When exposed to an infection, a person typically develops antibodies. The extent to which theantibodies respond can be measured by looking at a persons titer, which is a measure of the number of antibodies present. The higher the titer is, the more antibodies that are present. The data in Table represent the titers of 11 ill people and 11 healthy people exposed to the tularemia virus in Vermont. Is the level of titer in the ill group greater than the level of titer in the healthy group? Use the α = 0.10 level of significance.
A researcher wonders whether younger mothers have babies that are significantly heavier or
lighter than the population average of μ 7.25 pounds. The researcher collects data from N
= 35 babies who were born to mothers between the ages of 16 and 18. The average weight
for these babies was M = 7.15 pounds (SD = .6 pounds).
One study investigated whether the thickness of the banana peel is related to the banana variety and the fertilizer used. The research examined 4 different banana varieties and 3 different fertilizers.The following values were calculated from the data:SSr = 3.4
SSc =1.3
SSe =1.2The research first set out to find out if there is a difference in the average thickness of the banana peel between the fertilizers used. The used fertilizers are presented in the material with columns.Calculate the p-value of the test. Give the answer to two decimal places. Remember the correct decimal separator.
