A team of researchers would like to determine whether the number of households that use the internet for more than an hour a day is greater in large cities or small towns. To do so, the researchers take two random samples. The first sample consists of randomly selected people who live in cities with more than 500,000 people around the country. The second sample consists of randomly selected people who live in towns with fewer than 20,000 people. Are these samples dependent or independent? Select the correct answer below: O These samples are independent. O These samples are dependent. Not enough information is provided to determine independence.

A researcher is interested in examining whether the location that a person lives is related to the number of hours that they spend on the internet each week.  The researcher collected data from a sample of 30 participants who were classified in one of three groups: (1) 10 people who live in an urban setting, (2) 10 people who live in a suburban setting, and (3) 10 people who live in a rural setting.  Each participant reported the number of hours they spend on the internet in a typical week (the dependent variable).  The researcher found the following descriptive statistics: Urban participants reported an average of 8.9 hours of internet use per week with a standard deviation of 2.77. Suburban participants reported an average of 12.7 hours of internet use per week with a standard deviation of 4.88. Rural participants reported an average of 9.8 hours of internet use per week with a standard deviation of 2.82.   Using the data that was collected, the researcher found the following: The…

The relative effectiveness of two different sales techniques was tested on 12 volunteer housewives. Each housewife was exposed to each sales technique and asked to buy a certain product, the same product in all cases. At the end of each exposure, each housewife rated the technique with a 1 if she felt she would have agreed to buy the product and a 0 if she probably would not have bought the product.

You may need to use the appropriate technology to answer this question. Periodically, customers of a financial services company are asked to evaluate the company's financlal consultants and services. Higher ratings on the client satisfaction survey indicate better service, with 7 the maximum service rating. Independent samples of service ratings for two financial consultants are summarized here. Consultant A has 10 years of experience, whereas consultant B has 1 year of experience. Use a = 0.05 and test to see whether the consultant with more experience has the higher population mean service rating. ConsultantA Consultant B = 16 n2 = 10 x, 6.83 x2 = 6.28 5- 0.68 52 = 0.75 (a) State the null and alternative hypotheses.
