Jeffrey, as an eight-year old, established a mean time of 16.43 seconds for swimming the 25-yard freestyle, with a standard deviation of 0.8 seconds. His dad, Frank, thought that Jeffrey could swim the 25-yard freestyle faster using goggles. Frank bought Jeffrey a new pair of expensive goggles and timed Jeffrey for 15 25-yard freestyle swims. For the 15 swims, Jeffrey's mean time was 16 seconds. Frank thought the goggles helped Jeffrey swim faster than the 16.43 seconds. He performed a hypothesis test Ho : µ = 16.43 versus Ha : µ < 16.43 with α = 0.05 and came up with a P-Value of 0.03. Explain what this​ P-value means. If the mean time for swimming the 25-yard freestyle really is 16.43 seconds and if we randomly collect a sample of size n = 15 swims repeatedly, then 3% of the samples will result in a sample mean as high or higher than the one obtained. If the mean time for swimming the 25-yard freestyle really is 16.43 seconds and if we randomly collect a sample of size n = 15 swims repeatedly, then 3% of the samples will result in a sample mean as low or lower than the one obtained. If the mean time for swimming the 25-yard freestyle really is lower than 16.43 seconds and if we randomly collect a sample of size n = 15 swims repeatedly, then 3% of the samples will result in a sample mean as low or lower than the one obtained. If the mean time for swimming the 25-yard freestyle really is higher than 16.43 seconds and if we randomly collect a sample of size n = 15 swims repeatedly, then 3% of the samples will result in a sample mean as low or lower than the one obtained.

A college football coach records the mean weight that his players can bench press as 275 pounds, with a standard deviation of 55 pounds. Three of his players thought that the mean weight was more than that amount. They asked 30 of their teammates for their estimated maximum lift on the bench press exercise. He performed a hypothesis test Ho : µ = 275 versus Ha : µ > 275 with α = 0.025 and came up with a P-Value of 0.1331. Explain what this​ P-value means. If the mean weight that his players can bench press really is 275 pounds and if we randomly collect a sample of size n = 30 players repeatedly, then approximately 13% of the samples will result in a sample mean as low or lower than the one obtained. If the mean weight that his players can bench press really is more than 275 pounds and if we randomly collect a sample of size n = 30 players repeatedly, then approximately 13% of the samples will result in a sample mean as high or higher than the one obtained. If the mean weight that his players can bench press really is 275 pounds and if we randomly collect a sample of size n = 30 players repeatedly, then approximately 13% of the samples will result in a sample mean as far or farther than the one obtained. If the mean weight that his players can bench press really is 275 pounds and if we randomly collect a sample of size n = 30 players repeatedly, then approximately 13% of the samples will result in a sample mean as high or higher than the one obtained.

The recommended daily allowance of iron for females aged 19-50 is 18 mg/day. A dietitian believes that elderly women (on average) get less than 18 mg/day. The dietitian uses hypothesis testing to check this belief. In this scenario, a Type I error would be: (a) Deciding that elderly women get less than the recommended allowance when they don't. (b) Deciding that elderly women get at least the recommended allowance when they don't.
