A researcher is interested in the amount of sleep an individual receives after consuming a sleeping aid (Melatonin, Valerian root, and Placebo). The researcher randomly selects individuals into either group. However, some individuals drop out of thestudy which results in unequal sample sizes. State the conclusion of these findings. The table presents data from a study comparing the effects of Melatonin, Valerian, and a Placebo. Below is a description of the variables and the data for each group:**Melatonin:**- n (sample size) = 6- M (mean) = 14- T (total sum of scores) = 84- SS (sum of squares) = 60**Valerian:**- n (sample size) = 10- M (mean) = 13- T (total sum of scores) = 130- SS (sum of squares) = 90**Placebo:**- n (sample size) = 4- M (mean) = 9- T (total sum of scores) = 36- SS (sum of squares) = 37**Combined Data:**- N (total sample size) = 20- G (grand total of all scores) = 250- ΣX² (sum of squared values) = 3377Each row in the table represents a different statistical measure for the three groups involved in the study, designed to analyze and compare the effects of the interventions. The data allows for the computation of various statistical analyses, like ANOVA, to determine if the differences in means are statistically significant.

An industrial psychologist feels that a big factor in job turnover among assembly-line workers is the individual employees' self-esteem. He thinks that workers who change jobs often (population A) have, on the average, lower self-esteem, as measured by standardized test, than workers who do not (population B). To determine whether he can support his belief with statistical analysis, he draws a simple random sample of employees from each population and gives a test measuring self-esteem. The results are as follows. At 0.05 level of significance and assuming equal variances. Mean Standard Deviation Sample size A 52.3 9.23 10 69.47 11.78 17 Provide the tabular and computed value of the test statistic. O a. 1.703; 3.05 O b. 2.06; 3.94 O . 1.708; 4.01 O d. 2.052; 3.46
Travelers who have no intention of showing up often fail to cancel their hotel reservations in a timely manner. These travelers are known, in the parlance of the hospitality trade, as “no-shows”. To protect against no-shows and late cancellations, hotels invariably overbook rooms. A recent study examined the problems of over-booking rooms in the hotel industry. The following data, extracted from the study represent the daily numbers of late cancellations and no-shows for a random sample of 10 days at a hotel: 18, 16, 16, 16, 14, 18, 16, 18, 14, 19. a) Compute s, the sample s.d. for the data set
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the official unemployment rate for Black people was 10.4% and 4.7% for White people in February 2015. Select all correct answers for this question. O The samples of white and black people are independent. The explanatory variable is the unemployment rate. The response variable is the unemployment rate. The response variable is race.
One of the problems encountered by corporations in America is finding an adequate number of employees who want to move into management. Recent surveys of workers in America taken by the Department of Labor in Washington D. C. revealed that only 20% of employees would like to move into management and be the boss. Suppose that a random sample of 75 U.S. workers was taken and each person was asked whether or not they would like to move into management. In addition, suppose that the above random sample actually showed that only 11 of the 75 sampled employees would like to move into management. Do you think this data indicates that the Department of Labor has overstated the percentage of workers who would like to move into management? Select the best answer. You may assume the mean of the distribution is 15 and the standard deviation is 3.4641. One of the problems encountered by corporations in America is finding an adequate number of employees who want to move into management. Recent…
The Wisconsin Fish and Game Department stocked a lake with 30% catfish, 15 % bass, 40% bluegill, and 15% Northern Pike. Five years later they took a random sample of 500 fish from the lake and found 120 catfish, 85 bass, 220 bluegill, and 75 Northern Pike. At the 5% level of significance, can we show that the distribution of fish changed over the 5-year interval? State and test appropriate hypotheses. State conclusions.
Julius has conducted a very small study of the amount of sleep his dorm mates get each night. He believes that those who are on one of the school’s sports teams will get more sleep (measured in hours per night) than those who are not. Julius surveyed 12 people. Of these, 6 played on a sports team and 6 did not. The descriptive statistics from his survey are given below. PLAYS SPORTS (Sample 1) DOES NOT PLAY SPORTS (Sample 2) 8 6 9 6 8 5 7 7 8 7 7 6 What is the critical value for this test? what is the t-obtain value for this t-test? Based on your t-obtained value, what should you conclude about the null hypothesis for this test?
Acne is a common skin disease that affects most adolescents and can continue into adulthood. A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.
2. Reporting on cheats What proportion of students are willing to report cheating by other students? A student project put this question to an SRS of 172 undergraduates at a large university: "You witness two students cheating on a quiz. Do you go to the professor?" Only 11% answered "Yes." The dotplot shows the proportion who would go to the professor in each of 1000 random samples of size 172 from a population where 11% would go to the professor. 17 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.25 Simulated sample proportion who would say "Yes" 0 0.05 Distribution of simulated proportion # samples 1000 mean 0.11 SD 0.024 (a) Use the results of the simulation to approximate the margin of error for Gallup's estimate of the proportion of U.S. adults who were satisfied with the way things were going in the United States at the time of the poll. (b) Interpret the margin of error.
