DDT is a pesticide banned in the United States for its danger to humans and animals. In an experiment on the impact of DDT, six rats were exposed to DDT poisoning and six rats were not exposed. For each rat in the experiment, a measurement of nerve sensitivity was recorded. The researchers suspected that the mean nerve sensitivity for rats exposed to DDT is greater than that for rats not poisoned. The data are displayed.
Poisoned rats 12.207 16.869 25.050 22.429 8.456 20.589
Unpoisoned rats 11.074 9.686 12.064 9.351 8.182 6.642
Let μ1 be the mean nerve sensitivity for rats poisoned with DDT. Let μ2 be the mean nerve sensitivity for rats not poisoned with DDT. Using Table C and the conservative version for degrees of freedom (Option 2), the P-value is:
larger than 0.1.
between 0.05 and 0.1.
between 0.01 and 0.05.
below 0.01.
DDT is a pesticide banned in the United States for its danger to humans and animals.
There is pesticide banned in the United States for its danger to living things called DDT. In an experiment, 6 mice were exposed to DDT poisoning and 6 mice were not. For each mouse in the experiment, a measurement of their body sensitivity was recorded. The researchers suspected that the mean body sensitivity for mice exposed to DDT is greater than that for mice not poisoned. The data follow: Mice with DDT: 12.207 16.869 25.050 22.429 8.456 20.589 Mice without...
