At the time she was hired as a server at the Grumney Family Restaurant, Beth Brigden was told, “You can average $88 a day in tips.” Assume the population of daily tips is normally distributed with a standard deviation of $2.50. Over the first 50 days she was employed at the restaurant, the mean daily amount of her tips was $89.93. At the 0.10 significance level, can Ms. Brigden conclude that her daily tips average more than $88?

a. State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis.
H0: μ >88 ; H1: μ = 88
H0: μ ≥ 88 ; H1: μ < 88
H0: μ = 88 ; H1: μ ≠ 88
H0: μ ≤ 88 ; H1: μ > 88
b. State the decision rule.
Reject H1 if z < 1.28
Reject H1 if z > 1.28
Reject H0 if z < 1.28
Reject H0 if z > 1.28
c. Compute the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Value of the test statistic
d. What is your decision regarding H0?
Reject H0
Do not reject H0
e. What is the p-value? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
p-value

2.A sample of 39 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean is 31, and the population standard deviation is 5. Conduct the following test of hypothesis using the 0.05 significance level.
H0 : μ ≤ 30
H1 : μ > 30
a. Is this a one- or two-tailed test?
“Two-tailed”-the alternate hypothesis is different from direction.
“One-tailed”-the alternate hypothesis is greater than direction.
b. What is the decision rule? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
H0, when z >
c. What is the value of the test statistic? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Value of the test statistic
d. What is your decision regarding H0?
Do not reject
Reject
There is evidence to conclude that the population mean is greater than 30.
e. What is the p-value? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
p-value

The amount of water consumed each day by a healthy adult follows a normal distribution with a mean of 1.50 liters. A sample of 10 adults after the campaign shows the following consumption in liters. A health campaign promotes the consumption of at least 2.0 liters per day:

1.52 1.64 1.66 1.40 1.82 1.70 1.90 1.45 1.78 1.92

At the 0.010 significance level, can we conclude that water consumption has increased? Calculate and interpret the p-value.

A United Nations report shows the mean family income for Mexican migrants to the United States is $28,540 per year. A FLOC (Farm Labor Organizing Committee) evaluation of 26 Mexican family units reveals a mean to be $30,500 with a sample standard deviation of $10,500. Does this information disagree with the United Nations report? Apply the 0.01 significance level.

The American Water Works Association reports that the per capita water use in a single-family home is 80 gallons per day. Legacy Ranch is a relatively new housing development. The builders installed more efficient water fixtures, such as low-flush toilets, and subsequently conducted a survey of the residences. Twenty-six owners responded, and the sample mean water use per day was 78 gallons with a standard deviation of 7.2 gallons per day.

At the 0.01 level of significance, is that enough evidence to conclude that residents of Legacy Ranch use less water on average?
