Sergei Ivanovich is one of the diligent students of a high school in the USA. He is also a basketball fan. One day her gym teacher assigned her to report the average points earned by women's basketball players in each game in the form of a written report. Then Sergei took 10 player names and their points in one game. He took data from the WNBA AIl-Times Leaders website, based on this data in this regular season Nykesha Sales got 14.2 points per game, Sophia Young-malcolm got 14.3; Kayla McBride got 14.5; DeWanna Bonner got 14.8; Napheesa Collier got 14.9; Sheryl Swoopes got 15.0; Tina Thompson gets 15.1; Jewell Loyd gets 15.2 points; Kelsey Mitchell gets 15.2 points; and Seimone Augustus got 15.4 points. If it is claimed that the population mean is 14 points in each game, the alternative is greater than the null hypothesis. Perform a unidirectional test of the results of the sample taken by Sergei lvanovich with a significance level of 0.01.

- A recent drug survey showed an increase in the use of drugs and alcohol among local high school seniors as compared to the national percent. Suppose that a survey of 100 local seniors and 100 national seniors is conducted to see if the proportion of drug and alcohol use is higher locally than nationally. Locally, 65 seniors reported using drugs or alcohol within the past month, while 60 national seniors reported using them.arrow_forwardA researcher working at Hershey's is interested in comparing two new chocolate bars: Chocolate Bar A versus Chocolate Bar B. The researcher expects the bars to be different in how much customers will eat per month. The researcher believes the more candy bars someone eats will indicate which one tastes the best. An experiment is designed to compare the two new bars. The number of candy bars eaten by one group of 8 people in a month is measured with Candy Bar A and then the number of candy bars eaten in the same month by another group of 8 participants is measured with Candy Bar B. Use the data below to determine if there is a difference in the consumption of the two candy bars. Candy Bar A Candy Bar B Number of Candy Bars eaten within a month 10, 30, 5, 35, 60, 3, 20, 30, 28, 27, 26, 27, 17, 25 12, 20 With a = .05, determine the critical value of t* that needs to be employed here.
