The owner of a large car dealership believes that the financial crisis decreased the number of customers visiting her dealership. The dealership has historically had 800 customers per day. The owner takes a sample of 100 days and finds the average number of customers visiting the dealership per day was 750. Assume that the population standard deviation is 350. The value of the test statistic is ____________. Multiple Choice z = –1.429 t99 = 1.429 z = 1.429 t99 = –1.429

Answer:

Z= -1.429

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The owner thinks that the number of customers decreased. The hystorical average per day is 800 customers.

So the variable X: " Customers per day" X~N(μ;σ²)

σ= 350

Symbolically the test hypothesis are:

H₀: μ ≥ 800

H₁: μ < 800

The statistic value is:

Since you are studying the population sample, the study variable has a normal distribution and you know the value of the population variance, the propper statistic to make the test is:

Z= X[bar] - μ = 750 - 800 = -1.4285 ≅ -1.429

     σ/√n           350/√100

where X[bar] is the sample mean

μ is the population mean under the null hypothesis

σ is the population standard  

n is the sample taken

The value is Z= -1.429

I hope it helps!
