how do you makeahypothesis testing to test a premise. Use .05 for your alpha and give the scenario. Set up the problem, solve it and state your conclusions.

See the example below.

make a hypothesis test.For instance, XYZ car company boast that it's new car Eco Auto gets at least 59 miles to the gallon. Given a sample mean of 57 and a standard deviation of 3.5 where 35 people were tested, find the z value and p score. Hint: Use the P value calculator in the announcements to find the p score. Note: On this one you do not need to attach an excel spreadsheet.

Student Response:

Ho: >=59

Ha: <59

You can put this in excel or your calculator

= (57-59)/(3.5/35^.5)

=-3.38

Using the z to p value calculator

with =.05, 1 tailed test and z=-3.38, you get

p=.000362

____________________________________________________________________________________

or enter this in excel

=norm.dist(57,59,3.5/35^.5,true) and hit enter

.000362

This is the z value and in this case the p value

If you have a 2 tailed- test, then multiply the value you get by 2.

and hit enter

Since p < .05, you reject the null.
