To answer questions 1-3, please read the following:
What distribution should be used for hypothesis tests for mean
1) Use normal distribution if
standard deviation of the population is known and
population isnormally distributed
or
standard deviation of the population known and
sample size greater than 30
2) Use t distribution if
standard deviation of the population is not known and population is normally distributed
or
standard deviation of the population is not known and
sample size is greater than 30
3) Use a nonparametric method or bootstrapping if population is not normally distributed and sample size is less than or equal 30
Solve the following to answer questions 4-9
The U.S. Mint has a specification that pennies have a mean weight of 2.5 g. A sample of 37 pennies has a mean weight of 2.49910 g and a standard deviation of 0.01648 g. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that this sample is from a population with a mean weight equal to 2.5 g. Do the pennies appear to conform to the specifications of the U.S. Mint?
