The manager of the cosmetics section of a large department store wants to determine whether newspaper advertising really does affect sales. For her experiment, she randomly selects 15 items currently in stock and proceeds to establish a baseline. The 15 items are priced at their usual competitive values, and the quantity of each item sold for a 1-week period is recorded. Then, without changing their price, she places a large ad in the newspaper, advertising the 15 items. Again, she records the quantity sold for a 1-week period. The results follow.

DIRECTIONS: Identify the appropriate hypothesis test for each of the following research situations labeled (a) - (d). Make
sure to label your responses clearly!
a. A researcher wants to see whether that is a significant difference people who sleep 4 hours per day and those who sleep
8 hours per day their work productivity.
b. A researcher conducts a study to examine the relationship between happiness level and number of hours a kid spend
time with their parents during summer time.
C. A researcher would like to determine whether a nutrition milk will benefit for 6 months baby, a group of n=100 6
months baby is measured about their healthy level before and after nutrition milk is provided
d. A researcher would like to determine whether there is a significant different between 2 months, 4 months and 6 months
baby from drinking nutrition milk for 6 weeks on their healthy level
(c) Calculate the test statistic.
d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. Then interpret the decision in the context of the original claim.
