Bob and Teresa each collect their own samples to test the same hypothesis. Bob’s p-value turns out to be 0.05, and Teresa’s turns out to be 0.01.
Why don’t Bob and Teresa get the same p-values?
Who has stronger evidence against the null hypothesis: Bob or Teresa?
Review a classmate's Main Post.
1. State if you agree or disagree with the choices made for additional analysis
that can be done beyond the frequency table.
2. Choose a measure of central tendency (mean, median, mode) that you
would like to compute with the data beyond the frequency table. Complete
either a or b below.
a. Explain how that analysis can help you understand the data better.
b. If you are currently unable to do that analysis, what do you think you
could do to make it possible? If you do not think you can do
anything, explain why it is not possible.

- Suppose the Internal Revenue Service reported that the mean tax refund for the year 2022 was $3401. Assume the standard deviation is $82.5 and that the amounts refunded follow a normal probability distribution. Solve the following three parts? (For the answer to question 14, 15, and 16, start with making a bell curve. Identify on the bell curve where is mean, X, and area(s) to be determined. 1.What percent of the refunds are more than $3,500? 2.

Once marked on the bell curve, figure out what calculations are needed to find the area of interest. =NORM.DIST(x, Mean, Standard Dev., TRUE). When the question mentions “greater than” you may have to subtract your answer from 1. When the question mentions “between (two values)”, you need to do separate calculation for both values and then subtract their results to get the answer. 1.
