- 1. Metal Tags on Penguins and Length of Foraging Trips. Data were collected over a 10-year timespan from a sample of penguins that were randomly given either metal or electronic tags. One variable examined is the length of foraging trips. Longer foraging trips can jeopardize both breeding success and survival of chicks waiting for food. From a sample of 344 foraging trips for metal-tagged penguins, the mean length was 12.70 days. From a sample of 512 foraging trips for electronic-tagged penguins, mean length was 11.60 days. Test whether foraging trips are longer on average among metal-tagged penguins than among electronic-tagged penguins. a. State hypotheses in terms of two means. b. Calculate the sample statistic XM - XE c. An estimate of the standard error for this difference of means is SE-0.2834. Calculate a test statistic to two decimal places. d.

Your doctor is going to review the results with you but based on what you know about z-scores you can infer: a.The average person of your stature is 1.7 deviations below you. b.Your HDL level is slightly below average. c.The score is negative so this will be good news. d.Your HDL level is extremely low for a person of your stature.arrow_forward
- To examine the effect of relaxing music on math test performance, a researcher wants to compare the average math test scores of participants who completed the test with relaxing music to performance of participants who completed the same math test without music. The partially computed data collected in the study are shown below: Math Test with Music: Math Test without Music: n1 = 16 n2 = 12 M1 = 82 M2 = 78 SS1 = 150 SS2 = 140 Based on these results, is there a significant effect of relaxing music on math test performance? Use a t-test for independent samples with p < .01, 2-tails to answer this research question. Follow the steps of hypothesis testing and insert your answers below.
