Brand | Price ($) | Score |
Bose |
180 | 76 |
Skullcandy | 150 | 71 |
Koss | 95 | 61 |
Phillips/O'Neill | 70 | 56 |
Denon | 70 | 40 |
JVC | 35 | 26 |

- Historically, Olympic officials have reported testosterone levels in general should be u = 538 ng/dL, with o = 189, with x being normally distributed. Summer Olympic sprinters (n = 8) from the U.S. were tested for testosterone levels the morning after the opening ceremonies. Their sample mean was ng/dL. Do these data indicate that the sprinters had an overall average testosterone level greater than 538? Use a = .05. State a, H,, H1, p-value, rejection, or non-rejection, and be certain to interpret your results.arrow_forwardLas Vegas has seen increased competition from Singapore and Macau for customers in the casino resort industry.

- Justin wants to know whether a commonly prescribed drug does improve the attention span of students with attention deficit disorder (ADD). He knows that the mean attention span for students with ADD who are not taking the drug is 2.3 minutes long. His sample of 12 students taking the drug yielded a mean of 4.6 minutes. Justin can find no information regarding σx , so he calculated s2x =1.96. a. Identify the independent and dependent variables. b. In a sentence, state the null hypothesis being tested. c. Using symbols, state the null and alternative hypotheses. d. Determine the critical region using a one-tailed test with alpha = .05. e .Conduct the hypothesis test (Do the math and compare the t-critical and t-obtained values). f. State your conclusions in terms of H0 (Should you reject the H0 or fail to reject/accept the H0). g. Based on your analysis, is there a relationship between the drug and attention span?arrow_forwardWhich of the following research scenarios uses a two samples independent-measures t test? a.
