Task 3 Statistics and probability

1. In plant nursery, the owner thinks that the lengths of seedlings in a box
sprayed with a new kind of fertilizer has an average height of 26 cm after 3
days and standard deviation of 10 cm. One researcher randomly selected 80
such seedlings and calculated the mean height to be 20 cm and the standard
deviation was 10 com. Will you conduct two tailed or one tailed test?
Proceed with testing using α = 0.05.
2. D.G Co. has an average gross sales of 37 million per week from their
products in all of their outlets with a standard deviation of 6 million. An area
manager found out that the average gross sales from the 32 outlets under
his jurisdiction is 34.8 million per week. Is the mean sales of the products of
all of the outlets significantly different from the mean sales of the outlets in
the area of the manager? Use α = 5%. Perform the hypothesis testing for
both one tailed and two tailed test.
