A sample of 81 observations is taken from a normal population with a standard deviation of 5. The sample mean is 40.

 

Determine the 95 percent confidence interval for the population mean. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)

 

  Confidence interval for the population mean is 

 

(b)

What is the decision rule? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

 

   H0 and  H1 when z > 

 

There is  evidence to conclude that the population mean is greater than 26.

 

(e)

What is the p-value? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

 

 

 

 H0. Ms. Dennis is  in concluding that more than 60 percent
  of the accounts are in arrears for more than three months.

The waiting time for customers at MacBurger Restaurants follows a normal distribution with a mean of 3 minutes and a standard deviation of 1 minute. At the Warren Road MacBurger, the quality-assurance department sampled 50 customers and found that the mean waiting time was 2.75 minutes. At the .05 significance level, can we conclude that the mean waiting time is less than 3 minutes?
