Need all questions answered.

 

Options for last question are:

A) flatter and more spread out

B) more like the z distribution

The average age at which adolescent girls reach their adult height is 16 years.
Suppose you have a sample of 29 adolescent girls who are developmentally delayed, and who have an average age at which they reached their adult
height of 17.8 years and a sample variance of 77.4 years. You want to test the hypothesis that adolescent girls who are developmentally delayed have
a different age at which they reached their adult height than all adolescent girls.
Calculate the t statistic. To do this, you first need to calculate the estimated standard error. The estimated standard error is SM=
The t
statistic is
Now suppose you have a larger sample size n = 91. Calculate the estimated standard error and the t statistic for this sample with the same sample
average and the same standard deviation as above, but with the larger sample size. The new estimated standard error is
The new t
statistic is
Note that the t statistic becomes
as n becomes larger.

lines. Slowly move the Degrees of Freedom slider from the smallest value to the largest value, and observe how the shape of the distribution
changes.)
