The Nero Match Company sells matchboxes that are supposed to have an average of 40 matches per box, with o = 8. A random sample of 92 matchboxes shows the average number of matches per box to be 42.9. Using a 1% level of significance, can you say that the average number of matches per box is more than 40? What are we testing in this problem? O single mean O single proportion (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. O Ho: H = 40; H1: H + 40 O Ho: p = 40; H: p > 40 O Ho: H = 40; H1: µ 40 (b) What sampling distribution will you use? What assumptions are you making? O The Student's t, since we assume that x has a normal distribution with unknown o. O The standard normal, since we assume that x has a normal distribution with unknown o. O The Student's t, since we assume that x has a normal distribution with known o. O The standard normal, since we assume that x has a normal distribution with known o. What is the value of the sample test statistic?…

A sample of N = 9 individuals participates in a repeated measures study that produces a sample mean difference of X = 4.25 with SS = 128 for the difference scores. Is this mean difference large enough to be considered a real positive effect?

Describe a study in which you can use both nonparametric and parametric statistics. A researcher has participants expecting to receive either painful or mild electrical shocks during a study wait in a quarter-full waiting room with other participants. He then measures whether they choose to sit next to other participants or if they sit far away on their own. What is the best test to run for this study and why?
