Your supervisor really appreciates you and, based on your hard work, is often doing her best to get you promoted, get raises, and so forth. You have some colleagues who are under-appreciated by their supervisors and have not received a raise or promotion in years. You believe that there is some relationship between how much a supervisor appears to be appreciative and the amount of money his/her subordinates make. To test this, you distributed a survey to all of the people in your organization who are in supervisory positions. You measure their appreciation for each individual works for them on a Likert-type scale of 1-5. You also have corresponding data for supervisors' employees' salaries. What test would you use to discover if there is something to the notion that you have? a. Regression b. Matched pairs t-test O c. None of these O d. Inependent samples t-test e. Correlation Of. Chi-square g. ANOVA

A consumer advocacy group is doing a large study on car rental practices. Among other things, the consumer group would like to do a statistical test regarding the mean monthly mileage, u, of cars rented in the U.S. this year. The consumer group has reason to believe that the mean monthly mileage of cars rented in the U.S. this year is different from last year's mean, which was 2750 miles. The group plans to do a statistical test regarding the value of u. It chooses a random sample of monthly mileages and computes the mean of the sample to be 2900miles and the standard deviation to be 800 miles. Based on this information, answer the questions below. What are the null hypothesis (H,) and the alternative hypothesis (H,) that should be used for the test? Ho H is? u is ? In the context of this test, what is a Type II error? A Type II error is ? the hypothesis that u is ? when, in fact, u is ? Suppose that the group decides to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might it be…
Suppose we measure GPA for people in our class, we find the mean is 2.8 and the median is 3.2. What can you say is most likely true about GPAs in our class?
A friend of yours tells you that they heard that 65% of all college athletes end up losing a finger or toe in their college athletic career. You're highly skeptical of this, but your not sure if that percentage is an over exageration or an under exageration. You survey 101 former student-athletes and find that 60 of them lost a digit during their college athletic career. Is this enough evidence to conclude that the true percentage of student-athletes that lose a digit during their collegiate career is really different from 65%?
In 2013 students from a Statistics class at FSEV UK were asked to survey their friends who were 15-30 years old, in order to explore the interests of young people. The survey has a variety of questions, which are detailed in the Survey Key. For example, the column header “Music” is short for the question “I enjoy listening to music” and is rated 1-5, where 1 represents strongly disagree and 5 represents strongly agree. There is also some categorical data present as well. Survey participants record their gender, how often they smoke/drink, their internet usage, and education (just to name a few!). Please perform a hypothesis test based on one of the categorical variables and one survey question. For example, you could choose to prove the following: Survey participants who identify as an “only child” enjoy meeting new people (Survey score ). Here is an example: people who are right-handed (as identified in the data set) enjoy listening to music. Please be sure to use two columns…

USA TODAY (October 14, 2016) reported that Americans spend 4.1 hours per weekday checking work email. This was an estimate based on a survey of 1,004 white-collar workers in the United States. (a) Suppose that you would like to know if there is evidence that the mean time spent checking work email for white-collar workers in the United States is more than half of the 8-hourwork day. What would you need to assume about the sample in order to use the given sample data to answer this question? (Select all that apply.) We would need to assume that all white-collar workers were surveyed or the sample is representative of the population of white-collar workers in the United States.We would need to assume that all observations are dependent or all observations are independent.We would need to assume that the distribution of the population of times is normal or that the sample size is small.We would need to assume that the sample was randomly selected or is representative of the population…
One personality test available on the World Wide Web has a subsection designed to assess the "honesty" of the test-taker. After taking the test and seeing your score for this subsection, you're interested in the mean score, μ , among the general population on this subsection. The website reports that μ is 148 , but you believe that μ is greater than 148 . You decide to do a statistical test. You choose a random sample of people and have them take the personality test. You find that their mean score on the subsection is 152 and that the standard deviation of their scores is 28 . Based on this information, answer the questions below. What are the null hypothesis ( H0 ) and the alternative hypothesis ( H1 ) that should be used for the test? H0 : μ is H1 : μ is In the context of this test, what is a Type I error?A Type I error is the hypothesis that μ is when, in fact, μ is .Suppose that you decide not to…

One personality test available on the World Wide Web has a subsection designed to assess the "honesty" of the test-taker. You are interested in the mean score, μ , among the general population on this subsection. The website reports that μ is 145, but you have good reason to believe that μ is less than 145. You decide to do a statistical test. You choose a random sample of people and have them take the personality test. You find that their mean score on the subsection is 139 and that the standard deviation of their scores is 28. Based on this information, complete the parts below.
