A standard method of analyzing aspirin tablets has a known variance of 25. A sample of 10 aspirin tablets is selected and analysed for the amount of aspirin using a modified method, yielding the following results: 254, 249, 252, 252, 249, 249, 250, 247, 251, 252. Determine whether the precision of the modified method is significantly different from that of the standard method at, alpha(a) = 0.05.

In a large design class, the scores on the "PDI" project were normally distributed with u = 100. The professor examined a sample of n= 56 students who used extra resources instead of only one resource like the other students in the class He found that the mean for students who used extra resources was M= 104.125. He used a one-sample t test to analyze the results, and part of the SPSS output is shown below. %3D One-Sample Statistics Std Error Mean N.

A random sample is obtained from a population with a mean of µ 20. After a treatment is administered to the individuals in the sample, the sample mean is M = 21.3 with a variance of s2 = 9.
The police chief selects a sample of 50 local police officers from a population of officers with a mean physical fitness rating of 75 ± 8.0 (m ± s) on a 100-point physical endurance rating scale. He measures a sample mean physical fitness rating on this scale equal to 79. He conducts a one–independent sample z test to determine whether physical endurance increased at a .05 level of significance. Compute effect size using Cohen’s d.

The sum of squares value was 110.40. What is the appropriate test statistic and what it its critical value (applying α = 0.05)? t ; 2.365 r; 1.96 z; 2.307 t; 2.307
For the general population, the average fatigue level is μ = 50. A researcher is testing the hypothesis that engaging a meditation exercise reduces employee fatigue. A sample of n = 30 participants is obtained, and each participant engaged in a meditation exercise for 20 minutes at work each workday for a month. This sample’s average fatigue level was M = 46 with a sample variance of 100 after the month. Please write out the four steps for this hypothesis test assuming an alpha level of .05.
