Analysis of the amount of histamine content in nanograms of the venom of 7 eight

Question

Analysis of the amount of histamine content in nanograms of the venom of 7 eight-day- old worker bees yielded a sample average X 638 and a sample standard deviation S- 201, Answer the following with regards to testing Ho : ? 600 versus Ha : ? 600 8. a) Compute the appropriate test statistic and the rejection region(s) b) What is the p-value for the test? Explain in a sentence what the meaning of a p-value is. 0.05, what is the conclusion of the test? Explain in At the level of significance words what this means regarding the hypotheses. c)

Explanation / Answer

SolutionA:

two tail t test

t=xbar-mu/s/aqrt(n)

t=638-600/201/sqrt(7)

t=0.500

Rejection Region:

if p<0.05 Reject null Hypothesis

if p>0.05 Fail to reject null hypothesis

SolutionB:

df=n-1=7-1=6

alpha=0.05

p=0.6349

Solutionc:

alpha=0.05

p=0.6349

p>0.05

Do not reject null hypothesis.
Accept null hyothesis.

there is sufficient evidence at 5% level of significance to concude that the mean is 600.

Solutiond:

p=0.6349

p>0.01

Fail to reject Null hypothesis.

Accept null hypothesis.

There is sufficient evidence at 1% level of significance to conclude that the mean is 600.
