He randomly selects 100 of the same type of seedling and randomly assigns them to two groups: one that uses the fertilizer, and one that does not. He makes sure the plants all have the same amount of water, soil, and light for two months. At the end of two months, he measures the heights of the plants and finds that the ones receiving the fertilizer are significantly taller. Inferences can be made for all plants, and the conclusion can be drawn that the fertilizer will help al plants grow taller.

Contingency Table

A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.

Binomial Distribution

Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

An experiment was conducted to compare grass seedling growth by treating the seedling soil with one of two fertilizers. Twenty-five of 100 seedlings were randomly chosen to receive Fertilizer X. The rest received Fertilizer Y. The heights were recorded for each seedling, in centimeters, at the end of the study. The results obtained are shown. Fertilizer X: X₁ = 56.2 cm, s₁ = 8 centimeters Fertilizer Y X2 = 64.5 cm, s₂ = 7 cm We wish to determine whether there is a difference in height for the seedlings treated with the different fertilizers by testing the hypotheses Ho: H2 - μ₁ = 0 and Ha: µ2 - μ10. Find the 90% confidence interval for μ2- μ₁ and make a conclusion based on that confidence interval. O The 90% confidence interval is 8.3 ± 3.024.

Table IV in Appendix A contains degrees of freedom from 1 to 75 consecutively but then contains only selected degrees of freedom. a. Why couldn’t we provide entries for all possible degrees of freedom? b. Why did we construct the table so that consecutive entries appear for smaller degrees of freedom but that only selected entries occur for larger degrees of freedom? c. If you had only Table IV, what value would you use for t0.05 with df = 87? with df = 125? with df = 650? with df = 3000? Explain your answers.

Which test should I use for this problem: A fisheries biologist stocks three different species of sunfish into a pond at an equal rate (500 individuals of each species). She is interested in determining whether catch rates of those fish by anglers differ between the three species. Any person who fishes the pond during the month of June keeps a record of how many fish they caught by each species. Each fish caught is removed from the population (i.e., harvested). Across the entire month, 100 bluegill, 75 green sunfish, and 75 redear sunfish were caught.
lecture(12.11): Researchers were interested in the effects of co-sleeping on nightime waking and crying in infants. .They assesed the number of minutes parents reported that their infants were awake and crying for a period of three days. Five of the infants co-slept with thier mothers(Co) and four infants slept in crib(Cr).The researchers wanted to see if there was a difference in the total number of minutes of crying during the 3 nights. for the two groups. A summary of the data is given below Co-sleepers night time crying in minutes: 8, 4, 7, 7, 6 Crib-sleepers night time crying in minutes: 30, 17, 22, 25 Test the hypotheses at (aplha=.05) level of signifcance. using the 5 step hypotheses testing procedure. Clealy state the null and alternative hypotheses. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
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)
A telemarketer is trying two different sales pitches to sell a carpetcleaning service. For Sales Pitch I, he contacted 175 people and 62 of these people bought the cleaning service. For Sales Pitch II, he contacted 154 people and 45 of these people bought the cleaning service. Does this indicate that there is any difference in the population proportions of the people who will buy the cleaning service, depending on which sales pitch he uses? Use α = 0.05.

A researcher takes a sample of 40 introverts and 40 extroverts and asks them to solve problems in either a crowded room or an uncrowded room. The researcher measures the number of problems solved (numbers can range from 0 problems solved to 25 problems solved). Here are the results Crowded Room Uncrowded Room Introverts M = 12 M = 18 Extroverts M = 18 M = 12 Does there appear to be a main effect of room? Does there appear to be a main effect of personality (introversion/extraversion)? Does there appear to be an interaction between room and personality?
A researcher is interested in the effects of diazepam on anxiety in rats. She takes a group of 15 female rats and injects them with 0.005 mg of diazepam for every 100 g the rats weigh, and takes a different group of female rats and injects them with saline. She then puts them all on an elevated-plus maze for 15 minutes and observes how long they spend (in seconds) in the enclosed arms versus the open arms. The less time they spend in the enclosed arms means they have less anxiety. She also weighs them before the injection to make sure she gets the dosage correct. a.
