    The document contains 4 statistical problems involving hypothesis testing using sample data and Excel files. Problem 1 asks whether a university can conclude the mean retirement age is 70 based on a sample mean of 68.4 and standard deviation of 3.6. Problem 2 involves testing hypotheses about transportation survey data in an Excel file. Problem 3 tests if the proportion of nonconforming hotel rooms is less than 2% using inspection data. Problem 4 tests hypotheses about differences in average lengths of service using call center employee data.

    1. (#6, p.

    228) A university believes that the average retirement age among


    faculty is now 70 instead of 65. A sample of 85 faculty found that the average
    of their expected retirement age is 68.4 with a standard deviation of 3.6. Can
    University conclude that the mean retirement age now eqauls70?
    2. (#16, p. 229) Using the data in the Excel file Consumer Transportation
    survey, test the following null hypothesis:
    a. Individuals spend at least 8 hours per week in their vehicles
    b. Individuals drive an average of 600 miles per week
    c. The average age of SUV drivers in no greater than 35
    d. At least 80% of individuals are satisfied with their vehicles
    3. (#14, p. 229) The Excel file Room Inspection provides data for 100 room
    inspections at each of 25 hotels in a major chain. Management would like the
    proportion of nonconforming rooms to be less than 2%. Test an appropriate
    hypothesis to determine if management can make this claim.
    4. (#23, p. 229) The director of human resources for a large bank has compiled
    data on about 70 former employees at one of the banks call centers (see the
    Excel file Call Center Data). For each of the following, assume equal variances
    of the two populations.
    a. Test the null hypothesis that the average length of service for males is
    the same as for females.
    b. Test the null hypothesis that the average length of service for
    individuals without prior call center experience is the same as those
    with experience.
    c. Test the null hypothesis that the average length of service for
    individuals with a college degree is the same as for individuals without
    a college degree.
    d. Now conduct tests of hypotheses for equality of variances. Were your
    assumptions of equal variances valid? If not, repeat the test(s) for
    means using the unequal variance test.
