For years, the restaurant Tokos’ Tacos had outdoor service at picnic tables.  During that time, the average tip left by customers was $3.20.  Last year, the restaurant expanded and also had indoor seating.  The shop owner collected a sample of 55 bills from last year. The mean tip amount from this new sample was $3.72 with a standard deviation of $2.84. Using a 10% significance level, perform a hypothesis test to see if the mean tip amount increased after the restaurant expanded. a) On your scrap paper, write the hypotheses using appropriate notation. b) Calculate the test statistic, using the formula.  (Type it in the answer box, but show all work on scrap paper.) c)  Find the p-value using StatKey.  (Type it in the answer box.) d)  Write out the conclusion in the context of the problem.  (Type it in the answer box.)

Use this set-up for Problems 48-52: As of April 5, 2021, the average cost of a wedding in Missouri was determined to be $20,058 (according to valuepenguin.com). Suppose the population standard deviation of wedding costs is $7,500. To determine if the average cost of a wedding in Illinois is more than Missouri, you decide to take a sample of 36 weddings and perform a hypothesis test. Suppose your simple random sample had an average cost of $22,333. You decide to use a significance level of 0.05.What hypotheses would be used to determine if the average cost of a wedding in Illinois is more than the average in Missouri?

Use this set-up for Problems 19-21:You choose to park your car in a metered parking spot where the cost of parking for 1 hour is $1.50. The cost of a parking ticket is $15. Historically, the local police only catch one out of every 12 parking violators in a given hour. You are trying to determine if it’s worth paying the meter or if you’d be better off to not pay the meter and just take your chances of getting a parking ticket.Complete the probability table below, under the assumption that you do NOT pay the parking meter. (In other words, the two rows of the table represent the two outcomes–you park for free or you have to pay a parking ticket) Payment Probability _______ ________ _______ ________  Calculate the expected value of your payment in this situation.
