Are America's top chief executive officers (CEOs) really worth all that money? One way to answer this question is to look at row B, the annual company percentage increase in revenue, versus row A, the CEO's annual percentage salary increase in that same company. Suppose that a random sample of companies yielded the following data: B : Percent for company 2 5 29 8 21 14 13 12 A: Percent for CEO -1 5 21 13 12 18 9 8 Do these data indicate that the population mean percentage increase in corporate revenue (row B) is different from the population mean percentage increase in CEO salary? Use a 1% level of significance. Will you use a left tailed, right tailed, or two tailed test?

105 107 86 100 106 103 85 102 106 99 127 100 109 100 Assume that the hay fever rate in each age group has an approximately normal distribution. Do the data indicate that the age group over 50 has a lower rate of hay fever? Use 0.05. If 0.10 < P-value < 0.20, will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? Are the data statistically significant at confidence level ?
