Question 37

Multiple Choice

Use the following information for questions:
An airport official wants to assess if the flights from one airline (Airline 1) are less delayed than flights from another airline (Airline 2) . Let µ1µ_1 = average delay for Airline 1 and µ2µ_2 = average delay for Airline 2. A random sample of 10 flights for Airline 1 shows an average of 9.5 minutes delay with a standard deviation of 3 minutes. A random sample of 10 flights for Airline 2 shows an average of 12.63 minutes delay with a standard deviation of 3 minutes. Assume delay times are normally distributed, but do not assume the population variances are equal. Use the conservative "by hand" estimate for the degrees of freedom.
-For a significance level of α\alpha = 0.05, are the results statistically significant?


A) No, results are not statistically significant because the p-value < 0.05.
B) Yes, results are statistically significant because the p-value < 0.05.
C) No, results are not statistically significant because the p-value > 0.05
D) Yes, results are statistically significant because the p-value > 0.05.
