A new shoe company claims that their new Jumpalicious sneakers will help all wearers jump significantly higher. A group of basketball coaches wish to test this claim at the a 0.10 level of significance. A random sample of players jumped with their current sneakers on, the maximum height reached was recorded, then the same group of players put on the Jumpalicious sneakers and jumped again, recording the maximum height reached. The 'old shoe' and 'new shoe' data is given below. Let uo be the mean height reached by players wearing their old sneakers, µN be the mean height reached by players wearing the new sneakers, and 4 = N-Ho. Assume that the jump differences have a normal distribution. (Round your results to three decimal places) Which would be correct hypotheses for this test?

People often say “Distance makes the heart fonder.” Interestingly, due to pandemic related lockdowns, some persons have been implicitly or explicitly indicating that it is indeed true as they have been struggling with their relationships due to lack of time apart from their partner. A researcher who is interested in such an issue decided to collect data on the level of rage/edginess that exist among a few couples due to lockdowns. Participants were asked to rank the level of hostility they think they have been exerting towards their partner due to having to spend more time than they usually do with them. The resulting data is presented on page two (2). 2 *14 is the highest level of hostility. Level of hostility Number of partners 0-1 4 2-3 11 4-5 8 6-7 20 8-9 25 10-11 12 12-13 12 13-14 4 a.

A polling organization is checking its database to see if the data sources it used sampled the same ZIP codes. The variable Datasource = 1 if the data source is MetroMedia, 2 if the data source is DataQwest, and 3 if it's RollingPoll. The organization finds that the correlation between five-digit ZIP code and DATAsource is - 0.0229. It concludes that the correlation is low enough to state that there is no dependency between ZIP code and Source of Data. Comment. Choose the correct answer below. O A. A correlation of -0.0229 is very close to zero, which implies that there is a very strong relation between the variables O B. A correlation must be between 0 and 1, so the correlation of -0.0229 must have been calculated incorrectly. O C. The source of the data is categorical, which will almost always result in very low correlation values. These types of correlations can only be interpreted in the rare instances when the correlation is close to -1 or 1. O D. The source of the data is…
Researchers Holdgate et al. (2016) studied walking behavior of elephants in North American zoos to see if there is a difference in average distance traveled by African and Asian elephants. They put GPS loggers on 33 African elephants and 23 Asian elephants and measured the distance (in kilometers) the elephants walked per day. The data in the file below Elephants contains results that are consistent with what the researchers found: Species Distance: African 6.12 African 3.65 African 4.26 African 3.8 African 5.23 African 5.02 African 5.17 African 5.37 African 4.89 African 6.4 African 6.42 African 6.85 African 3.38 African 7.71 African 4.02 African 3.52 African 5.81 African 5.83 African 7.02 African 6.11 African 4.62 African 5.54 African 3.2 African 5.49 African 5.47 African 6.97 African 3.74 African 3.04 African 7.84 African 8.62 African 7.63 African 5.25 African 4.19 Asian 1.39 Asian 2.59 Asian 8.03 Asian 7.93 Asian 0.33 Asian 8.22 Asian 6.95 Asian 2.39 Asian 3.89 Asian 10.53 Asian…
Kris works for the MESA Air Pollution Study at UW, and studies the correlation be- tween air pollution and the disease atherosclerosis. Nationally, 40% of adults suffer from atherosclerosis. Kris suspects that the proportion of people with atherosclerosis in high- pollution areas is higher. In a random sample of 600 residents of high-pollution areas, he finds that 270 (45%) subjects have atherosclerosis. At the 1% level (α = .01), is this good evidence that people in high-pollution areas are more likely to have atherosclerosis? (a) Which of the following is the Ha ? (research claim or alternate) A. Ha : p ≥ 0.40 B. Ha : pb ≥ 0.40 C. Ha : p > 0.40 D. Ha : p > b 0.40 E. Ha : p > b 0.45 F. Ha : p > 0.45 G. Ha : pb ≥ 0.45 H. Ha : p ≥ 0.45 I.

The accompanying technology output was obtained by using the paired data consisting of foot lengths (cm) and heights (cm) of a sample of 40 people. Along with the paired sample data, the technologgy was also given a foot length of 10.8 cm to be used for predicting height. The technology found that there is a linear correlation between height and foot length. If someone has a foot length of 10.8 cm, what is the single value that is the best predicted height for that person? H Click the icon to view the technology output.

Each year, marketing and information firm J.D. Power and Associates surveys new car owners 90 days after they have purchased their cars. The data collected are used to rate auto brands (Toyota, Ford, and others) on initial quality and initial customer satisfaction. USA Today reported both the number of manufacturing defects per 100 vehicles and a satisfaction score for all 33 brands sold in the United States.+ A research group decides to compare the mean number of defects for 2 specific models of cars, A and B, made this year by taking random samples of 100 cars of each model. USE SALT (a) After collecting the data, the research group calculates a 95% confidence interval to estimate the difference in population means. In this case, what is the population? O the defects O all cars made this year all cars for models A and B that were produced this year O the 100 cars from each model (b) Suppose the calculated confidence interval is (100, 104) number of defects.

An athletic director proudly states that he has used the average GPAs of the university's sports teams and is predicting a high graduation rate for the teams. Why is this method unsafe? Choose the correct answer below. OA. This method is unsafe because the average GPA may differ for each team. Using the average of the average GPA of each team obscures the possibility that certain teams tend to perform less well in classes. B. This method is unsafe because there is more variation in the GPAs of the athletes than the average GPA of the university's sports teams. Strong students may offset weak students in calculating the average GPAS, which makes it appear more likely that most students are doing well. OC. This method is unsafe because it is dangerous to extrapolate into the future. Classes in university tend to become more difficult, which makes it less likely that the average GPA will hold as time goes on. D. This method is unsafe because there is a minimum GPA required to graduate. If…
For effective learning, an instructor advised his students to practice solving statistical problems on StatCrunch, a web-based software, at least 7 hours per week. In an in class activity, a student surveyed 15 of her 35 classmates to assess the number of hours they spend per week practicing statistics on StatCrunch. The following data was collected: 6.5, 4, 3.5, 0, 12, 5, 12, 15, 12, 0, 1, 8, 0.5, 2, 7. Is there strong evidence that the mean number of hours of StatCrunch usage in the entire class is larger than 7? Let the confidence level be 95% Use Microsoft excel to do the following. State the hypothesis Construct one sample t-test. Provide the table from excel Draw the rejection region from excel What is the p-value? Conclusion is the hypothesis rejected pr not?
Fifty-four wild bears were anesthetized, and then their weights and chest sizes were measured and listed in a data set. Results are shown in the accompanying display. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the weights of bears and their chest sizes? When measuring an anesthetized bear, is it easier to measure chest size than weight? If so, does it appear that a measured chest size can be used to predict the weight? Use a significance level of α=0.05. Correlation Results Correlation coeff, r: 0.955111 Critical r: ±0.2680855 P-value (two tailed): 0.000 Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
