Retention Test Scores A sample of non-English majors at a selected college was used in a study to see if the student retained more from reading a 19th-century novel or by watching it in DVD form. Each student was assigned one novel to read and a different one to watch, and then they were given a 20-point written quiz on each novel. The test results are shown below. At a=0.05, can it be concluded that the book scores are higher than the DVD scores? Assume the variables are normally distributed.

Baldur is very interested in statistics and spinning and he decided to combine these two interests and carry out the following research. He randomly selected 100 Reykjavik residents and asked them two questions. On the one hand whether they want chocolate, ice cream or caramel on their pacifier and on the other hand what gender they are. Questions 4-6 deal with Baldur's survey. Baldur's question: "What do you want most on your spinner?" Has three possible answers:1) chocolate, 2) ice cream, 3) caramel, What type is the variable that Baldur records? 1. Continuous category variables. 2. Continuous number variables. 3. Unordered category variables. 4. Sorted category variables. Baldur is interested in investigating whether there is a connection between the two variables, gender and what people want on their spinner. What kind of hypothesis test should Baldur use? 1. Ki-square test. 2. Hypothesis test for two averages. 3. Variance analysis. 4. Simple linear regression. Assume that the…
Use the following information for the question. A group of home gardeners want to test whether the type of soil used to grow heirloom tomatoes has an effect on the number of tomatoes harvested. Gardeners randomly assigned tomato plants to be grown in soil with no fertilizer, commercial plant food, and homemade compost. All other growing conditions were kept the same. Forty plants were assigned to each group. At the end of the growing season the number of tomatoes harvested was counted. Assume that all other conditions for the ANOVA test have been met. One-way ANOVA F=0.762135 P=0.5202354 Factor df-2 SS=710.349206 MS=355.174603 Using the test results provided, test the hypothesis that soil treatment affects the number of tomatoes harvested. Use a significance level of 5%. Choose the correct decision regarding the null hypothesis and correct conclusion. O Reject Ho. We can conclude that the treatment of the soil affects the number of heirloom tomatoes harvested. O Reject Ho- We can…

A health journal conducted a study to see if packaging a healthy food product like junk food would influence children's desire to consume the product. A fictitious brand of a healthy food product-sliced apples-was packaged to appeal to children. The researchers showed the packaging to a sample of 348 school children and asked each whether he or she was willing to eat the product. Willingness to eat was measured on a 5-point scale, with 1 = "not willing at all" and 5 = "very willing." The data are summarized as x = 3.56 and s=2.19. Suppose the researchers knew that the mean willingness to eat an actual brand of sliced apples (which is not packaged for children) is µ = 3. Complete parts a and b below. a. Conduct a test to determine whether the true mean willingness to eat the brand of sliced apples packaged for children exceeded 3. Use α = 0.10 to make your conclusion.

Twenty-nine college students, identified as having a positive attitude about Mitt Romney as compared to Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential election, were asked to rate how trustworthy the face of Mitt Romney appeared, as represented in their mental image of Mitt Romney’s face. Ratings were on a scale of 0 to 7, with 0 being “not at all trustworthy” and 7 being “extremely trustworthy.” Here are the 29 ratings: 2.6 3.2 3.7 3.3 3.4 3.6 3.7 3.8 3.9 4.1 4.2 4.9 5.7 4.2 3.9 3.2 4.5 5.0 5.0 4.6 4.6 3.9 3.9 5.3 2.8 2.6 3.0 3.3 3.7 a 95% confidence interval for the mean rating. Is there significant evidence at the 5% level that the mean rating is greater than 3.5 (a neutral rating)?
For a statistics class project, Jonathan and Crystal held an ice-cream-eating contest. They randomly selected 29 males and 35 females from their large high school to participate. Each student was given a small cup of ice cream and instructed to eat it as fast as possible. Jonathan and Crystal then recorded each contestant's gender and time (in seconds), as shown in the dotplots. : ● Male Female 15 75 90 105 30 45 60 Time to eat ice cream (sec) Do these data give convincing evidence of a difference in the population means at the a = 0.10 significance level? State appropriate hypotheses for performing a significance test. Be sure to define the parameters of interest. = Ho: M1 M2 = 0, Ha M₁ −μ₂ > 0, where μ₁ = the true mean time it takes male students to eat a small cup of ice cream and μ₂ = the true mean time it takes for female students to eat a small cup of ice cream.

Part A. Depression affects many people. 25 out of 100 people with untreated depression will lose at least one friendship while not receiving treatment. On the other hand, when people with depression are treated with medication and counseling, only 2 out of 100 will lose at least one friendship during treatment. The absolute risk of losing at least one friendship while dealing with untreated depression is Answer: Blank / blank= blank = blank %
Psychologists have been investigating the differences between people with at least one brother or sister and those with none. In a letter to the New England Jounal of Medicine, researchers announced the results of a survey of 472 adults in Buffalo, New York. The experiment recorded whether the respondent suffered from hypertension and whether she or he had siblings. The data were summarized as shown bellow; SIBLING NO SIBLING TOTAL Suffer from hypertention 79 39 118 Do not suffer from hypertension 262 92 354 TOTAL 341 131 472 REQUIRED Do these data allow us to conclude at the 5% significance level that adults with no siblings suffer different rates of hypertension than those with siblings?
