Hi I need help with this practice exam, thank you!
Question 1 (1 point) Exhibit 8-12 In order to estimate the average time spent on an exam at a local university, data were collected from a sample of 36 business students over a one-week period. Assume the population standard deviation is 6 hours. Refer to Exhibit 8-12. With a .95 probability, the margin of error is approximately O 21 1.96 O.26 1.64 Question 2 (1 point) Which of the following is an improper form of the null and alternative hypotheses? OHOH SHO and Had toExcel Problem Question 3 (1 point) A population has a mean of 180 and a standard deviation of 36. A sample of 81 observations will be taken. The probability that the mean from that sample will be between 182 and 178 is 0.8185 0.0228 O 0.1359 0.3829Question 4 (1 point) The number of random samples (without replacement) of size 3 that can be drawn from a population of size 7 is 35 Oo O 2 Question 5 (1 point) Exhibit 9-31 n = 64 Ho: M = 60 x= 64.8 H: ul * 60 0 = 24 Refer to Exhibit 9-31.

The p-value is equal to O.1096 O.2302 -0548 2698 Question 6 (1 point) If we want to provide a 95% confidence interval for the mean of a population, the Z value is. O .485 O .95 1.96Question 7 (1 point) In stats we can either use a critical value or a p-value approach for hypothesis testing. If the p-value approach our decision rule is to reject the null hypothesis if_ Op-value is 1 Op-value = z Op-value s a Op-value > a Question 8 (1 point) Exhibit 8-31 A random sample of 36 automobiles traveling on a section of an interstate showed an average speed of 60 mph. The distribution of speeds of all cars on this section of highway is normally distributed, with a standard deviation of 12 mph. Refer to Exhibit 8-31. If the sample size was 49 (other factors remain unchanged), the interval for a would O become wider become narrower O not changeQuestion 8 (1 point) Exhibit 8-31 A random sample of 36 automobiles traveling on a section of an interstate showed an average speed of 60 mph.

If the sample size was 49 (other factors remain unchanged), the interval for / would become wider O become narrower O not change O become zero Question 9 (3 points) Laura Naples, manager of Heritage Inn, periodically collects and tabulates information about a sample of the hotel's overnight guests. This information aids her in pricing and scheduling decisions she must make. The table below lists data on 10 randomly selected hotel registrants, collected as the registrants checked out. The data listed are: . Number of people in the group . Hotel's shuttle service used: yes or no . Total telephone charges incurred . Reason for stay: business or personalQuestion 9 (3 points) Laura Naples, manager of Heritage Inn, periodically collects and tabulates information about a sample of the hotel's overnight guests.

Do you use a normal (Z) or a T-distribution? Why? b. Before cell telephones became so common, the average telephone charge per registered group was at least $5.00. Laura suspects that the average has dropped. Test Ho: H 2 5 and Ha: u 75 O Ho: M * 75 Ha: 1 = 75 OHO:1 = 75 Ha:14 x 75 Question 14 (1 point) If the population involves an ongoing process that makes listing or counting every element in the population impossible, we consider N to be infinite known O finite O skewedQuestion 14 (1 point) If the population involves an ongoing process that makes listing or counting every element in the population impossible, we consider N to be infinite known finite O skewed Question 15 (1 point) The : distribution should be used whenever the population is not normally distributed the sample size is less than 30 the population standard deviation is unknown None of the answers is correct. Page 5 of 7 Previous Page Next PageQuestion 16 (1 point) Exhibit 9-61 A random sample of 64 people was taken. Forty percent of the people in the sample favored Candidate H. We are interested in determining whether or not the proportion of the population in favor of Candidate H is significantly more than 50%. Refer to Exhibit 9-61. The test statistic is -2.80 O 1.6 O -1.6 1.25 Question 17 (1 point) Exhibit 9-31 n = 64 Ho: M = 60 x = 64.8 H : # 60 0 = 24Question 17 (1 point) Exhibit 9-31 n = 64 Ho: H = 60 x= 64.8 H : u # 60 0 = 24 Refer to Exhibit 9-31.

The population proportion equals . 16. The probability that the sample proportion will be less than . 1768 is O.3409 9222 O.0778 O.6591Question 20 (1 point) A sample of 80 observations will be taken from a process (an infinite population).
