A study was conducted of 90 adult male patients following a new treatment for congestive heart failure. One of the variables measured on the patients was the increase in exercise capacity (in minutes) over a 4-week treatment The previous treatment regime had produced an average increase of μ = 2 minutes. The researchers wanted to evaluate whether the new treatment had increased the value of μ in comparison to the previous treatment. The sample data yielded ?̅ = 2.17 and ? = 1.05: Using α = 05, what conclusions can you draw about the research hypothesis?

In the population of senior students at Shermer High School, the proportion who plan to attend college is 0.64. In a random sample of 100 students from this population, the proportion who plan to attend college is 0.75. We would call the value 0.64 a P-value. z-score. parameter statistic significance level.
A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 54 men and 70 women to participate in the study. Each subject was required to step up and down a 6-inch platform. The pulse of each subject was then recorded. The following results were obtained.

You recently had a cholesterol panel completed and see that the results for your High Density Lipoprotien (HDL) level comes back with z = -1.7 among people of your stature. Your doctor is going to review the results with you but based on what you know about z-scores you can infer: a.The average person of your stature is 1.7 deviations below you. b.Your HDL level is slightly below average. c.The score is negative so this will be good news. d.Your HDL level is extremely low for a person of your stature.
To examine the effect of relaxing music on math test performance, a researcher wants to compare the average math test scores of participants who completed the test with relaxing music to performance of participants who completed the same math test without music. The partially computed data collected in the study are shown below: Math Test with Music: Math Test without Music: n1 = 16 n2 = 12 M1 = 82 M2 = 78 SS1 = 150 SS2 = 140 Based on these results, is there a significant effect of relaxing music on math test performance? Use a t-test for independent samples with p < .01, 2-tails to answer this research question. Follow the steps of hypothesis testing and insert your answers below. In your calculations, round all numbers to two decimal places to avoid rounding errors. ANSWER H0: H1: Computed pooled variance sp2: Estimated standard SM1 - M2: Computed t: Critical t-value for…
Listed below are the overhead widths (in cm) of seals measured from photographs and the weights of the seals (in kg). The purpose of the study was to determine if weights of seals could be determined from overhead photographs. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between overhead widths and the weights of the seals? Use a significance level of α=0.05. a. Determine rs. rs= (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b. Determine the critical values. Critical values are (Round to three decimal places as needed. Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)
A paint company has large outlet stores in two cities. Ten samples of the weekly sales (in tons) for the two cities are as follows. City A: n = 10, X10 = 148.5, S1 = = 4.3. City B: n = 10, Y 10 = 144.2, S2 = 3.8. At a = 0.05 level of significance, test if the weekly sales are different. The following ¨answers" have been proposed. (a) The null hypothesis is that the weekly sales are the same and the alternative is that the they are not the same. By using an F test, we reject the null hypothesis. (b) The null hypothesis is that the weekly sales are the same and the alternative is that the they are not the same. By using an F test, we do not reject the null hypothesis. (c) The null hypothesis is that the weekly sales are the same and the alternative is that the they are not the same. By using a i test, we do not reject the null hypothesis. (d) The null hypothesis is that the weekly sales are the same and the alternative is that the they are not the same. By using a i test, we reject the…
The old variety of a plant has 70% pink flowers. A new variety is developed. In a random sample of 93 plants from the new variety, 59 had pink flowers. Test the claim that the percent of plants with pink flowers for the new variety is different than 70%. Use a 0.10 level of significance. Question 6 options: DO NOT Reject H0 Using a 0.10 level of significance there is not evidence to say the proportion of pink flowers is different than 0.70 Reject H0 Using a 0.10 level of significance there is evidence to say the proportion of pink flowers is not different than 0.70

The number of hours per week that the television is turned on is determined for each family in a sample. The mean of the data is 31 hours and the median is 27.2hours. Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 16 hours or less for the week. The 8th percentile of the data is 16 hours. Based on the given information, determine if the following statement is true or false. The first quartile is less than 16 hours.
