    Module 4. Hypothesis Testing Tools

    1. The document is an assignment on hypothesis testing from Holy Angel University. It contains two problems analyzing statistical data and testing hypotheses. 2. The first problem examines whether the average number of copies made per day by a copier machine operator is different than the claimed average of 5000. After conducting a z-test, the null hypothesis that the average is 5000 is rejected, as the evidence shows the average is actually higher. 3. The second problem looks at whether the average hours college students spend on Facebook per week is different than the reported 30 hours. A z-test again rejects the null hypothesis, finding the evidence proves the average time spent is actually lower than 30 hours.

    Read and understand the problems carefully. Work on the problems and follow the step-by
    step procedures - from null hypothesis to recommendations.

    1. A copier machine operator claimed that he makes an average number of copies of at


    least 5000 per day with standard deviation of 75 copies. To make sure that he has
    enough supplies and understocking, he monitored the number of copies he produced
    for 30 days which was noted at an average of 5105. At a .05 level of significance, is
    the average number of copies produced per day is different from 5000?

    Null Hypothesis:
    The average number of copies made in a day is 5000.

    Alternative hypothesis:
    The average number of copies made in a day is different from 5000.

    Level of Significance:
    .05/2 = 0.025

    Critical z-value:
    = +1.96

    Normal Curve:

    -1.96 +1.96
    Decision Rule:
    Reject null hypothesis if Z<-1.96 or Z>+1.96; otherwise, do not reject null hypothesis.

    Computation:
    Z = (xbar - )/ (δ/ √n)ɥ
    = (5105 – 5000) / (75/√30)
    = 105/13.693
    = 7.67

    Conclusion:
    Reject hypothesis, 7.67>1.96. That is, there is enough evidence to support that the
    average number of copies made in a day is more than 5000.

    Recommendation:
    Based on the findings, the operator should raise the number of supplies he can produce every
    day to avoid understocking and to ensure that there will be enough supplies.

    2. A Social Media Agency reported that college students spent an average of 30 hours per
    week on Facebook with standard deviation of 2.5 hours. To find out if this still true, a
    new survey was conducted among 50 students and reported an average of 28 hours
    spent on Facebook. At a .01 level of significance, is there average number of hours
    which college students spent on Facebook different from 30 hours?

    Null hypothesis:
    The average hour spent on Facebook by college student per week is 30 hours.

    Alternative hypothesis:
    The average hour that the college student spent on Facebook per week is different from
    30 hours.

    Level of Significance
    0.01/2 = 0.005

    Critical z-value:
    = +2.575

    Normal Curve:

    -2.575 +2.575
    Statistical Analysis with Software Application
    HOLY ANGEL UNIVERSITY

    Decision Rule:
    Reject null hypothesis if Z<-2.575 or Z>+2.575; otherwise, do not reject null
    hypothesis.

    Computation:
    Z = (xbar - )/ (δ/ √n)ɥ
    = (28 – 30) / (2.5/√50)
    = -2/0.36
    = -5.66

    Conclusion:
    Reject null hypothesis, -5.66<-2.575; which means that there is enough evidence to
    prove that the number of hours college students spend on Facebook is different from 30 hours.

    Recommendation:
    This shows that the average hours spent by college students on Facebook is different
    from 30, which equates to a full day of their lives being consumed every week for the primary
    intention of utilizing social media. Also, students must limit their usage of gadgets as this could
    affect them negatively and focus on their studies instead.
