Since first year students reported at the University of Nairobi, a shop attendant at students hall of residence has noticed an increase in sales of fanta soda. As a statistician and market analyst, you would wish to know if there is relationship between soda preference and year level of study at the University of Nairobi. A random sample of 200 students was taken. Their year level and soda preference are given in the table. Soda/Year of study Fist Year Second Year Соса cola 33 57 Fanta 30 20 Spirit 5 35 Stoney 12 8 Based on this information, obtained the Chi-square calculated in 2 decimal places
Two surfers and statistics students collected data on the number of days on which surfers surfed in the last month for 30 longboard (L) users and 30 shortboard (S) users. Treat these data as though they were from two independent random samples. Test the hypothesis that the mean days surfed for all longboarders is larger than the mean days surfed for all shortboarders (because longboards can go out in many different surfing conditions). Use a level of significance of 0.05. Longboard: 4,8,8,4,7,7,10,6,8,10,12,11,9,15,11,16,12,9,12,18,19,15,11,15,19,20,9,23,21,23 Shortboard: 6,4,4,6,7,7,8,9,4,7,8,5,9,7,4,15,11,10,13,12,11,14,9,11,12,16,9,20,22,11 Determine the hypotheses for this test.

A graduate student is interested in how viewing different types of scenes affects working memory. For his study, he selects a random sample of 36 adults. The subjects complete a series of working memory tests before and after walking in an urban setting. Before the walk, the mean score on the test of working memory was 9.1. After the walk, the mean score was 1.4 higher. The graduate student has no presupposed assumptions about how viewing different types of scenes affects working memory, so he formulates the null and alternative hypotheses as: H00 : μDD = 0 H11 : μDD ≠ 0 Assume that the data satisfy all of the required assumptions for a repeated-measures t test. The graduate student calculates the following statistics for his hypothesis test: Mean difference (MDD) 1.4 Estimated population standard deviation of the differences (s) 1.6 Estimated standard error of the mean differences (sMDMD) 0.2667 Degrees of freedom (df) 35 The t statistic 5.25 The critical values of t…
A Michigan study concerning preference for outdoor activities used a questionnaire with a six-point Likert-type response in which 1 designated "not important" and 6 designated "extremely important." A random sample of n1 = 44 adults were asked about fishing as an outdoor activity. The mean response was x1 = 4.9. Another random sample of n2 = 49 adults were asked about camping as an outdoor activity. For this group, the mean response was x2 = 4.1. From previous studies, it is known that ?1 = 1.5 and ?2 = 2.0. Does this indicate a difference (either way) regarding preference for camping versus preference for fishing as an outdoor activity? Use a 5% level of significance. Note: A Likert scale usually has to do with approval of or agreement with a statement in a questionnaire. For example, respondents are asked to indicate whether they "strongly agree," "agree," "disagree," or "strongly disagree" with the statement.

A hypertensions trial is mounted and 12 participants are randomly assigned to receive either a new medication or a placebo. Each participant takes assigned medication and their systolic blood pressure (SBP) is recorded after 6 months on the assigned medication the data are shown in table 7-9 is there a difference in the mean SBP between treatment? Run the appropriate test at a =0.05
When three groups were compared using the one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), the result turned out to be significant, that is, the null hypothesis was rejected. What will be the appropriate interpretation of this result?A. All three groups significantly differ in means.B. Exactly two of the three groups significantly differ.C. At least two of the three groups significantly differ in means.D. All three groups have the same effect on the dependent variable.
An article compared five different methods for teaching descriptive statistics. The five methods were traditional lecture and discussion, programmed textbook instruction, programmed text with lectures computer instruction, and computer instruction with lectures. 60 students were randomly assigned, 12 to each method. After completing the course, students took a 1-hour exam. We are interested in finding out if the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods. The p-value of the test is 0.0372. What is the conclusion of the test if the level of significance is αα=0.10? There is enough evidence to conclude that all five group means are significantly different from each other. There is not enough evidence to conclude that all five group means are sigificantly different from one another. There is enough evidence to conclude that at least one group mean is significantly different from others. There is not enough evidence to conclude that at least one…
Prices of basic commodities are often greatly affected by typhoons. During the aftermath of recent typhoon, the prices of tilapia were reported to have been sold at ₱20 – ₱25 more per kilogram at local wet markets. However, the price was back to its normal mean price at ₱100 per kilo one week after. If a random sample of 10 tilapia sales transactions from local wet markets have prices (in pesos per kilo) of 107, 115, 130, 95, 100, 105, 98, 116, 104, 100. Assuming that the tilapia prices are normally distributed, is there sufficient evidence to say that the mean price of tilapia in these markets is greater than ₱100? Use a 0.05 level of significance. State the null and alternative hypotheses: Ho: ________ (symbols) Ho: _______________________________ (statement) Ha: _________ (symbols) Ha: _______________________________ (statement)

A random sample of n1 = 41 adults were asked about fishing as an outdoor activity. The mean response was x1 = 4.9. Another random sample of n2 = 50 adults were asked about camping as an outdoor activity. For this group, the mean response was x2 = 5.7. From previous studies, it is known that ?1 = 1.6 and ?2 = 1.5. Does this indicate a difference (either way) regarding preference for camping versus preference for fishing as an outdoor activity? Use a 5% level of significance.Note: A Likert scale usually has to do with approval of or agreement with a statement in a questionnaire.

Mood variation is related to photoperiod in some people, and the likelihood of depression increases in the winter months. As a result, people often assume that suicide rates increase in winter. A study in Finland (Valtonen et al. 2006) divided the year 1997 into equal halves and compared the number of suicides in “winter” (24 September to 19 March) and “summer” (remainder of year). Out of a total of 1636 suicides, 766 were in winter and 870 were in the summer. Based on these data, estimate the proportion of suicides that occurred in winter, assuming that the suicides were independent. Are the data compatible with a greater suicide rate in winter than summer, based on a 95% confidence interval?
