Question
Consider the following results for independent random samples taken from two populations.
Sample 1 | Sample 2 |
n 1 = 10 | n 2 = 30 |
x 1 = 22.5 | x 2 = 20.3 |
s 1 = 2.1 |
s 2 = 4.9 |
- What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means (to 1 decimal)?

- At 95% confidence, what is the margin of error (to 1 decimal)?
- What is the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means (to 1 decimal)?

- This assignment is worth 1 points. The extra point will be added to your overall course grade. For example: if you receive an 88% in the course you can receive up to 1 point giving you a new score of 89%. The following rubric will be used. 0.25 point for drawing the normal distribution curve with the mean value labeled on the curve and the appropriate area shaded. 0.25 point for determining the value of the standard deviation of the sample mean. 0.5 point for finding the correct probability. All work must be shown in order to receive any credit. Please upload your completed assignment here. The length of time taken on the SAT for a group of students is normally distributed with a mean of 2.5 hours and a standard deviation of 0.25 hours. A sample size of n = 60 is drawn randomly from the population. Find the probability that the sample mean is between two hours and three hours.arrow_forwardChoose the appropriate statistical test. When computing, be sure to round each answer as indicated. A dentist wonders if depression affects ratings of tooth pain. In the general population, using a scale of 1-10 with higher values indicating more pain, the average pain rating for patients with toothaches is 6.8. A sample of 30 patients that show high levels of depression have an average pain rating of 7.1 (variance 0.8). What should the dentist determine? 1. Calculate the estimated standard error.

- Listed below are systolic blood pressure measurements (mm Hg) taken from the right and left arms of the same woman. Assume that the paired sample data is a simple random sample and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Use a 0.05 significance level to test for a difference between the measurements from the two arms. What can be concluded? Right arm Left arm 150 142 120 131 167 160 179 156 In this example, Hd is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of data, where each individual difference d is defined as the measurement from the right arm minus the measurement from the left arm. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test? O A. Ho: Hd = 0 H₁: Hd 0 Since the P-value is than the significance level, the null hypothesis. There sufficient evidence to support the claim of a difference in measurements between the two arms.arrow_forwardLongevities of Archbishops and Monarchs 16 Archbishops 16 15 15 16 17 1 18 18 10 13 13 11 13 11 11 17 18 10 18 12 19 17 Monarchs 14 18 14 13 19 16 21 14 16 17 15 16arrow_forwardConsider the following ANOVA table below.

Is the mean different for houses owned by teachers? The data show the results of a survey of 12 teachers who were asked how many paintings they have in their houses. Assume that the distribution of the population is normal. 12, 14, 14, 14, 15, 14, 14, 14, 12, 13, 15, 14 What can be concluded at the αα = 0.01 level of significance? For this study, we should use The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0:H0: H1:H1: The test statistic = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is αα Based on this, we should the null hypothesis. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... The data suggest the population mean is not significantly different from 13 at αα = 0.01, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean number of paintings that are in teachers' houses is equal to 13.
