(a) Estimate the mean change in pleasantness rating associated with an increase of 1 impulse per second in firing frequency using a 95%
confidence interval. (Use technology or the Distribution Calculators page in SALT to find the critical value. Round your answers to three
decimal places.)
Interpret the resulting interval.
O We are 95% confident that the mean change in pleasantness rating associated with an increase of 1 impulse per second in firing
frequency is in this interval.
O We are 95% confident that the mean change in pleasantness rating associated with an increase of 1 impulse per second in firing
frequency is outside this interval.
O We are 95% confident that the mean change in firing frequency associated with an increase of 1 in pleasantness rating is in this interval.
O We are 95% confident that the mean change in firing frequency associated with an increase of 1 in pleasantness rating is outside this
interval.
(b) Carry out a hypothesis test using a = 0.05 to decide if there is convincing evidence of a useful linear relationship between firing frequency and
pleasantness rating.
Calculate the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Use technology to find the P-value for this test. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
P-value =
What can you conclude?
O Reject Ho. We do not have convincing evidence of a useful linear relationship between firing frequency and pleasantness rating.
O Fail to reject Ho. We do not have convincing evidence of a useful linear relationship between firing frequency and pleasantness rating.
O Reject Ho. We have convincing evidence of a useful linear relationship between firing frequency and pleasantness rating.
O Fail to reject Ho. We have convincing evidence of a useful linear relationship between firing frequency and pleasantness rating.
