(4 points) Smart Driver Driving School has many branches across provinces. In a province different from the one in problem 1, the teaching committee at the provincial branch randomly assigned half of their 5000 students enrolled this year to receive the conventional teaching method and the remaining half to receive the new teaching method. In a random sample of 100 students who received the conventional teaching method, 79 passed the road test. In another random sample of 100 students who...

ESAND ABUSES 1 Uses Hypothesis Testing Hypothesis testing is important in many different fields because it gives a scientific procedure for assessing the validity of a claim about a population. Some of the concepts in hypothesis testing are intuitive, but some are not. For instance, the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that eating dark chocolate can help prevent heart disease. A random sample of healthy volunteers were assigned to eat 3.5 ounces of dark chocolate each day for 15...

The University of Michigan's business school claims it has the highest average GPA in the Big 10 among its business students. The business school claims that the business student average GPA is 3.5. Your friend believes that Michigan's claims are falsely inflated. In an effort to prove whether the grades are falsely inflated, your friend collects a random sample of 100 business students from Michigan and gets an average GPA of 3.31 with a standard deviation of 0.3. 1.5. Question...

Background Information: Null Hypothesis Significance Testing (NHST) has long been the workhorse of the scientific method. The procedure, familiar to us from Modules 7-9, is Assume a null hypothesis Calculate a test statistic If the test-statistic reaches the designated significance level (alpha), reject the null hypothesis, usually in favor of the theory you propose Despite its ubiquity, the procedure has received a fair amount of criticism. Some of these critiques are: We often already know the null hypothesis is unlikely...

X1-X2-10 24. Consider the test HoHa-μ2-10 vs. μι-μ2 > 10 using the test statistic z-1-2 n1 n2 Suppose throughout that σ1-15 and σ2 20. a) Find the p-value if X1 -145.8 based on 50 samples and X2 -130.1 based on 50 samples b) Assume that the significance level of the test is 0.03. What is the conclusion?If it turns out that the conclusion was an error, is it a type I or type II error? c) Assuming the significance level...

Questions points Answer the following questions: An entrepreneurial scientist has invented a supplement that she believes can enhance short-term memory. She conducts an experiment to test the effect of the supplement on 23 volunteers, 12 of whom are given a placebo and 11 of whom are given the supplement. In analyzing in her study, she obtains a p-value of 0.19. Which of the following is a reasonable interpretation of her results This proves that at most 19% of the time,...

Albicher with the Department of Education followed a cohort of students who graduated from high school in a certain year, monitoring the progress the students made toward completing a bachelor's degree. One aspect of his research was to determine whether students who first attended community college took longer to attain a bachelor's degree than those who immediately attended and remained at a 4-year institution. The data in the table attached below summarize the results of his study Complete parts a)...

7 points) From previous studies, it has been generally believed that Northern Hemisphere icebergs have a mean depth of 270 meters and a standard deviation of 20 meters. An environmental ist has suggested that global warming has caused icebergs to have greater depth. A team of scientists visiting the Northern Hemisphere observed a random sample of 41 icebergs. The depth of the base of the iceberg below the surface was carefully measured for each and the sample mean and standard...
