Student learning outcomes
The student will select the appropriate distributions to use in each case.
The student will conduct hypothesis tests and interpret the results.
Television survey
In a recent survey, it was stated that Americans watch television on average four hours per day. Assume that
σ = 2. Using your class as the sample, conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the average for students at your school is lower.

Graph:
Determine the
p -value.
Do you or do you not reject the null hypothesis? Why?
Write a clear conclusion using a complete sentence.
Language survey
About 42.3% of Californians and 19.6% of all Americans over age five speak a language other than English at home. Using your class as the sample, conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the percent of the students at your school who speak a language other than English at home is different from 42.3%.

the normal temperature is 37°c or 98.6 °Fahrenheit is important for maintaining the homeostasis in the body
the body regular this temperature through the process called thermoregulation which involves brain skin muscle and other organ working together to maintain stable internal temperature
