68,000, (ii) those whose sales were
more than Dollar 68,000, but less t
han dollar 86,000, and (iii) those w
hose sales exceeded Dollar 86,000.
The salesmen in the first category
were to be given further training an

given efficiency bonus of 2% of thei

- 2. Based on past records, it is generally believed that on an average, a typical University of Technology and Applied Sciences, Nizwa student spends about 25 hours in the LRC per week. Recently, the library has been shifted to a new location which is further away from the academic block. As a result, the administration feels that students may be spending less time in the library. Accordingly a random sample of 41 students were selected and the average number of hours they spend in the library came out to be 16.78 with a standard deviation of 5.17. Carry out an appropriate test of hypotheses for the above problem to test whether the shifting of the library has adversely impacted the study time in the population of all students. (You may assume that study times/week approximately follow a normal distribution in the population).arrow_forwardThe measurement of the number of people who are willing to work, capable of working, and who have jobs that fit their skills is called:arrow_forwardThe single entity of interest is a single Sample Unit Variable Statistic O Oarrow_forward

Some methods of assessing reading level require estimating the average word length. We've randomly chosen 20 words from a randomly selected page in Intro Stats and counted the number of letters in each word: 5, 5, 2, 11, 3, 5, 6, 8, 5, 4, 7, 2, 9, 4, 8, 10, 4, 7, 6, 9 Suppose that our editor was hoping that the book would have a mean word length of 6.8 letters. Does this sample indicate that the authors failed to meet this goal? With a significance level of 0.05, test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion. (i.e state the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses, calculate the test statistic, conclude and interpret it).arrow_forward
