Question 1. Problem 9.14, p. 355
Notice the data for this problem are located on the second spreadsheet, tab below. Use the
Data Analysis Toolkit to develop the descriptive statistics for the data on that spreadsheet, then
copy the output and paste it below. By doing so, you won't have to print the data with your lab.

z-Statistic p-value
Hypotheses:
Rejection Region: a = 0.02 a = 0.02
z-coeff = Rej H0 if p-value < 0.02
Don't forget: Rej H0 if z <??
The problem
tells us Test Statistic: z = p-value =
SIGMA = 2.47
Conclusion:
Since the test statistic of z = ?? falls Since the test statistic of p-value = ?? falls
{above/below/between} the critical value {above/below/between} the critical value
of z = ??, we {reject/do not reject} H0 of a = ??, we {reject/do not reject} H0
with at least 98% confidence. with at least 98% confidence.
Implication:
There {is/is not} enough evidence to There {is/is not} enough evidence to
conclude that the new system has conclude that the new system has
reduced mean waiting time to reduced mean waiting time to
less than 6 minutes. less than 6 minutes.
Question 2. Problem 9.42, pp. 365-6
Population proportion = 0.95
Sample x = 316 Sample proportion =
Sample n = 400
z-Statistic p-value
Hypotheses:
Rejection Region: a = 0.01 a = 0.01
z-coeff = Rej H0 if p-value < 0.01
Rej H0 if z < ??
Test Statistic: z = p-value =
Conclusion:
Since the test statistic of z =?? falls Since the test statistic of p-value =?? falls
{above/below/between} the critical {above/below/between} the critical
value of z = ??, we {reject/do not reject} value of a = ??, we {reject/do not reject}
H0 at least 99% confidence. H0 at least 99% confidence.
Implication:
There {is/is not} enough evidence to There {is/is not} enough evidence to
conclude that the manufacturer's claim conclude that the manufacturer's claim
is false. is false.
