The floor exercise is a commonly shared event between the Women’s and Men’s Artistic Gymnastics programs. Let’s compare the floor exercise scores of the female gymnasts and male gymnasts. To do this, we will consider the 2007, 2011, and 2015 results as sample data. Part A: Individual All-Around Finals We will first look at the floor exercise scores in the Individual Female All-Around Finals and in the Individual Male All-Around Finals. Female All-Around Finals Floor Exercise Male All-Around Finals Floor Exercise 15 13.55 14.85 13.75 15.2 13.5 14.25 14.25 13.85 13.35 13 13.85 13.6 13.5 13.7 13.1 14.05 12.8 12.7 12.35 14.05 13.25 13.65 10.6 13.25 12.6 13.25 13.35 13.55 13.5 12.95 13.55 13.55 12.9 13.05 11.8 11.85 13.05 13.2 13.4 11 12.05 13.8 11.05 12.25 11.8 12.1 11.8 12.1 11.9 11.6 12.35 11.9 12.5 12.05 12.35 10.75 11.95 11.2 12.05 10.55 11.6 11.1 10.9 10.45 12.5 9.6 12.05 13.85 13 14.25 13.6 14.8 13.8 14 12.55 14.5 12.8 13.75 12 13.55 13.5 12.55 12.05 13.2 13.15 13.7 13.25 13.35 11.8 13.25 12.75 12.95 12.35 13.4 12.75 13.35 12.2 13.3 12.85 12.3 12.45 13.55 12.7 12.8 12.55 12.4 12.35 13.1 12.25 12.3 12.45 12.6 13 12.65 12.05 11.9 12 10.2 12.5 12.05 12.2 11.7 12.25 10.4 11.85 10.75 11.95 9.8 11.5 9.6 11.5 10.75 9.7 9.75 10.55 9.55 10 9.05 12.1 14.65 12.85 14.2 12.65 15.35 12.9 14.6 11.8 14.3 12.9 14.75 12.45 13.65 11.95 13.7 12.1 14.25 11.8 13.8 12.35 14.1 12.1 13.6 12 14 11.85 14.25 12.2 13.2 11.7 14.4 12.15 13.25 11.3 13.7 11.3 13.15 12.4 13.05 12 13.45 12 12.4 11.45 13.3 11 12.75 10.85 12.2 11.25 12.6 10.6 11.55 10.5 11.6 10.1 11.6 11 10 11 10.9 10.85 10.35 10.35 11.75 10.2 11.3 11.05 10.3 10.9 The sample mean and sample standard deviation for Female All-Around Finals: Sample Mean = 12.687 Sample Standard Deviation = 1.477 The sample mean and sample standard deviation for Male All-Around Finals: Sample Mean = 12.174 Sample Standard Deviation = 0.944 i. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in population mean floor exercise scores between female and male gymnasts in the Individual All-Around Finals. (Hint: Use the results of i. and ii. and use the t-distribution.) ii. Using the confidence interval in part iii., can we infer at the 5% significance level that the population mean floor exercise score in the Individual All-Around Finals is different for female gymnasts and male gymnastics?

The sample
Sample Mean = 12.687
Sample Standard Deviation = 1.477
The sample mean and sample standard deviation for Male All-Around Finals:
Sample Mean = 12.174
Sample Standard Deviation = 0.944
i. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in population mean floor exercise scores between female and male gymnasts in the Individual All-Around Finals. (Hint: Use the results of i. and ii. and use the t-distribution.)
ii. Using the confidence interval in part iii., can we infer at the 5% significance level that the population mean floor exercise score in the Individual All-Around Finals is different for female gymnasts and male gymnastics?
