A simple random sample of 41 men from a normally distributed population results in a standard deviation of 10.7 beats per minute. The normal range of pulse rates of adults is typically given as 60 to 100 beats per minute. If the range rule of thumb is applied to that normal​ range, the result is a standard deviation of 10 beats per minute. Use the sample results with a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that pulse rates of men have a standard deviation equal to 10 beats per minute. Complete parts​(a) through​ (d) below. a. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses.
b. Compute the test statistic; χ2 = ___ ​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
c. Find the​ P-value; ​P-value = ​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed.)
d. State the conclusion. (choose one from each ( x, y) set)
(Do not reject, Reject) Upper H0​, because the​ P-value is (greater than, less than, or equal to) the level of significance. There is
(sufficient, insufficient) evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the standard deviation of​ men's pulse rates is equal to
10 beats per minute.

H0 : σ²=10²

H1 : σ²>10²

χ² = 45.796

Pvalue = 0.2442

Do not reject H0 because Pvalue is greater Than significance level

There is insufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the standard deviation of​ men's pulse rates is equal to 10 beats per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Sample size, n = 41

Sample standard deviation, s = 10.7

Population standard deviation, σ = 10

Significance level, α = 0.10

The Hypothesis :

H0 : σ²=10²

H1 : σ²>10²

Using the χ² test for population variance :

The test statistic, χ² = (n-1)*s²/σ²

χ² = (41 - 1) * 10.7²/ 10²

χ² = (40 * 114.49) / 100

χ² = 4579.6 / 100

χ² = 45.796

The Pvalue ;

df = n - 1 ; 41 - 1 = 40

Pvalue(45.796, 40) = 0.2442

Since Pvalue > α ; WE fail to reject H0

Do not reject H0 because Pvalue is greater Than significance level

There is insufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the standard deviation of​ men's pulse rates is equal to 10 beats per minute.

option (b) is correct

step-by-step explanation:

to find the solution of this system, we need to convert it into reduced row-echelon form. we have,

after applying row operations r2 -> r2/2 and r3 -> r3/3, we get,
