EXAMPLE
1. An experimental study was conducted by a researcher to determine if a new time slot has an effect on the
performance of the learners in mathematics. Fifteen randomly selected learners participated in the study. Toward
the end of the investigation, a standardized assessment was conducted. The sample mean was 85 and the sample
standard deviation is 3. In the standardization of the test, the mean was 75 and the sample standard deviation was
10. What test – statistic is appropriately to use?
Answer:
Based on the given values, the population standard deviation is unknown and n is 15 which is less than 30. This
suggest that the appropriate test statistic is t - test.
2. The average test score for an entire school is 75 with a standard deviation of 10. What is the probability that a
random sample of 50 students scored above 85?
Answer:
Based on the given values, the population standard deviation is known and n is 50 which is greater than 30. This
suggest that the appropriate test…

In order to make sure that the environment does not affect your experiment, you divide 13 different petri dishes in half - one side is exposed to soap, the other is a control. You measure the number of colonies that grow in each petri dish and come up with the following results: petri dish soap control 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 10 5 7101911131719 811 10 16 20 171117 2618 21 25 2417 17 17 21 Perform a complete hypothesis test to see if there is a difference in bacterial colonies between the soap and control dishes. Again - notice that you are given no advice. You need to figure this out on your own, although this one should be a bit easier than (4).

Use α = 0.01.arrow_forwardUsing specific data, we find a significant difference in the proportion of fruit flies surviving after 13 days between those eating organic potatoes and those eating conventional (not organic) potatoes. This exercise asks you to conduct a hypothesis test using additional data. In this case, we are testing Ho: Po = Pc Ha: Po > Pc o where p and p represent the proportion of fruit flies alive at the end of the given time frame of those eating organic food and those eating conventional food, respectively. Use a 5 % significance level. Effect of Organic Bananas After 25 Days After 25 days, the proportion of fruit flies eating organic bananas still alive is 0.44, while the proportion still alive eating conventional bananas is 0.41. The standard error for the difference in proportions is 0.032. What is the value of the test statistic? Round your answer to two decimal places. Z = i What is the p-value?
