A store manager hypothesizes that the average number of pages a person copies on the store’s copy machine is less than 40. A sample of 50 customers’ orders is selected. At a = 0.01, is there enough evidence to support the claim? 

 

Use the P-value hypothesis-testing method

 State the hypotheses and identify the claim.

 1. Ho: μ  D 40 (Choose the letter of the best answer)

A. <     B. >     C. ≤      D. ≥      E. =      F. ≠

 

2. Ha: μ    40 (Choose the letter of the best answer)

A. <     B. >     C. ≤      D. ≥      E. =      F. ≠

  

3. The claim is    (Choose the letter of the best answer)

 A. Ho   B. Ha

  

4. Type of Test:    - tailed test (Choose the letter of the best answer)

 A. Right     B. Left     C. Two

 

5. Compute the test value.

Test Value =    (Type the exact answer)

  

6. Find the P-value

 P-value:    (Type the exact answer)

  

Make the decision. 

 7. P    a (Choose the letter of the best answer)

 A. ≤     B. >

 

8. Decision:    Ho (Choose the letter of the best answer)

 A. Accept (Fail to reject)     B.Reject

  

Summarize the results.
