8.A Type I error is

14.The one-sample t statistic from a sample of n = 23 observations for the one-sided test of

H0: ? = 15, Ha: ? > 15

has the value t = 2.24. Based on this information

You may not use the t procedure, because t procedures are robust to non-Normality for confidence intervals but not for tests of hypotheses

5. A radio show conducts a phone-in survey each morning. Listeners are asked to call in with a response to the question of the day. One morning in 2011, listeners were asked if they supported or opposed term limits for members of Congress. Remarkably, 88% of listeners that called in favored term limits. We may safely conclude that
A. there is overwhelming approval for Congressional term limits among Americans generally.
B. it is unlikely that if all Americans were asked their opinion, the results would differ from that obtained in the poll.
C. there is strong evidence that the majority of Americans believe that there should be Congressional term limits.
D. nothing, except that a great majority of those with strong enough feelings on the issue to call in are in favor of Congressional term limits. We cannot generalize any of this survey\'s results to any larger population.

Solution

5.

D. nothing, except that a great majority of those with strong enough feelings on the issue to call in are in favor of Congressional term limits. We cannot generalize any of this survey\'s results to any larger population.

The callers may/may not be a good representation of the population. Also, we don\'t know how many called, as the sample size here many not be sufficient as well.
