Tut 9 16492374 R.J Jubelin

This document contains sample statistics and hypothesis tests from a statistics exam. Question 1 finds highly significant evidence that less than half of Americans would prefer a day off. Question 2 shows sample means are significantly different. Question 3 fails to reject the hypothesis that sample variances are equal. Question 4 conducts a one-tailed test that a population proportion is greater than 0.22, and calculates the power of this test for different sample sizes.

Question 1

𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 0.5
𝐻1 : 𝑝 < 0.5
447
𝑥(ℎ𝑎𝑡) = = 0.4298
1040
𝑝(ℎ𝑎𝑡) − 𝑝 0.4298 − 0.5
𝑧= .= = −4.5277
√𝑝(1 − 𝑝) √0.5(0.5)
𝑛 1040
p-value=NORM.DIST(0.4298,0.5,SQRT(0.25/1040),TRUE)=0.000003

p-value <0.05 so we reject 𝐻0

There is highly significant evidence that the half of all American’s would prefer the day off.

Question 2

𝐻0 : 𝑈1 = 𝑈2
𝐻0 : 𝑈1 < 𝑈2
𝑆1 =1.6380

𝑆2 =2.0822

𝑥1 (ℎ𝑎𝑡) = 4.2867
𝑥2 (ℎ𝑎𝑡) = 7.1147

1 1 (𝑛1 −1)𝑆1 2 +(𝑛2 −1)𝑆2 2


𝑠 ∗ = 𝑠𝑝√𝑛 + 𝑛 = 0.6840 𝑠𝑝 = √ 𝑛1 +𝑛2 −2
= 1.8733
1 2

(𝑥1 (ℎ𝑎𝑡) − 𝑥2 (ℎ𝑎𝑡)) − (𝑈1 − 𝑈2)


𝑡= = −4.1784
𝑠∗
𝑡28,0.975 = 𝑇. 𝐼𝑁𝑉(0.975,28) =2.0484

We reject 𝐻0 because t=-4.1784 is less than 2.0484


Question 3
𝜎1 2⁄
𝐻0 : =1
𝜎2 2
𝜎1 2
𝐻0 : ⁄ 2≠1
𝜎2
𝑆1 =1.6380

𝑆2 =2.0822

𝑠1 2 2.0822
𝐹= = = 1.2711
𝑠2 2 1.6380
𝑝 − 𝑣𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒 = 2 ∗ 𝐹. 𝐷 𝐼𝑆𝑇. 𝑅𝑇(1.2711,14,14) =0.6608
We do not reject 𝐻0 because the p-value is greater then 0.05.

Question 4

a)
𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 0.22
𝐻1 : 𝑝 > 0.22
p(hat) − p
z= = 1.2214
√ p(1 − p)
n
z1−∝ = NORMAL. S. INV(0.9) = 1.2816
2

We do not reject the 𝐻0 because 1.2214<1.2816

b)
𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 0.22
𝐻1 : 𝑝 > 0.22

Under 𝑯𝟎 (p=𝒑𝟎 =0.22)


p(hat) − p
z= = 𝑧1−∝ = 1.2816
√p(1 − p)
n
0.22(0.78)
𝑝(ℎ𝑎𝑡) > 0.22 + 1.2816 ∗ √
𝑛

Under 𝑯𝟏 (p=𝒑𝟎 =0.3)

0.3(0.7)
1 − β = P(Reject H0 |H0 is false) = P(p(hat) > 0.22 + 1.2816 ∗ √ | 𝑝 = 0.3)
𝑛

0.3(0.7)
𝑝(ℎ𝑎𝑡) − 0.3 0.22 + 1.2816 ∗ √ 𝑛 − 0.3
=1−P <
√0.3(0.7) √0.3(0.7)
( n n )

0.22(0.78)
=1 − P(Z < 1.2816 − 0.08 ∗ √ n
)

c)
n=160

0.3(0.7)
= 1 − P (Z < 1.2816 − 0.08 ∗ √ 160
) = NORMAL. S. DIST(1.2787) =0.8995

d)
