The average speed of a volleyball serve is 57 miles per hour. Natalie practiced a new technique to improve her serving speed. Her coach recorded the speed of 36 random serves during practice and found that her average speed using the new technique was 58.9 miles per hour, with a standard deviation of 2.8 miles per hour.

Part A: State the correct hypotheses if Natalie is trying to prove the new technique is an improvement over the old technique.

Part B: Identify the correct test and check the appropriate conditions.

a) Null hypothesis: H₀ : μ = 57

Alternative hypothesis  H₁ : μ ≠ 57

b) The calculated value t =4.077 > 1.6896 at 99% of confidence degrees of freedom.

Natalie is trying to prove the new technique is an improvement over the old technique.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step:-(i)

The average speed of a volleyball serve is 57 miles per hour.

μ = 57 miles per hour

Average speed using the new technique was 58.9 miles per hour, with a standard deviation of 2.8 miles per hour.

sample mean x⁻ = 58.9 miles per hour

Standard deviation S = 2.8 miles per hour.

Step:-(ii)

Null hypothesis: H₀ : μ = 57

Alternative hypothesis  H₁ : μ ≠ 57

Degrees of freedom γ=n-1

   The test statistic          

t = 4.077

Degrees of freedom γ=n-1 = 35-1 =34

tₐ = 2.0322

The calculated value t =4.077 > 1.6896 at 99% of confidence degrees of freedom.

The Natalie is not trying to prove the new technique is an improvement over the old technique.

for me what is finding a good play list and going out because i can not lay down and relax so i usually go to a coffee shop. i also use the gum trick and this actually works. another advice is highlighting subjects it really does me remember certain things
