufficient evidence to reject the claim μ > 51.2.

Step 1
2 years. The alternative hypothesis is that the mean age is greater than 51.2 years. If the null hypothesis is rejected, it means that there is sufficient evidence to support the alternative hypothesis. Show more…

The mean age of professors at a university is greater than 46.3 years. If a hypothesis test is performed, how should you interpret a decision that rejects the null hypothesis? There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean age is 46.3. There is not sufficient evidence to reject the claim that the mean age is 46.3. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean age is greater than 46.3. There is sufficient evidence to reject the claim that the mean age is greater than 46.3.

The mean age of professors at a university is 55.3 years. If a hypothesis test is performed, how should you interpret a decision that fails to reject the null hypothesis? Select one: a. There is sufficient evidence to reject the claim μ = 55.3. b. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim μ = 55.3. c. There is not sufficient evidence to reject the claim μ = 55.3. d. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim μ = 55.3.

Testing Claims Using P-Values $(a)$ identify the claim and state $H_{0}$ and $H_{a}$, (b) use technology to find the P-value, (c) decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis, and (d) interpret the decision in the context of the original claim. Assume the population is normally distributed. Class Size You receive a brochure from a large university. The brochure indicates that the mean class size for full-time faculty is fewer than 32 students. You want to test this claim. You randomly select 18 classes taught by full-time faculty and determine the class size of each. The results are shown in the table at the left. At $\alpha=0.05,$ can you support the university's claim?
