Find x2. (Remember the label.) pounds The Economic Policy Institute reports that the average entry-level wage for male college graduates is $20.24 per hour and for female college graduates is $19.72 per hour. The standard deviation for male graduates is $3.94 and for female graduates is $2.67. Assume wages are normally distributed. (See exercise 23 on page 326 of your textbook for a similar problem.) Question 4 If 54 male graduates are chosen, find the probability the sample average entry-level wage is at least $19.23.arrow_forwardwhat happens to the F-statistic if two variances are different?arrow_forwardVia ultrasound, it is determined that a cat will have a litter containing 8 kittens.

- A New York Times article titled For Runners, Soft Ground Can Be Hard on the Body considered two perspectives on whether runners should stick to hard surfaces or soft surfaces following an injury. One position supported running on soft surfaces to relieve joints that were in recovery from injury. The second position supported running on hard surfaces since soft surfaces can be uneven, which may make worse those injuries a soft surface was intended to help. Suppose we are given sufficient funds to run an experiment to study this topic. With no studies to support either position, which of the following hypotheses would be appropriate? The first position is more sensible, so this should be a one-sided test. In this case, we should form the alternative hypothesis around the second position. The second position makes the more sense, so this should be a one-sided test. In this case, we should form the alternative hypothesis around the first position.
