12. The SAT scores of entering freshmen at a certain university have mean 1215 and standard deviation 110. A random sample of 100 freshmen is taken and $\overline{x}$, the sample mean of their SAT scores, is computed. The probability that $\overline{x}$ less than 1190 is (A) 0.0116 (B) 0.1335 (C) 0.4090 (D) 0.4562 (E) 0.1628

(C) Central limit theorem only applies when sampling from Normal populations. (D) None of the above.

15. A professor of statistics refutes the claim that the average student spends 3 hours studying for the midterm exam. The professor thinks the students spend more time than that. Which hypotheses are used to test the claim? (A) \( H_0: \mu \leq 3 \) vs. \( H_a: \mu > 3 \) (B) \( H_0: \mu = 3 \) vs. \( H_a: \mu \neq 3 \) (C) \( H_0: \mu \neq 3 \) vs. \( H_a: \mu = 3 \) (D) \( H_0: \mu = 3 \) vs. \( H_a: \mu < 3 \) (E) \( H_0: \mu \geq 3 \) vs. \( H_a: \mu = 3 \)

16. We test the null hypothesis $H_0: \mu=10$ and the alternative $H_a: \mu<10$, for a normal population with $\sigma=4$. A random sample of 16 observations is drawn from the population and we find the sample mean of these observations is 12. The $p$-value is closest to (A) 0.0228 (B) 0.0456 (C) 0.1016 (D) 0.9772 (E) 0.9999

17. The nicotine content in cigarettes of a certain brand is normally distributed, with mean (in milligrams) and standard deviation $\sigma = 0.1$. The brand advertises that the mean nicotine content of its cigarettes is 1.5, but measurements on a random sample of 100 cigarettes of this brand give a mean of $\overline{x} = 1.53$. Is this evidence that the mean nicotine content is actually higher than advertised? To answer this, test the hypotheses $H_0: \mu = 1.5, H_a: \mu > 1.5$ at the 5% significance level. You conclude (A) That \( H_0 \) should be rejected. (B) That \( H_0 \) should not be rejected. (C) That \( H_{a} \) should be rejected. (D) There is a \( 5\% \) chance that the null hypothesis is true. (E) There is a \( 5\% \) chance that the alternative hypothesis is true.

18. A certain population follows a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma = 2.5$. You collect data and test the hypotheses $H_0: \mu = 1, H_a: \mu \neq 1$. You obtain a p-value of 0.022. Which of the following is true? (A) A \( 90\% \) confidence interval for \( \mu \) will include the value 1. (B) A \( 95\% \) confidence interval for \( \mu \) will include the value 1. (C) A \( 95\% \) confidence interval for \( \mu \) will include the value 0. (D) A \( 99\% \) confidence interval for \( \mu \) will include the value 1. (E) A \( 99\% \) confidence interval for \( \mu \) will include the value 0.

19. Suppose that the significant level of a statistical hypothesis test is $\alpha$. The null hypothesis will be rejected when: (A) \( p \)-value \( \leq \alpha \) (B) \( p \)-value \( >\alpha \) (C) \( p \)-value \( \leq \alpha / 2 \) (D) \( p \)-value \( >\alpha / 2 \) (E) \( p \)-value \( = \frac{\alpha}{2} \)

20. The average monthly rent for one-bedroom apartments in Chattanooga has been $700. Because of the downturn in the real estate market, it is believed that there has been a decrease in the average rental. The correct hypotheses to be tested are (A) \( H_0: \mu \geq 700 \) v.s. \( H_a: \mu < 700 \) (B) \( H_0: \mu = 700 \) v.s. \( H_a: \mu \neq 700 \) (C) \( H_0: \mu > 700 \) v.s. \( H_a: \mu \leq 700 \) (D) \( H_0: \mu < 700 \) v.s. \( H_a: \mu \geq 700 \) (E) \( H_0: \mu < 700 \) v.s. \( H_a: \mu > 700 \)
