Assuming a population standard deviation of 52 minutes can


The company's cleaning service states that they spend more than 46 minutes each time the cleaning service is there. The company times the length of 37 randomly selected cleaning visits and finds the average is 47.6 minutes. Assuming a population standard deviation of 5.2 minutes, can the company support the cleaning service's claim at α=0.10?

No, since p<α, we reject the null. The claim is the alternative, so the claim is not supported

Yes, since p>α, we fail to reject the null. The claim is the null, so the claim is supported

Yes, since p<α, we reject the null. The claim is the alternative, so the claim is supported

No, since p>α, we fail to reject the null. The claim is the alternative, so the claim is not supported

A customer service phone line claims that the wait times before a call is answered by a service representative is less than 3.3 minutes. In a random sample of 62 calls, the average wait time before a representative answers is 3.26 minutes. The population standard deviation is assumed to be 0.14 minutes. Can the claim be supported at α=0.08?

No, since test statistic is not in the rejection region defined by the critical value, reject the null. The claim is the alternative, so the claim is not supported

No, since test statistic is in the rejection region defined by the critical value, reject the null. The claim is the alternative, so the claim is not supported

Yes, since test statistic is not in the rejection region defined by the critical value, reject the null. The claim is the alternative, so the claim is supported

Yes, since test statistic is in the rejection region defined by the critical value, reject the null. The claim is the alternative, so the claim is supported
