A doctor is concerned that a drug treatment causes people to run a fever. She recruited n=50 participants and gave them the drug treatment. She then measured their body temp 12 hours later. She wants to compare the average temp of her sample to the population average body temp of 98.6 to see if the participants temperature is significantly different. Which statistical test should she use?
Carl Catcher has a batting average of .370, meaning that he makes a hit 37% of the times he is up at bat. Pete Pitcher has a batting averager of only .110. Let x be the number of times Carol comes up to bat and let y be the number of times Pete comes to bat. a. If Carl bats 7 times and Pete bats 3 times, what should ther overall batting average be? b. If a total of 50 times at bat, how many times may Pete bat in order for their combined average to be as close as possible to .300? (define 3 variables, write system and solve)

You put n = 20 rats in a cage that is in a room with a 65-degree temperature. The next day you put them in a cage with a 70-degree temperature. On the final day of the study you put them in a cage with a 75-degree temperature. For each of the three days, you measure how many minutes of each hour they spent running on their exercise wheel. To compare the time they spent running on the wheel between the three different days (in other words, between the three different temperatures of 65, 70, and 75 degrees), what kind of hypothesis test should you do? One-Factor, Independent-Measures ANOVA One-Factor, Repeated-Measures ANOVA Correlation/Regression Chi-Square Goodness of Fit
