A study was designed to study the effect on miles per gallon with and without a fuel additive. 15 automobiles were tested with and without the additive and the results compared. This is an example of a:
A Paired t-test
B 1-Sample t-test
C 2-Sample t-test
D Test for equal variances
Answer.A paired t test
Since we know that The paired sample t-test, sometimes called the dependent sample t-test, is a statistical procedure used to determine whether the mean difference between two sets of observations is zero. In a paired sample t-test, each subject or entity is measured twice, resulting in pairs of observations.

5. Thirty automobiles were tested for fuel efficiency in miles per gallon. The following frequency distribution was obtained. Calculate the mean. Class Boundaries Frequency 7.5-12.5 12.5-17.5 17.5-22.5 225-275 27.5-32.5 a 552 b.20.33 c.610 d. 25
A research firm tests the miles-per-gallon characteristics of three brands of gasoline. Be- cause of different gasoline performance characteristics in different brands of automobiles five brands of automobiles are selected and treated as blocks in the experiment; that is. each brand of automobile is tested with each type of gasoline. The results of the experiment (in miles per gallon) follow. 40. Gasoline Brands 21 20 24 30 Automobiles 29 25 23 24 24 20 a. At a- 05, is there...

7. Bastien, Inc, has been manufacturing small automobiles that have averaged 50 miles per gallon of gasoline in highway driving. The company has developed a more efficient engine for its small cars and now advertises that its new small cars average more than 50 miles per gallon in highway driving. An independent testing service road-tested 36 of the automobiles. The sample showed an average of 51.5 miles per gallon with a standard deviation of 6 miles per gallon. Using the...
Ahmadi, Inc. has been manufacturing small automobiles that have averaged 50 miles per gallon of gasoline in highway driving. The company has developed a more efficient engine for its small cars and now advertises that its new small cars average more than 50 miles per gallon in highway driving. To test this hypothesis at 98% level of confidence, an independent testing service road-tested 64 of the automobiles. The sample showed an average of 51 miles per gallon. Assume that the...

In this exercise involving paired differences, consider that it is reasonable to assume the populations being compared have approximately the same shape and that the distribution of paired differences is approximately symmetric. Two fuel additives are tested to determine their effect on miles per gallon for passenger cars. Suppose test results for 12 cars follow; each car was tested with both fuel additives. Additive Car 1 1 | 2 20.12 19.05 23.56 20.77 2 3 21.03 22.57 4 20.15 17.06...
