Question
According to the Carnegie unit system, the recommended number of hours students should study per unit is 2. Are statistics students' study hours less than the recommended number of hours per unit? The data show the results of a survey of 11 statistics students who were asked how many hours per unit they studied. Assume a
0, 1.5, 3.3, 2.5, 1.8, 0, 2.1, 3, 0.1, -0, 2
What can be concluded at the αα = 0.01 level of significance?
- The null and alternative hypotheses would be:
H0:H0: ? μ p Correct Select an answer = < > ≠ Correct
H1:H1: ? μ p Correct Select an answer ≠ > = < Correct
- The test statistic ? z t Correct = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.)
- The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.

The fish were placed in ice storage at different times after being caught. A measure of fish quality was given to each fish after 7 days in ice storage. The sample data are shown below, where "Time" is the number of hours after being caught that the fish was placed in ice storage and "Fish Quality" is the measure given to each fish after 7 days in ice storage (higher numbers mean better quality). Which variable would be considered the response variable? Fish Time: 0 0 2 3 5 6 7 9 11 12 Fish Quality 8.5 8.4 8.0 8.1 7.8 7.6 7.3 7.0 6.8 6.7 Choose the correct answer below.

Find the mean, median, and mode of this data. b. Explain which measure of central tendency will best predict how many miles Gina will drive in the sixth year. a. mean= 12,700; median= 13,156; no mode; the mean is the best choice because it is representative of the entire data set. b. mean= 13,156; median= 12,700; mode= 3,628; the median is the best choice because it is not skewed by the high outlier. c. mean= 13,156; median= 12,700; no mode; the mean is the best choice because it is representative of the entire data set. d. mean= 13,156; median= 12,700; no mode; the median is the best choice because it is not skewed by the high outlier.arrow_forwardA sample of 25 freshmen at a major university completed a survey that measured their degree of racial prejudice (the higher the score, the greater the prejudice) Compute the median and mean for these data? 10 43 30 30 45 40 12 40 42 35 45 25 10 33 50 42 32 38 11 47 22 26 37 38 10arrow_forwardEstimate the most likely degree of correlation for the scatterplot Options: a. 0 b. .85 c. -.90 d. -.05arrow_forward
