- 3. The amount of time (in minutes) it took each individual in a sample of athletes to run a mile was recorded. In this particular sample, most of the athletes were able to run the mile quickly, but there were a small number of athletes who were not fast runners and needed more time to complete the mile. Two measures of center were computed for this sample: 12.9 minutes and 9.5 minutes. One of these measures is the mean and one is the median. Which measure must be the mean? A. The mean is 9.5 minutes because the distribution of running times would be skewed to the left. B. The mean is 9.5 minutes because the distribution of running times would be skewed to the right. c. The mean is 12.9 minutes because the distribution of running times would be skewed to the left. D. The mean is 12.9 minutes because the distribution running times would be skewed to the right.arrow_forwardQuestion 2.

- A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 54 men and 75 women to participate in the study. Each subject was required to step up and down a 6-inch platform. The pulse of each subject was then recorded. The following results were obtained.

- You are comparing data from two similar experiments that have a mean of 53. Experiment A has a standard deviation of 3.4 and experiment B has a standard deviation of 1.5. What does this tell you about the data in the experiments?arrow_forwardThe state Government gives grants to low-income undergraduate students. According to the National Postsecondary Student Aid Study conducted by the U.S. Department of Education in 2008, the average Pell grant award for 2007-2008 was $2,600. We wonder if the mean amount is different this year for Pell grant recipients at San Jose State University. Suppose that we randomly select 50 Pell grant recipients from San Jose State University. For these 50 students, the mean Pell grant award is $2,450 with a standard deviation of $600. Let µ = the mean amount of Pell grant awards received by San Jose State University Pell grant recipients this year. We test the hypotheses: H0: μ = 2,600 , Ha: μ ≠ 2,600. The sample size is greater than 30, so a t-model is a good fit for the sampling distribution. What is the t-test statistic? What is the P-value?arrow_forwardConsider the following data. 14,6,−11,−6,5,1014,6,−11,−6,5,10 Copy Data Step 1 of 3: Determine the mean of the given data.arrow_forward
