make a decision about the given claim use only


Make a decision about the given claim. Use only the rare event rule, and make subjective estimates to determine whether events are likely. For example, if the claim is that a coin favors heads and sample results consist of 11 head in 20 flips, conclude that there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the coin favors heads (because it is easy to get 11 heads in 20 flips by chance with a fair coin).

Claim: The mean pulse rate (in beats per minute) of students in a large statistics class is greater than 66. A simple random sample of the students has a mean pulse rate of 66.3.
