question 24

Multiple Choice

A researcher collects data on the distance between college students' high schools and their colleges. He believes that the median distance is 200 miles. A random sample of 15 students yields the following data: $$2525303045455575851101351751958102170$$
At $= .05$ , should the researcher's hypothesis be accepted or rejected?
You may use the following abbreviated table of critical values (two tailed, $= .05$ ) taken from Table J:
$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\hline \mathrm{n} & 11 & 12 & 13 & 14 & 15 & 16 & 17 & 18 & 19 & 20 & 21 & 22 & 23 & 24 & 25 \\\hline \text { critical valuc } & 1 & 2 & 2 & 3 & 3 & 3 & 4 & 4 & 4 & 5 & 5 & 5 & 6 & 6 & 6 \\\hline\end{array}$

• A) Reject because the test value 2 is less than the critical value 3
• B) Do not reject because the test value 4 is less than the critical value 13
• C) Reject because the test value 13 is more than the critical value 3
• D) Do not reject because the test value 13 is more than the critical value 3
