Mrs. Jen and Miss Berry, two 4th grade teachers, didn’t want to be outdone by Raskin and Bobbins, so they challenged them to fill in the remaining data below about their 4th grade classes and their students’ ice cream preferences. See if you can fill in all of the missing pieces in the diagrams below. For these students as well, they had to choose one topping, but could not choose both.

Here we have data that represent the results of a study comparing different viewing distances for a 42 inch high definition television. Four viewing distances were evaluated, 9 feet, 12 feet, 15 feet and 18 feet. Each participant watched a 30 minute television program from one of the distances and then rated the viewing distance on a scale from 1 (Very Bad, definitely need to move closer or father away) to 7 (excellent, perfect viewing distance). The following day, the participants returned and watched another program from a different distance. This process continued until all five participants had experienced and rated all four distances.

- In real-life applications, statistics helps us analyze data to extract information about a population. In this module discussion, you will take on the role of Susan, a high school principal. She is planning on having a large movie night for the high school. She has received a lot of feedback on which movie to show and sees differences in movie preferences by gender and also by grade level. She knows if the wrong movie is shown, it could reduce event turnout by 50%. She would like to maximize the number of students who attend and would like to select a PG-rated movie based on the overall student population's movie preferences. Each student is assigned a classroom with other students in their grade. She has a spreadsheet that lists the names of each student, their classroom, and their grade. Susan knows a simple random sample would provide a good representation of the population of students at their high school, but wonders if a different method would be better.

You discovered a program for sales personnel that supposedly improve interpersonal skills and thus help settle deals with customers more often. You decide to send8 of your sales people for the training, and compare the amount they brought in sales in the month before they went and in the month after they received the training. The data are: Xbefore: 400, 300, 1200, 2100, 700, 450, 650, 3400 Xafter: 1000, 400, 1000, 2500, 1200, 600, 800, 3000 A. Identify the appropriate statistical measure to use. B. Conduct the test. Make a decision about the null hypothesis, interpret your results and calculate effect size if applicable. At ?=.05, can you report to upper management that the training worked? Or was it a waste of money? C. Calculate 95% confidence intervals for the estimate of the difference.arrow_forward
