Suppose that a recent article stated that the mean time spent in jail by a first-time convicted burglar is 2.5 years. A study was then done to see if the mean time has increased in the new century. A random sample of 26 first-time convicted burglars in a recent year was picked. The mean length of time in jail from the survey was 3 years with a standard deviation of 1.8 years. Suppose that it is somehow known that the population standard deviation is 1.5. If you were conducting a hypothesis test to determine if the mean length of jail time has increased, what would the null and alternative hypotheses be? The distribution of the population is normal.(a) null hypothesis H0: μ = 2.5 yearsH0: μ = 3 years H0: μ > 3 yearsH0: μ ≥ 2.5 yearsH0: μ = 1.8 years(b) alternative hypothesis Ha: μ ≠ 2.5 yearsHa: μ > 3 years Ha: μ ≥ 1.8 yearsHa: μ ≤ 3 yearsHa: μ > 2.5 years

Needmax recorded the heights of 500 male humans. he found that the heights were normally distributed around a mean of 177 centimeters. which statements about max’s data must be true? a) the median of max’s data is 250 b) more than half of the data points max recorded were 177 centimeters. c) a data point chosen at random is as likely to be above the mean as it is to be below the mean. d) every height within three standard deviations of the mean is equally likely to be chosen if a data point is selected at random.
