sample of 500 women, 210 preferred white wine. What do you conclude at α = .05 about the
claim that women are 25% higher than men on preference for white wine?
A. Reject the null hypothesis
B. Cannot reject the null hypothesis Critical value Z = 1.645 - 2.397 is not greater than 1.645 so fail to reject the null AACSB: Reflective Thinking

Topic: Two independent population proportions 1-927 Chapter 01 - An Introduction to Business Statistics 135. The registrar at a state college is interested in determining whether there is a difference
of more than one credit hour between male and female students in the average number of
credit hours taken during a term. She selected a random sample of 60 male and 60 female
students and observed the following sample information. Setup the alternative hypothesis to test the claim.
A. µf - µm ≠ 0
B. µf - µm ≠ 1
C. µf - µm > 1
D. µf - µm < 1 AACSB: Reflective Thinking

Topic: Two independent population means 1-929 Chapter 01 - An Introduction to Business Statistics 137. The registrar at a state college is interested in determining whether there is a difference
of more than one credit hour between male and female students in the average number of
credit hours taken during a term. She selected a random sample of 60 male and 60 female
students and observed the following sample information. What do you conclude if z = 1.73 at α = .01?
A. Reject the null hypothesis
B. Don't reject the null hypothesis
Z = 1.73 is not greater than Z.01 = 2.33 AACSB: Analytic

Topic: Two independent population means 138. Suppose that a realtor is interested in comparing the price of midrange homes in two
cities in a Midwestern state. She conducts a small survey in the two cities looking at the price
of midrange homes. Assume equal population variances. Setup the alternative hypothesis to test the claim that there is a difference in the mean price of
midrange homes of the two cities.
A. µa - µb = 0
B. µa - µb ≠ 0
C. µa - µb > 0

Topic: Two independent population means 1-931 Chapter 01 - An Introduction to Business Statistics 140. Suppose that a realtor is interested in comparing the price of midrange homes in two
cities in a Midwestern state. She conducts a small survey in the two cities looking at the price
of midrange homes. Assume equal population variances. Test the claim at
= .01 where the pooled variance = 4335357.143.

Topic: Two independent population means 1-932 Chapter 01 - An Introduction to Business Statistics 141. Suppose that a realtor is interested in comparing the price of midrange homes in two
cities in a Midwestern state. She conducts a small survey in the two cities looking at the price
of midrange homes. Assume equal population variances. Calculate the 95% confidence interval where pooled variance = 4335357.143
A. (649.24 5150.76)
B. (-1566.21 7366.21)
C. (675.46 5124.54)
D. (-766.67 6566.67)
