TABLE 9-1
Microsoft Excel Was Used on a Set 0.100.10

question 158

Short Answer

TABLE 9-1
Microsoft Excel was used on a set of data involving the number of parasites found on 46 Monarch butterflies captured in Pismo Beach State Park. A biologist wantsto know if the mean number of parasites per butterfly is over 20 . She will make her decision usinga test witha level of significance of 0.100.10 . The following informationwas extracted from the Microsoft Excel outputfor the sample of 46 Monarchbutterflies:

n=46; Arithmetic Mean =28.00; Standard Deviation =25.92; Standard Error =3.82; Null Hypothesis:H0:μ20.000;α=0.10;df=45;T Test Statistic=2.09; One-Tailed Test Upper Critical Value=1.3006; p-value=0.021; Decision = Reject.\begin{array}{llcc} \hline n=46 ; \text { Arithmetic Mean }=28.00 ; \text { Standard Deviation }=25.92 ; \text { Standard Error }=3.82 ; \\\text { Null Hypothesis:} H_{0}: \mu \leq 20.000 ; \alpha=0.10 ; d f=45 ; T \text { Test Statistic} = 2.09;\\\text { One-Tailed Test Upper Critical Value} =1.3006 ;\text { p-value} =0.021 ; \text { Decision = Reject.}\\\hline\end{array}


-Referring to Table 9-1, the power of the test is_____ if the mean number of parasites per butterfly on Monarch butterflies in Pismo Beach State Park is 24 using a 0.1 level of significance and assuming that the population standard deviation is 25.92.
