Finding the test statistic and p-value


Discuss the below:

Q1 Calculate the test statistic and p-value for each sample.
a. H0: π ≥ .50 versus H1: π < .50, α = .025, p = .60, n = 90

Q2 The recent default rate on all student loans is 5.2 percent. In a recent random sample of 300 loans at private universities there were 9 defaults. (a) Does this sample show sufficient evidence that the private university loan default rate is below the rate for all universities, using a left-tailed test at α = .01? (b) Calculate the p-value. (c) Verify that the assumption of normality is justified.

Q3 Find the p-value for each test statistic.
Two-tailed test, z=−1.69

Q4 Calculate the test statistic and p-value for each sample. State the conclusion for the specified α.
b. H0: μ ≥ 200 versus H1: μ < 200, α = .05, ¯x = 198, s = 5, n = 25

Q5 In 2004, a small dealership leased 21 Chevrolet Impalas on 2-year leases. When the cars were returned in 2006, the mileage was recorded (see below). Is the dealer's mean significantly greater than the national average of 30,000 miles for 2-year leased vehicles, using the 10 percent level of significance? Mileage
