I need help filling out the “Q-Test Determination” as well as the “Post-Lab Questions” The directions are in the first three pictures, and the questions I need answered are in the last two pictures....
O-Test Datum Rejection We may be in a situation where one data value apparently has a strong influence on the mean of a set of data Assume we have 6 data points to analyze to be sure that each point is a viable part of the set: in other words, it's not "way off from the rest of the data. Consider the data set: 44.7 43.3 46.2 45.146.5 69.2 The 69.2 value appears to be out of class, i.c. it comes from a different population. Notice how this number affects the calculated mean: 44.7+43.3+46.2 +45.1+46.5+69.2 6 Whereas 44.7+ 43.3 +46.2 +45.1+46.5 45.16 Since the mean obtained using 69.2 is very different from the majority of the data, we suspect it is out of class. The O-test is often used to test this hypothesis. Like Student's t-test, we calculate a O value under a null hypothesis: i.e., data are the same, and then compare it to a statistical table value using the logical scheme Qable, then null hypothesis is correct f Qealculated Quable then null hypothesis is wrong f Qealculated In the latter event, we would reject the data. The O value is calculated using this formula: GAP Qcalc RANGE where the GAP is difference between the suspect datum (the one that looks out of place) and its nearest neighbor. The RANGE is the difference between the maximum and minimum data in the set.
