Question 10 Suppose you will perform a test to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a claim of a linear correlation between two variables. Find the critical values of r given the number of pairs of data n and the significance level a. n = 9, a = 0.01 Or= 0.798 r= 0.834 r= +0.666 r= +0.798
A special education teacher did research on whether or not there is a relationship between the number of students in his class and the number incidents of “acting out” behaviors exhibited by the autistic students in the classroom. He collects data for a year and aggregates them by month. He obtained the statistics below, r= -.863 R2=.74 b= -1.212294 a= 131.176598 10.) How does the presence of more students affect the incidents in the class? a) as students are added the incidences increase b) as students are added the incidences decrease c) the number of students does not affect acting out d) the number of students caused more incidents How much of the variability of acting out is explained by the number of students in the class?___________

QUESTION 4 A steel manufacturing company wishes to compare the strength of the wires produced by an existing and a new process. The manufacturer will use the existing process unless the inerease in the mean strength in the new process is significant The following data represents the strength of the steel wires made by the two processes: Process Strength of steel wires (megapascal, MPa) 1334 1330 13 10 1340 Existing 1365 1286 1320 1333 1300 1350 New 1300 1310 1340 1342 1390 1340 1350 Assuming that the strengths of the steel wire using the existing and new process are approximately normal a) Is there evidence that the steel manufacturing company should use the existing process to make the steel wires. Use the probability of Type I error at 0 01. Assume that the standard deviation does not change.

Question 8 Consider this scenario: A cereal-packing company where the content of cereal boxes must have a mean of 368 grams to satisfy the labeling on the box. Because it is expensive to weigh every box produced at the factory, a sample of boxes is used to estimate the actual mean. After analyzing the data sample, the operations manager must decide whether or not the manufacturing process is working as expected. Suppose a sample of 49 boxes is taken from thousands produced during an 8-hour shift and the standard deviation (σ) of the cereal-filling process is 15, what is the standard error of the mean? Use the equation, σX̅ = σ /(square-root of n), where n is the sample size. Enter your result as a value with one digit after the decimal point (e.g. 1.7).

Question 2 At the end of 2020, the mean age of the U.S. population was estimated to be 38.5 years old. You are tasked with determining whether the mean age of the population of IAT participants (for your chosen IAT data set) differs from the mean age of the U.S. population. 1. Let be the mean age of the population of IAT participants for your chosen IAT data set. State the hypotheses (symbolically and in words). Include a clear description of the populations and the variable. 2. 3. 4. Use StatCrunch to create a histogram for the age distribution in your unique IAT sample. Download the StatCrunch output window and embed your histogram with your response. Can we safely use the t-test with your IAT sample? Explain. Perform the t-test using StatCrunch. Copy the information from the StatCrunch output window and paste it into your response. Based on the P-value, state your conclusions in context. Use a 5% level of significance. (NOTE: Since StatCrunch correctly calculates the P-value for…

QUESTION 35 Suppose a hypertension trial is mounted and 18 participants are randomly assigned to one of the comparison treatments. Each participant takes the assigned medication and his or her systolic blood pressure is recorded after 6 months on the assigned treatment. The data are as follows.

Run the appropriate test at α = 0.05.
QUESTION 20 A treatment for anxiety is found to demonstrate a consistent reduction of anxiety sympotms by 2 points on a 50- point anxiety symptoms scale. Although patients overall do not report feeling much difference, the experiemnter finds that the change in symptoms on the anxiety symptoms scale results in a p-value of less than .05. This is an example of A statitically significant effect that does not have clinical/practical significance A clinically significant change which is supported by a statistically significant effect A correlational research design A placebo effect
