Answer to Problem 1CQ
The value of test statistic is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The data is
Concept used:
The test statistic is,
If the
If the sample size is greater than
Here, the number of times the less frequent sign occur is
The conditions for test statistics are shown below in table.
Type of test | Test statistic |
Right-tailed test | Number of minus signs |
Left-tailed test | Number of plus signs |
Two-tailed test | Number of plus or minus signs, whichever is smaller |
Calculations:
The value of test statistic is shown below.
Sample | Difference | Signs |
50 | 20 | - |
38 | 8 | + |
23 | -7 | - |
29 | -1 | - |
57 | 27 | + |
26 | -4 | - |
53 | 23 | + |
42 | 12 | + |
60 | 30 | + |
23 | -7 | - |
From the above table, the number of minus sign is
Since, the sample size is less than
The test statistic is given by the number of plus or minus sign which are smaller in number.
Therefore, the value of test statistic for the given sample is

Each time the wheel is spun, the result is one of the outcomes 0, 1, and so on through 36. Of these outcomes, 18 are red, 18 are black, and 1 is green. On each spin you bet $5 that a red outcome will occur and $1 that the green outcome will occur. If red occurs, you win a net $4. (You win $10 from red and nothing from green.) If green occurs, you win a net $24. (You win $30 from green and nothing from red.) If black occurs, you lose everything you bet for a loss of $6. a. Use simulation to generate 1,000 plays from this strategy. Each play should indicate the net amount won or lost. Then, based on these outcomes, calculate a 95% confidence interval for the total net amount won or lost from 1,000 plays of the game. (Round your answers to two decimal places and if your answer is negative value, enter "minus" sign.)

- Let us suppose we have some article reported on a study of potential sources of injury to equine veterinarians conducted at a university veterinary hospital. Forces on the hand were measured for several common activities that veterinarians engage in when examining or treating horses. We will consider the forces on the hands for two tasks, lifting and using ultrasound. Assume that both sample sizes are 6, the sample mean force for lifting was 6.2 pounds with standard deviation 1.5 pounds, and the sample mean force for using ultrasound was 6.4 pounds with standard deviation 0.3 pounds. Assume that the standard deviations are known. Suppose that you wanted to detect a true difference in mean force of 0.25 pounds on the hands for these two activities. Under the null hypothesis, 40 0.
