The average college student pays $20,335 per year in tuition. In order to see if Iowa State costs are less than the national average, a random sample of 100 ISU students is taken. Your sample of 100 students pays an average of $18,856 and has a sample standard deviation of $8,750. • When you run a hypothesis test you obtain the following output… t-stat -2.83 p-value t 0.006 P-value < t 0.003 P-value > t 0.997 What can you conclude about ISU tuition costs?
The situation You are DISH Network. You are trying to decide whether to offer a new sports channel. You are willing to offer it if it seems to have a customer ranking of at least 7.5 (out of 10).
Basics • What is the population? • What is your parameter? • You are DISH Network. You are trying to decide whether to offer a new sports channel. You are willing to offer it if it seems to have a customer ranking of at least 7.5 (out of 10).
You are DISH Network. You are trying to decide whether to offer a new sports channel. You are willing to offer it if it seems to have a customer ranking of at least 7.5 (out of 10). • You decide to take a sample of 125 of your customers. • What type of sample should you take? • Can you still make assumptions even if the population distribution is non-normal?
Null and Alternative Hypothesis • You are DISH Network. You are trying to decide whether to offer a new sports channel. You are willing to offer it if it seems to have a customer ranking of at least 7.5 (out of 10). What is your Null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis?
Confidence interval • You are DISH Network. You are trying to decide whether to offer a new sports channel. You are willing to offer it if it seems to have a customer ranking of at least 7.5 (out of 10). You take a 125-customer random sample • Your sample yields an average of a 6.8 rating. Your sample standard deviation is 2.15. • Create a 95% confidence interval for the population parameter.
HypothesisTest • You are DISH Network. You are trying to decide whether to offer a new sports channel. You are willing to offer it if it seems to have a customer ranking of at least 7.5 (out of 10). You take a 125-customer random sample You perform a hypothesis test with on your hypothesis based on your sample and these are the test results… t-stat = -3.64 p-value < t = 0.043 p-value > t = 0.957 p-value t = 0.086
Conclusion • Are you going to offer this new sports channel? • Using confidence interval • Using your hypothesis test
