In 1960, census results indicated that the age at which men in a certain region first married had a mean of 24.5 years. It is widely suspected that young people today are waiting longer to get married. We want to find out if the mean age of first marriage has increased from 24.5 years since then. A) Write appropriate hypotheses
B) The 40 men in our sample first married at an average age of 25.4 years, with a sample standard deviation s of 5.3 years. Calculate the test statistic t. What's the P-value for this result?
C) Describe the approximate sampling distribution model for the mean age in such samples.
D) We plan to test our hypothesis by selecting a random sample of 40 men who married for the first time last year. Do you think the necessary assumptions for inference are satisfied? Explain.
E) Explain (in context) what this P-value means.
F) What's your conclusion?

Recall that the owner of a local health food store recently started a new ad campaign to attract more business and wants to know if average daily sales have increased. historically average daily sales were approximately $2,700. the upper bound of the 95% range of likely sample means for this one-sided test is approximately $2,843.44. if the owner took a random sample of forty-five days and found that daily average sales were now $2,984, what can she conclude at the 95% confidence level?
