Twelve pairs of indentical twins take tests to measure their aggression on a scale from 0 to 100, where 100 is the most aggressive. The researchers' question is whether first born and second born twins differ in mean aggressiveness. We assume that first born scores, second born scores, and their differences are all approximately normal, and there are no outliers. First born Second born 86 88 71 77 77 76 68 64 91 96 87 72 a. Is this a...
A research was done to see if the firs- born twins have a higher IQ than the second-born twins. In the study, 10 pairs of twins are randomly selected, and their data are summarized as below: Group Mean Stand Deviation Min Max First Born 108 7.2 75 120 Second Born 103 8.1 72 115 Diff First - Second 5 7.3 -3 12 (1) (8pts) Perform an appropriate statistical inference to answer the research question. (if this is a two independent...
2. Suppose IQ scores were obtained from randomly selected twins. For 20 such pairs of people, the linear correlation coefficient is 0.849 and the equation of the regression line is ŷ=0.68+0.99x, where x represents the IQ score of the twin born first. Also, the 20 x values have a mean of 100.9 and the 20 y values have a mean of 100.5. What is the best predicted IQ of the twin born second, given that the twin born first has...

Let's now perform a mean-matched pairs test to test the claim that there is no mean difference between the age of males and females. For the context of this problem, d=x2−x1where the first data set represents actress (female) ages and the second data set represents male (actor) ages. We'll continue to use a significance of 0.05.
