A regional office of the Internal Revenue Service randomly distributes returns to be audited to the pool of auditors. Over the thousands of returns audited last year, the average amount of extra taxes collected was $356 per audited return. One of the auditors, Jeffrey Jones, is suspected of being too lenient with persons whose returns are being audited. For a simple random sample of 30 of the returns audited by Mr. Jones last year, an average of $340 in extra taxes was collected. Required:
Assuming a normal population of extra taxes collected with a standard deviation of $90, do the suspicions against Mr. Jones appear to be justified?

The decision rule is

   Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

     There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the justification against Mr. Jones appears not  to be justified

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  

    The sample  size is n  =  30  

     The sample mean is

    The standard deviation is  

    The  null hypothesis is

     The alternative hypothesis is  

Let assume the significance level is

Generally the test statistic is mathematically represented as

=>  

=>  

Generally the sample size from the question is  small that it is not greater than 30  hence we use t-test

Now the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

=>  

=>  

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

Generally from the t-distribution table , the probability of -0.9737 at a degree of freedom of   for a two -tailed  test  is

Hence p-value  is  

From the value we obtained we see that   hence

The decision rule is

   Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

     There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the justification against Mr. Jones appears not  to be justified

part 1 answer = 8

part 2 answer = 72

step-by-step explanation:

part 1 explanation = add all of the numbers, then divide by how many numbers you have. so, 200/25 = 8.

part 2 explanation = not gonna lie, this is hard to explain, so just google how to do it.
