- What is an experiment? Give two examples.arrow_forwardWhat is a sample space?arrow_forwardDetermine the first step of hypothesis testing, and explain the procedure and logic of this step. Choose the correct answer below. A. The first step is to determine the level of significance at which to conduct the hypothesis test. The conventional levels of significance used are 5% and 1%, which are described as the 0.05 significance level and the 0.01 significance level, respectively. When a sample score is so extreme that researchers reject the null hypothesis, the result is said to be statistically significant. B. The first step is to restate the question as a research hypothesis and a null hypothesis about the populations. Since researchers are interested in the results in terms of the population, it is useful to restate the research question in terms of populations. The research hypothesis represents the research question being asked. C. The first step is to determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution.

- Assume you want to know whether the prices of meatballs change during the christmas holiday season. You therefore go to 14 meat-stores before the holiday to check the prices of one kilo of meatballs. In the middle of the holidays, you walk around to the same 14 meat-stores and check the prices again. The results of your research is seen in the table in the picture below. Make a hypothesis test, where you test whether the prices have changed between the two surveys.

Identify the type I error. Choose the correct answer below. OA. Reject the null hypothesis that the percentage of adults who retire at age 65 is less than 62% when it is actually true. OB. Fail to reject the null hypothesis that the percentage of adults who retire at age 65 is greater than or equal to 62% when it is actually false. OC. Fail to reject the null hypothesis that the percentage of adults who retire at age 65 is less than 62% when it is actually false. OD.
