- Mr. Palmer, has been teaching beginners how to fix their stroke for the last 10 years. The mean golfing score for all past students who learned with Mr. Palmer is 79. This golfing cycle, he tried a new teaching method using simulations instead of real-world golf. He then had 15 of his students that used his new method take a golfing test. Enter the data into SPSS. Use this dataset to answer this question: did Mr. Palmer’s students perform better on the golfing test using the new method as compared to the traditional teaching technique? 1. From the output, report the test statistic and the probability (obtained p-value, called “sig” in the output). Remember to include degrees of freedom when you report t-values. 2.

Because of the relatively high interest rates, most consumers attempt to pay off their credit card bills promptly. However, this is not always possible.

In a study entitled How Undergraduate Students Use Credit Cards, it was reported that undergraduate students have a mean credit card balance of $3,173.

Assume that a current study is being conducted to determine if it can be concluded that the mean credit card balance for undergraduate students has continued to increase compared to the original report. Based on previous studies, use a population standard deviation ? = $1,000. (a) State the null and alternative hypotheses.

- The U.S. Golf Association provides a number of services for its members. One of these is the evaluation of golf equipment to make sure that the equipment satisfies the rules of golf. For example, they regularly test the golf balls made by the various companies that sell balls in the United States. Recently they undertook a study of two brands of golf balls with the objective to see whether there is a difference in the mean distance that the two golf ball brands will fly off the tee. To conduct the test, the U.S.G.A. uses a robot named "ron Byron," which swings the club at the same speed and with the same swing pattern each time it is used. The following data reflect sample data for a random sample of balls of each brand.arrow_forwardA researcher hypothesizes that different colors of cars result in different average speeds. To test this claim, she took a random sample of 20 people who own 4 different colors of colors of cars (n = 20, N = 80, G = 4), and she then tracks their average speed on the highway for a week of driving. The following ANOVA table has some of her results. Please help her answer her research questions by completing the following ANOVA table below and answering the follow-up questions.

She invited student volunteers to perform an online memory task. The students saw a list of 60 words and were then asked to recognize a list of 10 words that were on the original list. Students were also asked to provide their GPAs. Consider the following data set, which was collected from student volunteers in 2009.
