QUESTION 22 A cereal company claims that the mean weight of Brand A cereals is less than 16 oz. The p-value is found to be 0.014. If the test had been two-tailed, the p-value would have been: 0.014. 0.028. 0.007. 0.052.

A researcher thinks that how often someone reports visiting a science museum in a year is different for people with children and people with at least one child. They get the following output: Group Statistics Std. Std.

(note how the problem is worded to indicate if it is one or two tailed)
In a 1868 paper, German physician Carl Wunderlich reported based on over a million body temperature readings that the mean body temperature for healthy adults is 98.6° F. However, it is now commonly believed that the mean body temperature of a healthy adult is less than what was reported in that paper. To test this hypothesis a researcher measures the following body temperatures from a random sample of healthy adults. 98.2, 98.6, 98.5, 98.6, 97.6, 98.2, 98.0 (a) Find the value of the test statistic. (b) Find the 10% critical value.
This is part A: population mean= 30.23 population standard deviation 13.84 sample size= 25 sample mean 33.17 How likely were we to draw a sample from part A, given the true average weight gain in the population was in fact 30.23?
Suppose that for a test of proportion we have :p=0.5 and . The test statistic z=1.53 and the p-value is reported as P-value = 0.063. Find the error in the reasoning. This is a right-tailed test so the P-value should be 0.9370. This is a two-tailed test so the P-value should be 0.126. The P-value should have been calculated using the studentâ s t-distribution. There is no error in the reasoning. None of these.
A researcher measures the relationship between hours worked by employed students and the number of units taken during the first semester of college for each individual in a group of 25 community college students. For this study: a. If we calculate the average hours worked by these community college students, the average would be an example of a ________ statistic b. Is a sample or population being measured here? c. What kind of a research study is this? d. N/n = e. What level of measurement is the number of units taken? Step 2 – check your work! Was your answer correct? If not, please make any correction here: Step 3 - if your answer was incorrect, please write out what was wrong (skip this if you were correct) show working for each

In 1908, William Gosset published the article "The probable Error of a Mean" under the pseudonym of "Student". He included the data listed below for two different types of corn seed that were used on ad jacent plots of land. The listed values are the yields of head corn in pounds per acre. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that the mean difference in yield between the two types of seed is 0.

2. A normal level glucose control (80 – 105 mg/dL) was tested at the beginning of the morning shift at a local hospital. The reagent used was of the same lot number, the instrument operator was the same, and all conditions were controlled to ensure the results would not be affected by environment or by any condition that could be controlled. The following values were recorded in 12 consecutive days. Calculate the Standard error of the mean (SEM) Days Glucose levels (mg/dL) 92 1 93 92 4 90 89 6. 87 7 88 8. 89 9. 88 10 92 11 88 12 91
