Measurements of the sodium content in samples of two brands of chocolate yielded the following results: Brand A- n 9, s = 2.642 the 1% significance level, that the sodium content is more variable in Brand B ? (Assume that sodium content is normally distributed.) Brand B- n= 13, s = 6.409 . Can you conclude, at (A) Yes (B) No

A special education teacher did research on whether or not there is a relationship between the number of students in his class and the number incidents of “acting out” behaviors exhibited by the autistic students in the classroom. He collects data for a year and aggregates them by month. He obtained the statistics below, r= -.863 R2=.74 b= -1.212294 a= 131.176598 10.) How does the presence of more students affect the incidents in the class? a) as students are added the incidences increase b) as students are added the incidences decrease c) the number of students does not affect acting out d) the number of students caused more incidents How much of the variability of acting out is explained by the number of students in the class?___________
.Researchers are testing the breaking strength of a new brand of rope using a large sample of ropes. In a test of Ho: p=0.80 versus Ha: p>0.80, where p is the true proportion of all ropes of this brand that would break when subjected to a weight of 1000 pounds, the test statistic is z = 1.45. Which of the following is true? (A) Ho is rejected at the 5% level, but not at the 10% level of significance. (B) Ho is rejected at the 10% level, but not at the 5% level of significance. (C) Ho is rejected at both the 5% and 10% level of significance. (D) Ho is not rejected at both the 5% and 10% level of significance. (E) Ho is not rejected at any level of significance.
A study was done to look at the relationship between number of lovers college students have had in their lifetimes and their GPAs. The results of the survey are shown below. Lovers 0 3 1 2 5 1 8 GPA 3.3 2.9 3.4 3.3 2.5 2.8 0.7 1. The p-value is: _____ (Round to four decimal places) 2. Use a level of significance of α=0.05 to state the conclusion of the hypothesis test in the context of the study (pick one). a. There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that there is a correlation between the number of lovers students have had in their lifetimes and their GPA. Thus, the regression line is useful. b. There is statistically significant evidence to conclude that a student who has had more lovers will have a lower GPA than a student who has had fewer lovers. c. There is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that a student who has had more lovers will have a lower GPA than a student who has had fewer lovers. d. There is statistically insignificant…
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
Mr. Bates wants to compare the midterm scores of his students who took the course during the fall semester versus the spring semester. Here is the data: Fall 89 86 64 91 72 94 87 83 86 90 74 59 87 97 87 Spring 76 70 82 94 76 66 72 51 75 97 74 81 85 96 74 Can he say that there was a significant difference between his fall and spring students? (Use α = .10)
Lecture(8.4): Researchers were interested in whether the number of books children carried differed between gender. It was hypothesized that girls would carry more books than boys.Twenty children were recruited and matched based on age and SES..Researchers then collected the number of the age of the appropiate books the children carried. A Summary of the result is given below: Girls 15 7 22 13 26 14 12 11 18 30 Boys 12 10 16 8 17 9 15 10 20 15 Test the hypotheses at (alpha=0.05) level of signifance
In a fishing lodge brochure, the lodge advertises that 75% of its guests catch northern pike over 20 pounds. Suppose that last summer 59 out of a random sample of 85 guests did, in fact, catch northern pike weighing over 20 pounds. Does this indicate that the population proportion of guests who catch pike over 20 pounds is different from 75% (either higher or lower)? Use a = 0.05. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. O Ho: p = 0.75; H1: p 0.75 (b) What sampling distribution will you use? O The Student's t, since np 5 and ng > 5. O The standard normal, since np 5 and nq > 5. What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) (c) Find the P-value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
