Module 5 Homework Assignment1. Find the critical value or values of χ2 based on the given information. H1: σ > 26.1, n = 9, α = 0.01Solution:Instructor Comments:2. Test the claim that for the adult population of one town, the mean annual salary is given byμ = 30,000. Sample data are summarized as n = 17, = $22,298, and s = $14,200. Use a significance level of α = 0.05. State the null and alternative hypotheses.Solution:Instructor Comments:-3. (Refer to Question 2) Find the test statistic.Solution:Instructor Comments:4. (Refer to Question 2) Find the critical value(s) and state and explain decision about null hypothesis.Solution:Instructor Comments:5. (Refer to Question 2) State the conclusion in non-technical terms.Solution:Instructor Comments:6. A manufacturer uses a new production method to produce steel rods. A random sample of 17 steel rods resulted in lengths with a standard deviation of 4.7 cm. At the 0.10 significance level, test the claim that the new production method has lengths with a standard deviation different from 3.5 cm, which was the standard deviation for the old method. State the null and alternative hypotheses.Solution:Instructor Comments:7. (Refer to Question 6) Find the test statistic.Solution:Instructor Comments:8. (Refer to Question 6) Find the critical value(s) and state and explain the decision about the null hypothesis.Solution:Instructor Comments:9.
