To investigate the effect of four treatments on change in body fat mass each of 74 male subjects who were over age 65 was assigned at random to one of the following four treatments: (1) placebo "growth hormone" and placebo "steroid" (denoted by P+ P), (2) placebo "growth hormone" and the steroid testosterone (denoted by P+ S), (3) growth hormone and placebo "steroid" (denoted by G+ P), and (4) growth hormone and the steroid testosterone (denoted by G+ s). The accompanying table lists data on change in body fat mass over the 26-week period following the treatment. Carry out an F test to see whether true mean change in body fat mass differs for the four treatments if N = 74, grand total T = -158.0, and = T/N= -2.135.

The results of a mathematics exam at JUST university for two classes are as follows: Class 1: (n=32, mean=15.4, SD=8) and Class 2: (n=36, mean=9.6, SD=12).we are testing if the means are different What is the z statistic (a=0.05): O a. 1.9596 O b. 2.3678 O c. 0.9667 O d. 10.2062
According to the USDA, 46.2% of males between 20 and 39 years old consume the minimum daily requirement of calcium. After an aggressive “Got Milk?” campaign, the USDA conducts a survey of 48 randomly selected males between the ages of 20 and 39 and finds that 32 of them consume the recommended daily allowance of calcium. At the alpha=0.10 level, is there evidence to conclude that the percentage of males between the ages of 20 and 39 who consume the minimum recommended daily allowance of calcium has increased?
We are interested in comparing the proportions of men and women who say earning a large salary is very important to them. You surveyed 200 men and 200 women and recorded their answers to the question as “yes” (earning a large salary is very important) or “no” (earning a large salary is not very important). Yes No Total Men 150 50 200 Women 110 90 200 Total 260 140 400 Test the association between sex and the importance of earning a large salary using a z-test. Provide the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, p-value, and conclude test with 0.01 signifigance.
Over the past few decades, public health officials have examined the link between weight concerns and teen girls' smoking. Researchers surveyed a group of 273 randomly selected teen girls living in Massachusetts (between 12 and 15 years old). After four years the girls were surveyed again. Sixty-three said they smoked to stay thin. Is there good evidence that more than thirty percent of the teen girls smoke to stay thin? Correctly identify the null and alternative hypotheses:
A random sample of 160 car accidents are selected and categorized by the age of the driver determined to be at fault. The results are listed below. The age distribution of drivers for the given categories is 18% for the under 26 group, 39% for the 26-45 group, 31% for the 45-65 group, and 12% for the group over 65. Find the rejection region used to test the claim that all ages have crash rates proportional to their number of drivers.
Capsaicin content in red habanero chilli (Capsicum chinense Jacq.) is affected by the drying process. An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of using different drying temperatures (60 °C, 70 °C, and 80 °C) using an oven. Samples of red habanero chilli were procured. Upon checking, there were varying sizes of chilli and thus the experimenter grouped the samples according to size. Drying temperatures were then randomly assigned within each 8 hours. The capsaicin content was measured for each sample. The partial analysis of variance table is shown below: group for Source of Variation Fc p-value Size 2.1654 0.1560 Temperature 8.6013 0.0034 What is the maximum number of orthogonal contrasts that may be constructed for the post- hoc analysis of the effect of temperature?

A researcher conducts a between-subjects study to determine whether low levels of the neurochemical serotonin leads to an increase in aggression. One sample of rats serves as a control group and receives a placebo that does not affect normal levels of serotonin. A second sample of rats receives a drug that lowers brain levels of serotonin. Using an alpha level of a = .05, the researcher then tests the animals by recording the number of aggressive responses each of the rats display. The data are as follows: a.) Step 1: State the Hypotheses Ho: H₁: Control n = 10 M = 14 SS=180.5 b.) Step 2: Determine the critical region and draw it on the distribution above: df = > *critical SM₁-M₂ Low Serotonin n = 15 M = 19 SS = 130.0 c.)

A study in a journal published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (as reported in the Miami Herald, Jan. 14, 1997) seems to suggest that preschoolers who drink more than 12 ounces of fruit juice a day tend to be heavier and shorter than preschoolers who do not. The study involved a random sample of 168 healthy youngsters of whom 59 drank on average more than 12 ounces of fruit juice per day. Each child was weighed and measured. The measurements were then converted to percentage of normal height and weight for a child of that age and gender. For example, a weight percentage of 1.1 indicates that the child is 10% heavier than average. A recorded 0.80 indicates the child is 20% below the average. An average weight is recorded as 1.0. Same with height. Column 1: Juice 1- indicates child DID drink > 12 oz 2- child DID NOT drink > 12 oz Column 2: Weight% weight converted to percent of…
