Question

A microwave oven repairer says that the mean repaircostfordamaged microwave ovens is less

than $ 110. You work for the repairer and want to testthisclaim.You find that a random sample of

five microwave ovens has a mean repair cost of $ 123andastandard deviation of $ 12.00. At

a = 0.05, do you have enough evidence to supporttherepairer'sclaim? Assume the population is

normally distributed.

(a) Write the claim mathematically and identify HQ and Hg.

Which of the following correctly states HQ and Ha?

0'Ho:^110           0Ho:u=110

Ha:p,>110                  Ha:^110

0@ Ho:^110        0'Ho:n>ll0

Ha:U<110                 Ha:U^110

0" Ho:u=ll0

Ha:U<110

0' Ho: H-110

Ha:U>110

(b) Find the critical value(s) and identifytherejectionregion(s).

What is(are) the critical value(s), to?

To=

(Use a comma to separate answers as needed. Round tothreedecimalplaces as needed.)

Which of the following graphs best depicts therejectionregionfor this problem?

0'                0@                0"

0^                        ^O0^0                         ^00

(c) Find the standardized test statistic.

t == |_| (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

(d) Decide whether to reject or fail to rejectthenullhypothesis.

0” Reject Ho because the test statistic is notintherejection region.

0 Fail to reject Ho because the test statistic is intherejectionregion.

0 Fail to reject Ho because the test statistic is notintherejection region.

0 Reject HO because the test statistic is intherejectionregion.
