A research conducted by SSTA022 Class representative at the University of Limpopo indicates that running increases the lifespan among African men. The mean lifespan of 31 African men runners was 34.0% more than the mean lifespan of 31 inactive African men, with variances reported to be 110.25% and 104.04%, respectively. Assuming the populations to be approximately normally distributed with equal variances. ii) Construct a 95% confidence interval for μ₁ −μ₂.

- A psychologist wants to test whether there is any difference in puzzle-solving abilities between boys and girls. Independent samples of eleven boys and seven girls were chosen at random. The boys took a mean of 37 minutes to solve a certain puzzle, with a standard deviation of 4.8 minutes. The girls took a mean of 35 minutes to solve the same puzzle, with a standard deviation of 4.5 minutes. Assume that the two populations of completion times are normally distributed, and that the population variances are equal. Can we conclude, at the 0.10 level of significance, that the mean puzzle-solving times for boys, μ1 is greater than the mean puzzle-solving times for girls, μ2? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. a. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1. b. Find the value of the test statistic.

Assume scores on the anxiety scales are normally distributed and the variance among the group of bullies and bystanders are the same. A group of 30 bullies scores an average of 21.5 with a sample standard deviation of 10 on the anxiety scale. A group of 27 bystanders scored an average of 25.8 with a sample standard deviation of 8 on the anxiety scale. You do not have any presupposed assumptions whether bullies or bystanders will be more anxious so you formulate the null and alternative hypothesis based on that.
