An ultra-pasteurization process requires that cans of nutritional drinks be heated to 138 degrees Celsius.  If the temperature of the cans achieved is Normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.5 degrees Celsius, what must the mean (µ) temperature for the process be in order to ensure that 99% of all cans are properly heated to 138 degrees Celsius?  (round to 2 decimal places)

  Ho: p = 0.15  H1: p ≠ 0.15  n = 100  α = 0.05   Sample proportion = 0.20     What is the value of the test statistic? (Round to 2 decimal places)

      Based on the StatCrunch output, what is the margin of error in the estimate?

According to the authors of your textbook, if the population proportion is 0.10, the Normal distribution will provide a good approximation for the sampling distribution of as long as:

Suppose you are conducting the one-sample T test for a mean for which the alternative hypothesis is HA: µ > 100.  If the sample size is 30 and the significance level is 0.01 (1%), what is the critical value of t? (Round to two decimal places)
