Determine the critical region and critical value that are used in the classical approach for testing the null hypothesis
Six measurements were made of the mineral content (in percent) of spinach, with the following results. It is reasonable to assume that the population is approximately normal.
You have been studying a population of bluebirds. You visited the site each summer and counted the number of birds. You data are as follows:

A one mean Z test is designed to determine whether a. A statistic differs from some specified value.
On a sunny day the probability of hitting bullseye using a bow and arrow is .9. On non sunny days it is .7. Assume the individual shots are independent.
Equivalence testing is carried out by performing two hypothesis tests, allowing a modified version of the null hypothesis to be accepted. The modified version of the null hypothesis is accepted if:
What is the two-sided 95% confidence interval for the population mean given the following sample: x=0,2,3,5?
Which of the following would increase our chances of rejecting a false null hypothesis?

Assume the mean of men height 69 in and the standard deviation 2.8 and the women mean is 63.6. The standard deviation 2.5. What are the percentage of men with height that exceed the length of a day be
Compare the dotplot to a histogram of the data. (choose all that apply.) Dotplots show the frequency of individual data values. The raw data can be retrieved from the histogram, but not the dotplot.
