Probabilityassumption of a mean weight of 139 lb the boat was rated to carry 60 passengers so the load limit was 8 340 lb After the boat sank the assumed mean weight for similar boats was changed from 139 lb to 171 lb Complete parts a and b below a Assume that a similar boat is loaded with 60 passengers and assume that the weights of people are normally distributed with a mean of 181 3 lb and a standard deviation of 36 9 lb Find the probability that the boat is overloaded because the 60 passengers have a mean weight greater than 139 lb The probability is Round to four decimal places as needed

ProbabilityA credit card company claims that the mean credit card debt for individuals is greater than 4 900 You want to test this claim You find that a random sample of 37 cardholders has a mean credit card balance of 5 046 and a standard deviation of 650 At a 0 01 can you support the claim Complete parts a through e below Assume the population is normally distributed What is are the critical value s to to 2 435 Use a comma to separate answers as needed Round to three decimal places as needed Determine the rejection region s Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box es within your choice Round to three decimal places as needed OA t C t B t and t D t 2 435 c Find the standardized test statistic t t 1 37 Round to two decimal places as needed d Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis A Reject Ho because the test statistic is not in the rejection region B Fail to reject Ho because the test statistic is not in the rejection region C Fail to reject Ho because the test statistic is in the rejection region OD Reject Ho because the test statistic is in the rejection region e Interpret the decision in the context of the original claim OA At the 1 level of significance there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean credit card debt is greater than 4 900 OB At the 1 level of significance there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean credit card debt is less than 4 900 OC At the 1 level of significance there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean credit card debt is less than 4 900 OD At the 1 level of significance there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean credit card debt is greater than 4 900
