Question:
1. A population of wild hogs have heights that are normally distributed with a mean of 27" with a standard deviation of 8.5". A recent Fish and Game trapping program captured 42 of these hogs and found a sample mean height of 24" and a sample standard deviation of 4.7". Does this data give good evidence that the population of hogs have heights less than 27". Use an alpha of 5%.
a. What would the hypothesis look like for this situation?(A)
b. What is the test statistic and p value for this test? (C)
Test Stat =_________ P-Value =___________
2. Based on a P-Value of 3% and a alpha of 1% which decision would you choose? Circle or highlight the correct choice. (B)
Reject the null in favor of the alternative.
Fail to reject the null in favor of the alternative.
3. You are testing the claim that the mean weight for a production line of parts is less than 34g. You reject the null. What does this outcome mean in terms of the problem?(D)
