A typical college student drinks an average of 96 ounces per day of various beverages that contain caffeine. A sample of 12 students at Wallace College revealed the following amounts of beverages consumed containing caffeine:
\n" ); document.write( "108 96 84 84 120 96 108 132 72 120 72 96
\n" ); document.write( "Can we conclude that the average amount of beverages consumed containing caffeine at Ownes College is the same as the typical college student? Use the hypothesis testing procedure.
\n" ); document.write( "a. State the null and alternate hypotheses.
\n" ); document.write( "H0: u = 96
\n" ); document.write( "H1: u # 96
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "b. State the decision rule.
\n" ); document.write( "Reject Ho is the test statistic is < -1.96 or > +1.96.
\n" ); document.write( "_______________________________________________________________________
\n" ); document.write( "Compute the mean and standard deviation.
\n" ); document.write( "x-bar = 99
\n" ); document.write( "std = 19.23
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "e. Compute the value of the test statistic.
\n" ); document.write( "t(99) = (99-96)/[19.23/sqrt(12)] = 0.5404
\n" ); document.write( "f. Formulate the decision rule.
\n" ); document.write( "Since the test statistic is not in either reject interval
\n" ); document.write( "fail to reject Ho.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
