Homework Answers
In order to compare the mean age of males and females, the means of the two groups are compared using the t test under the assumption that both samples are random, independent, and normally distributed with unknown but equal variances. Therefore the correct option is an independent samples comparison of population means.

A study to compare the means of the age x at first marriage of
men and women obtained the information shown, where the men and
women were sampled independently of one another. We may assume that
the populations of ages are normally distributed with approximately
equal standard deviations.

5. A study was conducted to determine whether the mean braking distance of four-cylinder cars is greater than the mean braking distance of six-cylinder cars. A random sample of 20 four-cylinder cars and a random sample of 20 six-cylinder cars were obtained, and the braking distances were measured. (a) What would be the appropriate hypothesis test for this analysis? (i) t-test for two independent samples (ii) t-test for dependent samples (iii) z-test for population mean (iv) correlation (b) Explain the...

To study metabolism of insects, researchers fed 20 cockroaches a measured amount of a sugar solution. After 10 hours, they dissected the cockroaches and measured the amount of sugar in various tissues. The researchers wish to use the resulting data to estimate the mean amount of sugar in all cockroaches after 10 hours. Hypothesis test for one population mean (unknown population standard deviation) Confidence interval estimate for one population mean (unknown population standard deviation) Hypothesis test for population mean from paired...

Question 11 Item 11 A study was conducted to investigate whether the mean numbers of snack bars sold at two airport convenience stores, C and D, were different. For ten randomly selected days, the number of snack bars sold at each store was recorded, and the sample mean number of snack bars for each store was calculated. A two-sample tt-test for a difference in means will be conducted. Have all conditions for inference been met? Yes, all conditions have been...
