A shing expert states that the best chance of catching bass occurs when the pH of the water is between 7.5 to 7.9. f Suppose you suspect that acid rain is lowering the pH of your favorite shing spot and you wish to determine whether the pH is less than 7.5. (a) State the alternative and null hypotheses that you would choose for a statistical test. r. Ho: [1 = 7.5 versus Ha: ,u i 7.5 (II. Ho: ,u 7.5 1" Ho: ,u i 7.5 versus Ha: ,u = 7.5 r. Ho: [.t = 7.5 versus Ha: ,u 7.5 0)) Does the alternative hypothesis in part (a) imply a one- or a two-tailed test? Explain. If\" . . . . . .

Since it rs necessary to test that the average pH level is more than 7.5, the test is one- tailed. r Since it is necessary to test that the average pH level is different from 7.5, the test is one-tailed. (C) Suppose that a random sample of 50 water specimens gave pH readings with x = 7.2 and s = 0.3. Just glancing at the data, do you think that the difference x i 7.5 = 70.3 is large enough to indicate that the mean pH of the water samples is less than 7.5? (Do not conduct the test.) (d) Now conduct a statistical test of the hypotheses in part (a) and state your conclusions. Test using a = 0.05. Compare your statistically based decision with your intuitive decision in part (c). Find the test statistic and rejection region. (Round your answers to two decimal places. If the test is one-tailed, enter NONE for the unused region.) test statistic z = rejection region z > State your conclusion. C Fail to reject Ho. There is sufficient evidence to indicate that the mean pH of the water samples is less than 7.5. Reject Ho. There is insufficient evidence to indicate that the mean PH of the water samples is less than 7.5. Reject Ho. There is sufficient evidence to indicate that the mean pH of the water samples is less than 7.5. Fail to reject Ho. There is insufficient evidence to indicate that the mean pH of the water samples is less than 7.5. You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. 2.

A survey reported the number of meters per week swum by two groups of swimmers-those who competed only in breaststroke and those who competed in the individual medley (which includes breaststroke). The number of meters per week practicing the breaststroke swim was recorded and the summary statistics are shown here Breaststroke Individual Medley Sample Size 130 80 Sample Mean 9,016 5,853 Sample Standard Deviation 7,162 1,960 (a) Construct a 99% confidence interval for the difference in the average number of meters that breaststroke versus individual medley swimmers swam. (Use Mi for the breaststroke and M2 for the individual medley and compare (M1 - M2). Round your answers to the nearest whole number.) meters to meters (b) How much longer do pure breaststroke swimmers practice that stroke than individual medley swimmers? (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.) Pure breaststroke swimmers swim, on average, between and more meters per week than individual medley swimmers. What is the practical reason for this difference? Pure breaststroke swimmers know how difficult their stroke is and practice. Swimmers in the individual medley have other strokes to practice. Pure breaststroke swimmers are more likely to practice than other swimmers. Swimmers in the individual medley have teammates so they don't need to practice as much.
