Is this coefficient estimatimate on FemaleStudent statistically significant at the 1% level? Conduct a t-test. In 2010, Scott Carrell, Marianne Page, and James West published a paper that uses econometrics to understand whether professor gender impacts student performance in math and science courses. The authors collected data on student grades in introductory courses taken between 2001-2008 for each of 9,015 students. I took some liberties in simplifying their results below. The following equation describes the performance of students in introductory math and science courses in terms of whether the professor is female or not (\(FemaleProfessor\)), whether the student is female or not (\(FemaleStudent\)), and an interaction variable between professor gender and student gender (\(FemaleStudent*FemaleProfessor\)). Performance is defined as a student’s normalized grade in the course (this means you interpret changes in the performance variable in terms of the standard deviation). Standard errors are given in parentheses below the coefficients.\[ Student\ Performance = -0.50FemaleProfessor - 0.15FemaleStudent + 0.10(FemaleStudent * FemaleProfessor) \]\[(0.03) \quad\quad\quad (0.02) \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad (0.04) \]\(n = 22,956\)

Is narcissism a more common personality trait today than it was a few decades ago? It is known that the mean population score on the Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI) for students attending University of South Alabama around 20 years ago was μ= 15 (Twenge, 2010). Interested in the narcissism levels of students in the year 2020, a researcher administers the NPI to a random sample of 25 University of Alabama sophomores this Spring term. The mean NPI score from the researcher’s sample of sophomores is M = 16.5, with s = 3.4. 1. Find the obtained (i.e., computed) test statistic for a sample (n=25) with a mean of 16.5 2. Make a statistical decision about the null. Will you reject or fail to reject the null based on your sample data? 3. Justify your decision about the null.
An investigation of the relationship between traffic flow (measured in cars per day) and lead content (measured in micrograms per gram of dry weight) in the bark of trees near the highway yielded the following summary statistics: Sample Mean Sample Standard Deviation Lead Content (micrograms per gram dry weight) y¯=y¯= 680 sysy = 240 Traffic Flow (cars / day) x¯=x¯= 1750 sxsx = 800 The correlation between lead content and traffic flow was found to be r = 0.6 and a scatterplot showed the form to be linear. The least squares regression line for using X to predict Y was found to be y^=365+0.18xy^=365+0.18x. For trees in a given area, if the traffic flow is 14,000 cars per week, predict the lead content in their bark. Note: the traffic flow given in this question is NOT in the same units as the values used to calculate the line. Given value of x = 14,000 cars per week equals how many cars per day Predicted Value of y is how many micrograms per gram of dry weight
What is the relationship between the F-ratio for a repeated-measures ANOVA and the F-ratio for an independent-measures ANOVA? Specifically, describe the role of individual differences in each.
Elevator Safety Exercise 9 uses μ = 189 lb, which is based on Data Set 1 “Body Data” in Appendix B. Repeat Exercise 9 using μ = 174 lb (instead of 189 lb), which is the assumed mean weight that was commonly used just a few years ago. What do you conclude about the effect of using an outdated mean that is substantially lower than it should be?

Based on the scatter plot above, describe the relationship between the amount of cost damage and the distance from nearest fire station to the residential. Determine the regression line for the above regression output. Interpret the slope coefficient of distance to the nearest station affecting the amount of fire cost damage. Compute the correlation coefficient and interpret its meaning. Does the distance to the nearest fire station has significant influence on the cost damage amount? Conduct a test at 1% significance level. ] Predict the fire cost damage generated if the distance from nearest fire station is 2.5 kilometers. Is this estimate reliable? Explain. []

Citrus Rental is a popular car rental agency that has a history of having too few cars available, so that its available cars are overdriven. The mean monthly mileage over the years for Citrus cars has been about 1550 miles per month. Recently, though, Citrus purchased thousands of new cars, and the company claims that the average mileage of its cars is now less than in the past. To test this, a random sample of 19 recent mileages of Citrus cars was taken. The mean of these 19 mileages was 1532 miles per month, and the standard deviation was 208 miles per month. Assume that the population of recent monthly mileages of Citrus cars is normally distributed. At the 0.1 level of significance, can it be concluded that the mean recent monthly mileage, μ , of Citrus cars is less than 1550 miles per month? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as…
