The average (mean) annual income was less than $50,000,

One-Sample Z: Income ($1000)

Test of mu = 50 vs < 50
The assumed standard deviation = 14.64

95% Upper
Variable N Mean StDev SE Mean Bound Z P
Income ($1000) 50 43.74 14.64 2.07 47.15 -3.02 0.001

α 0.05= -1.645

H0 μ = 50,000
Ha μ < 50,000

The hypothesis test claims that the average annual income was less than $50,000. H0 claims equal to $50,000 and the alternative hypothesis claims less than $50,000. The significance level is α 0.05= -1.645. According to Course Project data, when I generate the data of income in Minitab, I found the standard deviation, which is 14.64. Then next step is calculating the z-value by Minitab, which is -3.02.
Consequently;
z-value < α 0.05 -3.020.4

The hypothesis test claims that the true population proportion of customers who live in urban area is greater than %40. H0 claims equal to %40 and the alternative hypothesis claims less than %40. The significance level is α 0.05= 1.645. According to Course Project data, when I generate the data of income in Minitab, I calculated the number of trails and event respectively. The number of trails is 66 and events is 171. Then next step is calculating the proportion by Minitab, which is -0.37.
Consequently;
-0.37 significance level.

The average (mean) number of years lived in the current home is less than 13 years,

One-Sample Z: Years

Test of mu = 13 vs < 13
The assumed standard deviation = 5.086

95% Upper
Variable N Mean StDev SE Mean Bound Z P
Years 50 12.260 5.086 0.719 13.443 -1.03 0.152

α 0.05= -1.645

H0 μ = 13
Ha μ < 13

The hypothesis test claims that the average number of years lived in the current home is less than 13 years. H0 claims equal to 13 years and the alternative hypothesis claims less

    Furthermore, after running a 95% confidence interval on this data, we can say that we are 95% confidence interval on this data and we are 95% certain that the avarage (mean) annual income falls at 47,210 on the higher end of the tail, which is less than 50,000. Since the p-value of .002 is less than the alpha value of .05, we can say beyond a reasonable doubt that the manager's alternative hypothesis is correct and we will reject the null hypothesis because we have sufficient evidence for rejection.…

    Is there a difference in earned wages for workers with a 12th grade education based on the age of the worker? At a five percent level of significance (α), the team’s null hypothesis (H0) is that the mean scores are the same for the four groups 18-25, 26-33, 36-44, and 46-53. The alternate hypothesis (H1) is that at least one mean is different. These hypotheses are simply illustrated as: H0: πgroup 1 = πgroup 2 = πgroup 3 = πgroup 4, H1: At least one mean is different.…

    See my comments in red. Scoring last page. INTRODUCTION My topic is the average tuition cost of a 4-yr. public college. Since I will soon be transferring to a 4-yr. college, I thought this topic would be perfect. "The College Board" says that the average tuition cost of college is $5836 per year. I will be researching online the costs of different public colleges to test this claim. I will be using the T-test for a mean, since my sample is going to be less than 30 and an unknown population standard deviation. I will also use Chi-Square Test of Independence. HYPOTHESIS I think the average cost of tuition is lower than the average stated by “The College Board”. Ho: mu >/= $5836. H1: mu< $5836 (Claim)…

    Ribosomal 5S RNA can be presented as a sequence of 120 nucleotides. Each nucleotide can be represented by one of four characters: A (Adenine), G (Guanine), C (Cytosine), or U (Uracil). The characters occur with different probabilities for each person. We wish to test if a new sequence is the same as ribosomal 5S RNA. For this purpose, we replicate the new sequence 100 times and find that there are 60 A’s in the20th position. Use a 0.05 level of significance.…
