A Computer information systems professor is interested in studying the amount of time if takes students enrolled in the introduction to Computers course to write a program in VB.NET. The professor hires you to analyse the following results (in minutes), from a random sample of nine students:
a. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that the population
b. Suppose that the professor, when checking her results, realize that the fourth student 51 minutes rather than the recorded 15 minutes to write the VB.NET program. At THE 0.05 level of significance, reanalyse the question posted in (a), using the revised data. What will you tell the professor now?
c. The professor is perplexed by these paradoxical results and requests an explanation from you regarding the justification for the difference in your findings in (a) and (b). Discuss.
d. A few days later, the professor calls to tell you that the dilemma is completely resolved. The Original number 15 (the fourth data value) was “correct� and therefore your finding in (a) are being used in the article she is writing for a computer journal. Now she wants to hire you to compare the results from that group of Introduction to Computers students against those from a sample of II computer majors, the sample mean 8.5 minutes, and the sample standard deviation is 2.0 minutes. At the 0.05 level of significance, completely analyse these data. What will you tell the professor?
e. A few days later, the professor calls again to tell you that a reviewer of her article wants her to include the p-values for the “correct� result in (a). in addition, the professor inquires about an unequal-variances problem, which the reviewer wants her to discuss in her article. In your own words, discuss the concept of p-value and also describe the unequal-variances problem. Then, determine the p-value in (a) and discuss whether the unequal-variances problem had any meaning in the professor’s study.

The agency measures the average number of daily clicks on ads for three platforms: Social Media, Search Engines, and Email Campaigns. The agency collects data on daily clicks for each platform over a 10-day period and wants to test whether there is a statistically significant difference in the mean number of daily clicks among these platforms.
