Solid fats are more likely to raise blood cholesterol levels than liquid fats. Suppose a nutritionist analyzed the percentage of saturated fat for a sample of 6 brands of stick margarine (solid fat) and for a sample of 6 brands of liquid margarine and obtained the following results: Stick:[25.5,26.7,26.5,26.6,26.3,26.4] Liquid:[16.5,17.1,17.5,17.3,17.2,16.7] We want to determine if there a significant difference in the average amount of saturated fat in solid and liquid fats. What is the test statistic? a) z = 39.604 b) t = 25.263 c) t = 39.604 d) z = 39.104 e) t = 39.104
The effects of social skill training on a 29 year-old mentally retarded male adult were explored. The subject listened to typical social situations (such as getting a compliment or saying thank you) on audiotape and discussed the situations with a therapist. The subject's positive social verbal interactions were counted before the training, at three times during the training period, and at three times after the training had been completed. All counts were taken by observing the subject at a evening recreation time in the subject's group home. Results show that positive interactions increased during the training period but then rapidly decreased after training had stopped.

In a study designed to test the "truth" to the theory that, on average, U.S. adults gain weight between Thanksgiving and January a research team looked at responses from 8 randomly selected U.S. adults. The subjects were weighed (lb) on the day before Thanksgiving and again on January 3rd The raw data are found in Table 1.

We are interested in comparing the proportions of men and women who say earning a large salary is very important to them. You surveyed 200 men and 200 women and recorded their answers to the question as “yes” (earning a large salary is very important) or “no” (earning a large salary is not very important). Yes No Total Men 150 50 200 Women 110 90 200 Total 260 140 400 Test the association between sex and the importance of earning a large salary using a z-test. Provide the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, p-value, and conclude test with 0.01 signifigance.
Is there an association between daily screen time and exercise habits in high school students? Mia selects a random sample of 123 high school students and categorizes them into 1 of 3 categories of screen time and whether they exercise. She would like to determine if there is convincing evidence of an association. Let = 0.05. What are the hypotheses for this test? H0: There is an association between daily screen time and exercise habits in high school students.Ha: There is no association between daily screen time and exercise habits in high school students.H0: There is no association between daily screen time and exercise habits in high school students.Ha: There is an association between daily screen time and exercise habits in high school students.H0: There is no difference in the distribution of daily screen time and exercise habits in high school students.Ha: There is a difference in the distribution of daily screen time and exercise habits in high school students.H0: There is a…
An experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of the type of snack and children's perception of satiation was designed so that subjects aged 10 to 13 years were randomly assigned a snack that was of the exact same ingredients but described differently. The first group had their snack described as healthy and full of vitamins, the second group had their snack described as tasty, the third group were given a snack without any description whatsoever. Thirty minutes after finishing the snack, subjects were asked to rate their hunger on a scale of 1 to 10. The results are summarized in the table: ANOVA: Single Factor SUMMARY Groups Healthy Tasty No Description ANOVA Source of Variation Between Groups Within Groups Total Count 12 13. 14 SS 17.46154 62.89744 80.35897 Sum 62 46 56 Average 5.1667 3.5385 4.0000 Variance 1.9697 1.9359 1.3846 df MS F P-value 2 8.730769 4.997146 0.012156 36 1.747151 38 Based on these results, at a 5% level of significance what conclusion can the researchers draw from…
