Question

Ten randomly selected people took an IQ test A, and next day they took a very similar IQ test B. Their scores are shown in the table below.

Person	A	B	C	D	E	F	G	H	I	J
Test A	92	109	106	115	94	120	103	100	75	87
Test B	90	110	108	115	94	121	104	103	77	88

1. Consider (Test A - Test B). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that people do better on the second test than they do on the first. (Note: You may wish to use software.)

(a) The test statistic is

(b) The p-value is

2. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean of the differences. Again, use (Test A - Test B).

Definition Definition Measure of central tendency that is the average of a given data set. The mean value is evaluated as the quotient of the sum of all observations by the sample size. The mean, in contrast to a median, is affected by extreme values. Very large or very small values can distract the mean from the center of the data. Arithmetic mean: The most common type of mean is the arithmetic mean. It is evaluated using the formula: μ = 1 N ∑ i = 1 N x i Other types of means are the geometric mean, logarithmic mean, and harmonic mean. Geometric mean: The nth root of the product of n observations from a data set is defined as the geometric mean of the set: G = x 1 x 2 ... x n n Logarithmic mean: The difference of the natural logarithms of the two numbers, divided by the difference between the numbers is the logarithmic mean of the two numbers. The logarithmic mean is used particularly in heat transfer and mass transfer. ln x 2 − ln x 1 x 2 − x 1 Harmonic mean: The inverse of the arithmetic mean of the inverses of all the numbers in a data set is the harmonic mean of the data. 1 1 x 1 + 1 x 2 + ...
