Justin wants to know whether a commonly prescribed drug does improve the attention span of students with attention deficit disorder (ADD). He knows that the mean attention span for students with ADD who are not taking the drug is 2.3 minutes long. His sample of 12 students taking the drug yielded a mean of 4.6 minutes. Justin can find no information regarding σx , so he calculated s2x =1.96. a. Identify the independent and dependent variables. b. In a sentence, state the null hypothesis being tested. c. Using symbols, state the null and alternative hypotheses. d. Determine the critical region using a one-tailed test with alpha = .05. e .Conduct the hypothesis test (Do the math and compare the t-critical and t-obtained values). f. State your conclusions in terms of H0 (Should you reject the H0 or fail to reject/accept the H0). g. Based on your analysis, is there a relationship between the drug and attention span?
Women are recommended to consume 1790 calories per day. You suspect that the average calorie intake is smaller for women at your college. The data for the 15 women who participated in the study is shown below: 1959, 1908, 1789, 1544, 1805, 1656, 1899, 1811, 1686, 1688, 1687, 1943, 1612, 1789, 1467 Assuming that the distribution is normal, what can be concluded at the α = 0.05 level of significance? For this study, we should use The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0: H1: The test statistic = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is α Based on this, we should the null hypothesis. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... The data suggest the population mean is not significantly less than 1790 at α = 0.05, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean calorie intake for women at your college is equal to 1790. The data suggest the populaton…
