QUESTION #1

A random sample of 41 adult coyotes in a region of northern Minnesota showed the average age to be x = 2.09 years, with sample standard deviation s = 0.88 years. However, it is thought that the overall population mean age of coyotes is μ = 1.75. Do the sample data indicate that coyotes in this region of northern Minnesota tend to live longer than the average of 1.75 years? Use α = 0.01.

A What is the level of significance?

B What is the value of the sample test statistic? Round your answer to three decimal places.

QUESTION # 2

Pyramid Lake is on the Paiute Indian Reservation in Nevada. The lake is famous for cutthroat trout. Suppose a friend tells you that the average length of trout caught in Pyramid Lake is μ = 19 inches. However, a survey reported that of a random sample of 51 fish caught, the mean length was x = 18.4 inches, with estimated standard deviation s = 3.5 inches. Do these data indicate that the average length of a trout caught in Pyramid Lake is less than μ = 19 inches? Use α = 0.05.

A What is the level of significance?

B What is the value of the sample test statistic? Round your answer to three decimal places.
