A sample is selected from a population with µ = 46, and a treatment is administered to the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is M = 48 with a sample variance of s2 = 16. Based on this information, what is the value of Cohen’s d?

A population has a mean of µ = 20. A sample is selected from this population and a treatment is administered to each individual in the sample. The scores from this sample are summarized as follows: n = 16 ,X = 28 ,s2 = 64. Do the sample data support the conclusion that the treatment has a significant effect? Test with α = .05.
The yield per tract in a certain region of farmland is known to have a populationstandard deviation of 13 bushels. Using the old seed variety, the population mean yield μwas 39 bushels.

To evaluate the effect of a treatment, a sample of n=6 is obtained from a population with a mean of µ=80, and the treatment is administered to the individuals in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be M=72. a. If the sample variance is s²=54, are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with α=.05? b. If the sample variance is s²=150, are the data sufficient to conclude that the treatment has a significant effect using a two-tailed test with α=.05? c. Comparing your answers for parts a and b, how does the variability of the scores in the sample influence the outcome of the hypothesis test?
The average score on a statistics test was 2.52 with a standard deviation of 0.75. The teacher suspects that the exam was very difficult; Based on the above, he wants to adjust the scores so that the mean is 3.58 and the standard deviation is 0.25. Compute the values a and b such that the fit of type aX+b provide the desired mean and variance? Calculate: a=?b=?

Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 4.6 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 14 samples is 4.9 ppm with a variance of 1.2 Does the data support the claim at the 0.01 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 2 of 5 : Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.
A random sample of 16 statistics examinations from a large population was taken. The average score in the sample was 78.6 with a sample variance of 64. We are interested in determining whether the average grade of the population is significantly more than 75. Assume the distribution of the population of grades is normal. The value of the test statistic is 1.80 O b. 3.6 С. 0.45 2.
A sample tested the claim that heights of men and heights of women have difference variances, with s = 7.44592 cm for women and 7.12432 cm for men. The sample sizes are n₁ = 142 and n₂ = 159. When using the F test with these data, is it correct to reason that there is no need to check for normality because n₁ > 30 and n₂ > 30? Choose the correct answer below. O A. No. The F test has a requirement that samples be from normally distributed populations, regardless of how large the samples are. ⒸB. No. There is no need to check for normality regardless of the sample size. There is no normality requirement for the F test. O C. Yes. The F test has a requirement that samples be from normally distributed populations, but this requirement can be ignored for large samples (n, and no greater than 30). O D. No. There is no need to check for normality as long as n₁ ≥ 10 and n₂ ≥ 10.
