A student measuring how gasoline prices change records the cost of gas at 10 randomly selected stations in her hometown. One week later, she records the price again at the same 10 stations. Are these data paired or independent?
The lowest mark scored for a certain examination in a statistics class is 11. If the midrange of the marks in the class is 29, find the highest mark scored.
uppose Laura, a facilities manager at a health and wellness company, wants to estimate the difference in the average amount of time that men and women spend at the company's fitness centers each week.
Laura randomly selects 13 adult male fitness center members from the membership database and then selects 13 adult female members from the database. Laura gathers data from the past month containing logged time at the fitness center for these members. She plans to use the data to estimate the difference in the time men and women spend per week at the fitness center. The sample statistics are summarized in the table.
