Manual Dexterity Differences A researcher wishes to see if there is a difference in the manual dexterity of athletes and that of band members. Two random samples of 22 are selected from each group and are given a manual dexterity test. The mean of the athletes' test was 88, and the mean of the band members' test was 86. The population standard deviation for the test is 7.8. Use u₁ for the mean of the athletes' test. At a = 0.05, is there a significant difference in the mean scores? Use the critical value method and tables.

Life on Other Planets Forty-three percent of people believe that there is life on other planets in the universe. A scientist does not agree with this finding. He surveyed 120 randomly selected individuals and found 69 believed that there is life on other planets. At α=0.01, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage differs from 43% ?

K The P-value for a hypothesis test is shown. Use the P-value to decide whether to reject Ho when the level of significance is (a) a= 0.01, (b) a = 0.05, and (c) a = 0.10. P=0.0647 .. (a) Do you reject or fail to reject Ho at the 0.01 level of significance? OA. Reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0647, is greater than α=0.01. O B. Fail to reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0647, is less than α = 0.01. O C. Fail to reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0647, is greater than a = 0.01. OD. Reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0647, is less than a = 0.01. (b) Do you reject or fail to reject Ho at the 0.05 level of significance? OA. Fail to reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0647, is greater than α=0.05. OB. Reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0647, is greater than a = 0.05. OC. Reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0647, is less than a = 0.05. O D. Fail to reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0647, is less than a = 0.05. (c) Do you reject or fail to reject Ho at the 0.10 level of significance? 1

Describe the type I error. Choose the correct answer below. OA. A type I error will occur when the actual proportion of new customers who return to buy their next piece of furniture is at least 0.40, but you fail to reject Ho: p20.40. OB. A type I error will occur when the actual proportion of new customers who return to buy their next piece furniture is at least 0.40, but you reject Ho: p20.40. OC. A type I error will occur when the actual proportion of new customers who return to buy their next piece of furniture is no more than 0.40, but you reject Ho: p ≤ 0.40. OD. A type I error will occur when the actual proportion of new customers who return to buy their next piece f furniture is no more than 0.40, but you fail to reject Ho: p ≤0.40. Describe the type II error. Choose the correct answer…
his question refers to excavations at a national monument. One question the archaeologists asked was: Is raw material used by prehistoric Indians for stone tool manufacture independent of the archaeological excavation site? Two different excavation sites gave the information in the following table. Use a chi-square test with 5% level of significance to test the claim that raw material used for construction of stone tools and excavation site are independent. Excavation Site Material Site A Site B Row Total Basalt 756 559 1315 Obsidian 92 103 195 Pedernal chert 514 521 1035 Other 88 91 179 Column Total 1450 1274 2724 (a) What is the level of significance? (b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. (Round the expected frequencies to at least three decimal places. Round the test statistic to three decimal places.)
