Standardized test scores For his Statistics class experi-ment, researcher J. Gilbert decided to study how parents’
income affects children’s performance on standardizedtests like the SAT. He proposed to collect informationfrom a random sample of test takers and examine therelationship between parental income and SAT score.a) Is this an experiment? If not, what kind of study is it?b) If there is relationship between parental incomeand SAT score, why can’t we conclude that differencesin score are caused by differences in parentalincome?
The non-parametric test for determining the difference between two
populations based on paired samples is
Kruskal Wallis test
O Test for randomness
O None of these
O Mann-Whitney U test
O Median test for randomness
TOSHIBA

Eight brand 1 tires and six brand 2 tires were tested. Customers prefer tires with high levels of life. The data below shows the life for both brands, in thousands of kilometers. (Image) a) Test the hypothesis of equality of variances for the life of the two tire brands. This is a two-sided (bilateral) test. Use an α = 0.05. b) Test the hypothesis of equality of means for the life of the two tire brands. Use α = 0.05. Which tire brands would you buy, if the price is the same?arrow_forwardIn a statistical test, we have a choice of a left-tailed test, a right-tailed test, or a two-tailed test. Is it the null hypothesis or the alternate hypothesis that determines which type of test is used? Explain your answer. The alternative hypothesis because it specifies what the level of significance of the test will be. The null hypothesis because it specifies what the level of significance of the test will be. The null hypothesis because it specifies the region of interest for the parameter in question. The alternative hypothesis because it specifies the region of interest for the parameter in question.arrow_forward
