So I have already solved these problems, I would just like to check if they are correct, they are simple plug and chug, but I would just like to make sure :^) Thank you!

question 3 looks good

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

unfortunately I don't remember how to do 4, so someone else will have to check that but I'm now looking at 5

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

for #5, I'm getting this test statistic (3.72-3.50)/(1.25/sqrt(8)) = 0.497803

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

for the next box on #5, I'm getting 1.64485 which I guess it's pretty close to 1.65

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

oh wait, I just noticed that the last two boxes in #3 are off. So I'd redo that one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait so for #3 its 95 then -2.58 yes :^)?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you have the -2.58 right, but it's for box 3

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you should have 2.58 for box 2

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

because the acceptance region is from -2.58 to 2.58 anything outside this region is the rejection region

Thank you so very much for your helpful insight!

quick q though how did you get "for the next box on #5, I'm getting 1.64485 which I guess it's pretty close to 1.65", don't you just look on a chart for that?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I used a calculator to get 1.64485 (specifically I used the program Matlab), but yes you use a table if you don't have access to a calculator.

Oh kay cool great! Everything was correct after submission :^)
