Suppose that we want to determine if the average daily temperature this year is higher than theaverage daily temperature in 2014(which was 32◦). We gather temperatures of 30 randomly chosen daysin the year (this is our sample). Theanalysis of the sample yields thatx = 32.4◦and s = 5.2◦. Testyour hypothesis at the 5% significance level. 2.

A sample of N = 9 individuals participates in a repeated measures study that produces a sample mean difference of X = 4.25 with SS = 128 for the difference scores. Is this mean difference large enough to be considered a real positive effect?
A sample of 33 lights in Austin gives an average of 46 cars/min while the city SD=3.4 A sample of 34 Dallas lights give a mean of 44 cars/mim with the city SD=1.4 At the 91% level, do the towns differ? 1. Is the test (A-Left Tailed, B-Right Tailed, C-2-Tailed) (separate with comma if there are 2) 2. Critical Value 3. Test statistic 4. 3-decimal p-Value
A researcher believes that low BMI levels are indicators of eating disorders. He collects BMI of a sample of young adults identified as at risk for eating disorfers to see if their mean BMI is significantly below 18.5 What test would you use and why? (z test, independent t test, single sample t test, paired samples)
I. There are two samples with means 15 and 18. Both of those samples consist of 24 observations. Sample standard deviations are equal to 4 in both cases. If you want to test whether the difference between the mean in the first and the mean in the second population is equal to 0, what is your decision at the .01 level?
Choose the appropriate statistical test. When computing, be sure to round each answer as indicated. A dentist wonders if depression affects ratings of tooth pain. In the general population, using a scale of 1-10 with higher values indicating more pain, the average pain rating for patients with toothaches is 6.8. A sample of 30 patients that show high levels of depression have an average pain rating of 7.1 (variance 0.8). What should the dentist determine? 1. Calculate the estimated standard error. (round to 3 decimals). [st.error] 2. What is thet-obtained? (round to 3 decimals). 3. What is the t-cv? (exact value) 4. What is your conclusion? Only type "Reject" or Retain"
In a hypothesis test for the population variance, the alternate hypothesis is the population variance doesn't equal 17.0. The significance level to be used is 0.05 and the sample size to be taken is 25. The table value(s) to use from the chi-square distribution is/are 12.401 and 39.364. 13.181 39.364 40.671
Data from 500 random tornados was collected and the length in miles that the tornado was touching the ground was recorded. We want to test the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.5 miles using a .05 significance level. Using the traditional method if the test statictic is .759, x hat = 2.72424 and s= .2956. Tell why you made the decision you did.
A researcher predicts that smoking cigarettes decreases a person's sense of smell. On a test of olfactory sensitivity (smell), the mean for non-smokers is 18.4. A sample of 12 people who smoke a pack each day have a sample mean of 16.25 (sample variance = 4.75). Complete the following statement: We ["", ""] the null. Smokers have ["", "", ""] in olfactory sensitivity compared to non-smokers.

A researcher wants to know if male and female college students differ with regard to their GPAs. She randomly gets 16 male and 16 female college students to report their GPAs. The males reported a mean GPA of 3.05 with a SS = 3.75. The females reported a mean GPA of 3.1 with a SS = 2.4. You are going to be conducting an independent samples t-test. Compute the independent samples t-statistic:
