2/8 (Friday) Standard Deviation cont’d Example: Amount of money earned by new immigrants Sample: 12‚ 15‚ 16‚ 20‚ 25‚ 36‚ 40 Step 1: Find the mean * x̄=164/7 * mean is 23.4 Step 2: Find how much each observation deviates from the mean * 12 - 23.4 = -11.4 * 15 – 23.4 = -8.4 * 16 – 23.4 = -7.4 * 20 – 23.4 = -3.4 * 25 – 23.4 = 1.6 * 36 – 23.4 = 12.6 * 40 – 23.4 = 16.6 * Note: all observations below mean will be negative‚ all above will be positive Step

Hypothesis: Ho: P = .10 (Mr. Plex and consortium will seriously consider settlement) H1: P < .10 (Mr. Plex and consortium will rigorously defend any lawsuit by Tommy) Analysis: For this case‚ we use 0.01 as the significance level. In a hypothesis test‚ a Type I Error occurs when the null hypothesis is rejected when it is in fact true. That means if the consortium decides to consider a settlement when greater than 10% of the patrons resented ads/commercials is true and we reject the null hypothesis

1) Suppose that an independent laboratory has tested trash bags and has found that no 30-gallon bags that are currently on the market have a mean breaking strength of 50 pounds or more. On the basis of these results‚ the producer of the new‚ improved trash bag feels sure that its 30-gallon bag will be the strongest such bag on the market if the new trash bag’s mean breaking strength can be shown to be at least 50 pounds. The mean of the sample of 40 trash bag breaking strengths in Table 1.9 is x=50
