The Batteries sheet of the Data Excel file shows the results of two random samples that measured the average number of minutes per charge for AA Lithium-ion (Li-ion) rechargeable batteries versus Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable batteries. Perform a hypothesis test using significance level (α) = 0.05 to determine if the true average number of minutes per charge for NiMH batteries is smaller than that for Li-ion batteries. Let:µLi-ion be the true average number of minutes per charge for Li-ion batteries µNiMH be the true average number of minutes per charge for NiMH batteries. t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variances NiMH Li-ion Mean 89.35714 95 Variance 3.93956 59.75 Observations 14 17 Hypothesized Mean Difference 0 df 19 t Stat -2.89621 P(T<=t) one-tail 0.004628 t Critical one-tail 1.729133 P(T<=t) two-tail 0.009255 t Critical two-tail 2.093024

Based on the graph and the given information, why the two-sample t-test is valid for this study? (select all that are true).
|
The sample data contain no outliers. |
|
The sample size is large enough (because n1+n2 = 14+17 = 31 is not more than 40). |
|
The sample data contain at least one outlier. |
|
Each population can reasonably be assumed to be normal because sampled data do not deviate much from a |
|
Each population cannot reasonably be assumed to be normal because samples do not have approximately a normal distributions. |
|
The samples are random and independent. |
|
The samples are not independent. |
|
The samples are not random. |
Select the correct answer for null and alternative hypotheses for this test.
options:
|
H0 : µNiMH - µLi-ion = 0 H1 : µNiMH - µLi-ion < 0 |
|
H0 : µNiMH - µLi-ion = 0 H1 : µNiMH - µLi-ion > 0 |
|
H0 : µNiMH - µLi-ion = 0 H1 : µNiMH - µLi-ion ≠ 0 |
From the data given from the t Test: Two Sample Assuming Unequal Variances chart what would be the P value?
Options:
89.357
0.0046

Based on your two-sample t-test output in the Excel file, select the conclusion at 5% significance level.
options:
|
p-value is larger than significance level. Do not reject H0 There is insufficient evidence to conclude that true average number of minutes per charge for NiMH batteries is smaller than that for Li-ion batteries. |
|
