• ANOVA
• Z-test

Group of answer choices

• None of the other answers are correct
• Mean delivery time is less than 0.05
• Mean delivery time is more than 25 minutes
• Mean delivery time is less than or equal to 25 minutes

Question 3       3 pts

Based on the sample, is there sufficient evidence in the data to conclude that the population average time to deliver a pizza, once the order is placed, is greater than 25 minutes? Based on the statistical analysis (with margin of error = 5%) what is your conclusion? [Save the script to the data file]

Group of answer choices

• We accept the null hypothesis and hence conclude that the delivery time is more than 25 min.
• We could not conclude anything
• We reject the null hypothesis, and hence conclude that the delivery time is more than 25 min
• We could not reject the null hypothesis, and hence conclude the mean delivery time is less than 25 min

Question 5      3 pts

Given the sample data, what kind of statistical test would you perform in order to find out if the days of the week have an effect on the mean delivery time?

Question 6     3 pts

Based on executing the test in Question 5, what would you conclude, given a margin of error of 5%?

Group of answer choices

• We reject the null hypothesis; the mean delivery time is different at least on one of the days of the week
• We reject the null hypothesis; the mean delivery time is different for every day of the week
• We accept the null hypothesis; the mean delivery time is not different for different days of the week
• We could not reject the null hypothesis; the mean delivery time is not different for different days of the week

Question 7     3 pts

• Mean delivery times on Saturday and Thursday are different
• Mean delivery times on Tuesday and Wednesday are different
• All of the answers are correct

Question 8      3 pts

Group of answer choices

• Nothing can be concluded as additional information is necessary
• Mean delivery time is different on the 9th and 10th hour of the day
• Mean delivery time does not vary by the hour of the day
• Mean delivery time is different at every hour of the day
