Retention Teat ScoresAample of non-Engliah majora ata elected college wa ued ina atudy to see if the
student retained more from reading - 19th century novel or by watching it in DVD form. Each student wa Bigned
one novel to read and a different one to watch, and then they were given a 20-point written quiz on each novel. The
test results are ahoven below. At a= 0.01. can it be concluded that the book acores are higher than the DVD sores?
Assume rhe variahle are normanily dieertbuted.

(-) Statu the hypothuaua nd iduntify th claim with the correct hypothwaa.
(b) Find th P-value.
(e) Make the decinion.
(d) Summarize the reaulta.
(a) State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis.
The null hypothesis H, is the statement that the difference between the matched pairs is zero. This is equivalent to un = 0.
The alternative hypothesis H, is the statement that the difference between the matched pairs is not zero. Since we are interested to see if the
reading quiz scores are higher than the DVD quiz scores, the differences must be greater than zero. This is equivalent to un>0.
The problem asks if it can "be concluded that the book scores are higher than the DVD scores." Hence, the claim is the alternative hypothesis
(b) Find the P-value.
The TI-83 Plus/TI-84 Plus graphing calculators do not provide a t test for the difference between means for dependent samples. However, the
differences between the paired data in two lists can be calculated in a third list and then the single sample t test can be applied on that third
list of data.

(c) Make the decision.
Hence, the null hypothesis is rejected as the P-value is less than a= 0.01.

(d) Summarize the results.
Since the null hypothesis was rejected, there is enough evidence to support the claim.
The P-value is 0.0009 rounded to 4 decimal places.

- two exams were given to a class. The scores on the first exam ranged from 30 to 90, and the scores on the second exam ranged from 70 to 75. You are asked to guess the mean score for each exam. Which of your guesses do you think is more likely to be closer to the true mean? Why?arrow_forwardA health journal conducted a study to see if packaging a healthy food product like junk food would influence children's desire to consume the product. A fictitious brand of a healthy food product-sliced apples-was packaged to appeal to children. The researchers showed the packaging to a sample of 348 school children and asked each whether he or she was willing to eat the product. Willingness to eat was measured on a 5-point scale, with 1 = "not willing at all" and 5 = "very willing." The data are summarized as x = 3.56 and s=2.19. Suppose the researchers knew that the mean willingness to eat an actual brand of sliced apples (which is not packaged for children) is µ = 3. Complete parts a and b below. a. Conduct a test to determine whether the true mean willingness to eat the brand of sliced apples packaged for children exceeded 3. Use α = 0.10 to make your conclusion.

A group of home gardeners want to test whether the type of soil used to grow heirloom tomatoes has an effect on the number of tomatoes harvested. Gardeners randomly assigned tomato plants to be grown in soil with no fertilizer, commercial plant food, and homemade compost. All other growing conditions were kept the same. Forty plants were assigned to each group. At the end of the growing season the number of tomatoes harvested was counted. Assume that all other conditions for the ANOVA test have been met.State the null and alternative hypothesis.arrow_forward
