A farmer wants to know whether or not the sizes of Christmas trees differ between two separate fields on opposite sides of the farm (different elevation). In order to test this, he plants a number of trees in each field and measures them all after 2.5 years of growth. He then takes a random sample from each field and this is what he found: Group 1: Higher Elevation, N=25, Mean=3.3 ft, S=0.55 ft Group 2: Lower Elevation, N=23, Mean= 3.1, S=0.45 ft   Please calculate the test statistic and pvalue. What can be concluded?  Support your answer. Please calculate the 95% confidence interval Interpret the interval. What can be concluded?  Support your answer.

A transect is an archaeological study area that is 1/5 mile wide and 1 mile long. A site in a transect is the location of a significant archaeological find. Let x represent the number of sites per transect. In a section of Chaco Canyon, a large number of transects showed that x has a population variance ?2 = 42.3. In a different section of Chaco Canyon, a random sample of 19 transects gave a sample variance s2 = 46.9 for the number of sites per transect. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the variance in the new section is greater than 42.3. Find a 95% confidence interval for the population variance. (b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)- 19.96 What are the degrees of freedom? -18 (c) Find or estimate the P-value of the sample test statistic.

the data support the claim that the average ACT composite score of students from this students is randomly selected from a local high school with an X = 23 and s = 5.2. Do ACT composite scores are normally distributed with a u = 21. A sample of 25 students is randomly selected from a local high school with an X= 23 and s =5.L.D high school is different than 21 on the ACT composite score, using x = .05?

Executives of a supermarket chain are interested in the amount of time that customers spend in the stores during shopping trips. The mean shopping time,  μ , spent by customers at the supermarkets has been reported to be  36  minutes, but executives hire a statistical consultant and ask her to determine whether it can be concluded that  μ  is greater than  36  minutes. The consultant plans to do a statistical test and collects a random sample of  50  shopping times at the supermarkets. Suppose that the population of shopping times at the supermarkets has a standard deviation of  16  minutes and that the consultant performs her hypothesis test using the  0.05  level of significance.

Two major automobile manufacturers have produced compact cars with engines of the same size. We are interested in determining whether or not there is a significant difference in the mean MPG (miles per gallon) when testing for the fuel efficiency of these two brands of automobiles. A random sample of eight cars from each manufacturer is selected, and eight drivers are selected to drive each automobile for a specified distance. The following data (in miles per gallon) show the results of the test. Assume the population of differences is normally distributed. Driver Manufacturer A Manufacturer B 1 36 30 2 31 31 3 30 28 4 30 27 5 29 27 6 33 30 7 35 25 8 29 31 The test statistic is 2.316. At  ? = 0.10,  the null hypothesis   should be revised .should not be tested.     should be rejected. should not be rejected.

If a researcher wants to conduct a two-tailed single sample + test with data from 30 participants and an alpha level of 0.05, what is the correct critical value? a. 2.043 b. 1699 c. 2045 d. 1.698

Let x represent the number of sites per transect. In a section of Chaco Canyon, a large number of transects showed that x has a population variance ?2 = 42.3. In a different section of Chaco Canyon, a random sample of 21 transects gave a sample variance s2 = 49.3 for the number of sites per transect. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the variance in the new section is greater than 42.3................
