Reference text for questions 1-4: Suppose a scratch-off lottery game in NC claims that their cards yield an average prize of $1. To test whether the population mean prize (denote) is different from 0.25, you obtain a random sample of 81 cards. Then, you find that the mean prize in your sample (denote) is equal to $0.95, and the sample standard deviation (denote s) is equal to $0.12.

Which (if any) of the following options correctly specifies the null and alternative hypotheses you are testing?

Select one:

Null:= $0.95 ; Alternative: $0.95

Null:= $1 ; Alternative: $1

Null:= $1 ; Alternative: $1

Null:= $0.95 ; Alternative: $0.95

Null:=; Alternative:

If the null hypothesis is true, what is the mean of your sampling distribution?

Select one:

Mean = $1

Mean = $0.95

Mean = $1 - $0.95 = $0.05

Mean = $0.95 - $1 = -$0.05

Assuming the null hypothesis is true, can youestimatethe standard error of your sampling distribution without knowing the population standard deviation?

If so, what does this imply regarding your test statistic and critical values?

Select one:

No.

Yes. I can use s to estimate my standard error, and a t-distribution to find my test statistic and critical values.

Yes. I can use s to estimate my standard error, and a z-distribution to find my test statistic and critical values.

Yes. I can useto estimate my standard error, and a t-distribution to find my test statistic and critical values.
