A study is done to determine if students in the California state university system take longer to graduate, on average, than students enrolled in private universities. One hundred students from both the California state university system and private universities are surveyed. Suppose that from years of research, it is known that the population standard deviations are 1.5241years and 1 year, respectively. The following data are collected. The California state university system students took on average 4.6 years with a standard deviation of 0.4. The private university students took on average 4.2 years with a standard deviation of 0.3. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level.
1. State the distribution to use for the test. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
N (?, ?)
2. What is the test statistic? (If using thezdistribution round your answer to two decimal places, and if using thetdistribution round your answer to three decimal places.)
z= ?
3.What is thep-value? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
4. Alpha (Enter an exact number as an integer, fraction, or decimal.)? = ?
