A company is doing a hypothesis test on the variation in quality from two suppliers. Both distributions are normal, and the populations are independent. Use a = 0.01. A sample of 26 products were selected from Supplier 1 and a standard deviation of quality was found to be 6.0042. A sample of 25 products were selected from Supplier 2 and a standard deviation of quality was found to be 1.802. Test to see if the variance in quality for Supplier 1 is larger than Supplier 2. What are the correct hypotheses? Note this may view better in full screen mode. Select the correct symbols in the order they appear in the problem. Ho: Select an answer ?✓ Select an answer H₁: Select an answer Select an answer Based on the hypotheses, compute the following: Round answers to at least 4 decimal places. The test statistic is = The p-value is The decision is to Select an answer The correct summary would be: [Select an answer quality for Supplier 1 is larger than Supplier 2. that the variance in

Researchers are interested in the effect of pet companionship on depression in elderly adults. They randomly select 25 participants from the target population and record their depression scores before and after spending a month with a dog (a higher score indicates a higher level of depression). The researchers then compute the difference scores for each participant (difference after before). The mean of differences is - 1 and the standard deviation of differences is 2. Can the researchers conclude that there is an effect of pet companionship on depression in elderly adults? Conduct the appropriate statistical test (two-tailed) with a = .05. Based on the information provided above, which statistical test seems most appropriate? one sample t test O z test independent samples t test O dependent samples t test

Research has shown that, for baseball players, good hip range of motion results in improved performance and decreased body stress. A research article reported on a study of independent samples of 40 professional pitchers and 40 professional position players. For the pitchers, the sample mean hip range of motion was 75.8 degrees and the sample standard deviation was 5.6 degrees, whereas the sample mean and sample standard deviation for position players were 79.9 degrees and 7.2 degrees, respectively. Assuming that the two samples are representative of professional baseball pitchers and position players, test hypotheses appropriate for determining if there is convincing evidence that the mean range of motion for pitchers is less than the mean for position players. (Use  ? = 0.05.  Use ?1 for pitchers and ?2 for position players.)

A custodian wishes to compare two competing floor waxes to decide which one is best. He believes that the mean of WaxWin is greater than the mean of WaxCo. In a random sample of 40 floors of WaxWin and 43 of WaxCo. WaxWin had a mean lifetime of 26.3 and WaxCo had a mean lifetime of 28. The population standard deviation for WaxWin is assumed to be 7.1 and the population standard deviation for WaxCo is assumed to be 6.1. Perform a hypothesis test using a significance level of 0.05 to help him decide. Let WaxWin be sample 1 and WaxCo be sample 2. The correct hypotheses are: O Ho: µ1 H2(claim) Ο H: μι μp HA: H1 < µ2(claim) O Ho: µ1 = 2 HA: μι μ (claim) Since the level of significance is 0.05 the critical value is 1.645 The test statistic is: (round to 3 places) The p-value is: (round to 3 places) The decision can be made to: O reject Ho O do not reject Ho The final conclusion is that: O There is enough evidence to reject the claim that the mean of WaxWin is greater than the mean of WaxCo.…
