The excel document attached to this assignment has data on the number of delayed flights at 29 major US Airports (month of January 2015). In that excel document, you should create three worksheets that are similar to the example used in class on Tuesday the 11th. Follow that template as closely as possible. Clearly label what each value represents. Part 1: Calculate the following Summary Statistics: a) Mean (Sample) b) Median c) Variance d) Standard Deviation (Sample) e) Minimum f) Maximum g) Range

Part 2 Calculate the following, to get a confidence interval a) Sample mean b) Sample standard deviation c) Sample size d) Critical value (t) e) Standard Error f) Margin of error g) Lower end of 95% confidence interval h) Upper end of 95% confidence interval Part 3: Calculate the following, to test a null hypothesis. The null hypothesis I want you to evaluate is that "the population mean of delayed flights is 2700". Conduct a two tailed test (so the alternative is that it is not equal to 2700). Use a 10% significance level (until parts h and i) to evaluate your null hypothesis. a) Sample mean b) Sample standard deviation c) Sample size d) Calculate the test statistic e) Find the p-value f) Do you reject or fail to reject? g) Interpret your finding h) In the excel document (not here), state whether you would have reached the same conclusion at the 5% significance level? i) What about the 1%?
