The measurement tools both require the child teacher to fillout a question about the child, you give both questionares to Avery teacher and obtain two scores. On the CBCL, Avery score is is 68.On the BASC, Avery score is 32. The CBCL has a mean of 100 and a stardard deviation of 15. The BASC has a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. (a) what is Avery z score on CBCL (b) What is Avery z score on BASC (c) On which test is Avery score lower relative to the population (CBCL/BASC) (d) The cutoff score for clinical diagnosis for both tests of -2 on either test are considerd clinically signifcantly concern. Do these tests give the same resultling diagnosis ? (yesy/no)arrow_forwardThe average McDonald's restaurant generates $2.6 million in sales each year with a standard deviation of 1.

- A business school dean in Ohio wants to know if graduates who completed an internship during their undergraduate years earn more than business undergraduates who do not complete an internship while in college. Based on national survey from 1,500 business alumni with less than six years of work experience, they earn on average $50,970 with a standard deviation of $12,976. Business alumni from the Ohio school who completed internships on average earned $53,497. The dean wants you to be 96% confident in your results. a. State in statistical terms the null and alternative hypotheses. b. Determine the appropriate test statistic (z or t). c. Determine the critical value(s). d. Compute the test statistic. e. Make a decision on the hypotheses. (which hypothesis is correct?) f.
