A sample is randomly selected from a population with a mean of μ = 50, and a treatment is administered to the individuals in the sample. After treatment, the sample is found to have a mean of M = 56 with a standard deviation of s = 8. Which test is most appropriate to determine if there is a difference between the means? z-score test single-sample t-test independent samples t-test related-samples t-test

Suppose in a local Kindergarten through 12th grade (K -12) school district, 49% of the population favor a charter school for grades K through 5. A simple random sample of 144 is surveyed. a.

A population has parameters u = 239.9 and o = 18.4. You intend to draw a random sample of size n = 76. What is the mean of the distribution of sample means? What is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means? (Report answer accurate to 2 decimal places.)
Suppos are interested in studying a population to estimate its mean. The population is normal and has a standard deviation of G=23. We have taken a random sample of size 11=95 from the population. This is Sample 1 in the table below. (In the table, Sample 1 is written "S1", Sample 2 is written "S2", etc.) As shown in the table, the sample mean of Sample 1 is = 142.0. Also shown are the lower and upper limits of the 80% confidence interval for the population mean using this sample, as well as the lower and upper limits of the 95% confidence interval. Suppose that the true mean of the population is = 140, which is shown on the displays for the confidence intervals. Press the "Generate Samples" button to simulate taking 19 more random samples of size 11 = 95 from this same population. (The 80% and 95% confidence intervals for all of the samples are shown in the table and graphed.) Then complete parts (a) through (c) below the table. 80% 80% 95% 95% lower upper lower upper limit limit…
Use the data in the Excel workbook, on the worksheet labeled "Sample," for this question. The first column is just an observation index labeled i to name each observation. The observations are a simple random sample with replacement from a much larger population. The second column contains specific values y of a random variable Y found in some sampled population. The population standard deviation is not known to you, but it is known that Y has a Normal distribution in the sampled population. Compute the lower bound of an 85% confidence interval for the population mean of the random variable Y. i y 1 37 2 40 3 31 4 27 5 23 6 33 7 29 8 26 9 39 10 28 11 34 12 39 13 31 14 34 15 39 16 33 17 31 18 42
