Conduct Hypothesis Testing Using Small-Sample Tests.

An experimental study was conducted by a researcher to determine if new time slot has an effect on the performance of students in mathematics. Ten randomly selected students participated in the study. Toward the end of the investigation, a standardized assessment was conducted. The sample mean was X=75 and the standard deviation s=20. In the standardization of the test, the mean was 65 and the standard deviation was 10. Based on the evidence at hand, is the new time slot effective? Use α=0.05.




Conduct Hypothesis Testing Using the Traditional Method

The Mathematics Department in a certain university is conducting a study to determine how long it takes its graduates to find a job. A sample of 80 graduates was surveyed and it was found out that the average time it has taken a graduate to find a new job is 2.5 months, with a standard deviation of 2 months. Is there a sufficient evidence to conclude that the graduate of this department takes on the average more than two months to find a job? Use the 90% confidence level.

An industrial company claims that the mean pH level of the water in a nearby river is 6.8. You randomly select 19 water samples and measure their pH level. The mean and standard deviation are 6.5 and 0.25, respectively. Is there enough evidence to reject the company’s claim at a significance level of 0.05?
