- ❎❎❎❎✅✅✅✅✅✅✅arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is not true? There is only one median for each variable. One definition of the median states that, for an odd number of observations, the median is the middle score when scores are placed in order of magnitude. Another term for the median is 50th percentile. The median is generally more sensitive to (i.e., affected by) the presence of a few extreme observations than is the mean.arrow_forwardCalcium levels in people are normally distributed with a mean of 9.7 mgdL and a standard deviation of 0.5 mgdL . Individuals with calcium levels in the bottom 10% of the population are considered to have low calcium levels. Find the calcium level that is the borderline between low calcium levels and those not considered low. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to one decimal place.arrow_forward
- Lecture(10.8): The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test has a standard score mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. You tested a class of grade 2 students wonderinf if these scores would be different from the population. After testing this hypotheses you decided to continue looking at this data to determine if there are any group differences based on birth order. You group the children the on whether they are the oldest chlid, middle child, or the youngest child. Here is the data based on grouped information. Oldest child: 87 84 98 104 106 91 96 92 Middle child: 65 74 62 60 73 64 71 78 Youngest child: 115 84 85 83 95 94 108 102 89 Test the hypotheses at (alpha=0.05) level of signifance using the 5 step procedure.Make sure to clearly state the null and alternative hypotheses.Round your answer to 2 decimal.
