Suppose that an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) representative claims that the average tax deduction for medical care is $1,250, and assume that this variable is normally distributed. A taxpayer who believes that the deduction might be less than $1,250 decides to randomly sample 12 families who have an average deduction of $934 with a standard deviation of $616. a. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? b. What is the value of the test statistic, i. e. t-stat, in this example? Show your work. c. What is the p-value associated with this test statistic? (HINT: you have less than 30 observations so you will need to use t-table to obtain critical values.) d. What can you conclude at the 10-percent level of significance? What can you conclude at the 5-percent level of significance? Explain. (HINT: you have less than 30 observations so you will need to use t-table to obtain critical values.)

It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the average number of minutes per day that people spend standing or walking. among mildly obese people, the mean number of minutes of daily activity (standing or walking) is approximately normally distributed with mean 376 minutes and standard deviation 64 minutes. the mean number of minutes of daily activity for lean people is approximately normally distributed with mean 528 minutes and standard deviation 107 minutes. a researcher records the minutes of activity for an srs of 7 mildly obese people and an srs of 7 lean people. use z-scores rounded to two decimal places to answer the following: what is the probability (image for it appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the averag0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes? what is the probability (image for it appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. one study looked at the averag0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 420 minutes?
