You are running a hypothesis test on a population average. You collect a sample of size 101 and the histogram of the data is symmetric and bell-shaped. What distribution can you use to run this hypothesis test? Select all that apply.

Step 1
This theorem states that the distribution of sample means will be approximately normally distributed, regardless of the shape of the population distribution, as long as the sample size is large enough (usually considered to be over 30). Second, the problem states Show more…

You are performing a hypothesis test of a single population mean using a Student’s t-distribution. What must you assume about the distribution of the data?

Determine whether the hypothesis test involves a sampling distribution of means that is a normal distribution, Student t distribution, or neither. Claim: 𝜇 = 119. Sample data: 𝑛 = 15, 𝑥̅ = 103, 𝑠 = 15.2. The sample data, for this simple random sample, appear to come from a normally distributed population with unknown 𝜇 and 𝜎.
T. L.
To prepare for the hypothesis test referred to in the previous question, the researcher selected a simple random sample of 50 earthquakes from a university database. Which type of distribution should the researcher use to calculate the p-value needed to perform the test? A bootstrap distribution. There is not enough information given to answer the question. The normal distribution. The t distribution.
