Question
A track coach is trying to decide whether to recommend a new running shoe by Converse or his preferred shoe
by Nike. The coach decides to recruit four of his runners to run one kilometer with each shoe type. The coach
spreads his experiment over two days, to allow his runners to rest. Below are the run times in minutes. Are the run
times for the two types of shoes different? Does it matter? states null and alternative hypothesis, an alpha level of 0.05 test null hypothesis, draw rejection region, effect size, conclusion

This year, a certain state kept track of the number of its 1325 complaints were for identity theft. They want to know if the data provide enough evidence to show that this state had a different proportion of identity theft than 23%? State the random variable, population parameter, and hypotheses.

The null hypothesis is that the population mean SAT score of the seniors is equal to the population mean SAT score of the freshmen. You randomly sample 20 students in each grade and have them take the SAT. You find that the sample mean of the seniors is significantly higher than the sample mean of the freshmen. Which alternative hypothesis is accepted? The population mean SAT score of the seniors is less than the population mean SAT score of the freshmen. The population mean SAT score of the seniors is greater than the population mean SAT score of the freshmen. You cannot be sure which alternative hypothesis to accept. You just know that the null hypothesis was rejectedarrow_forward
