17. Are Male Professors and Female Professors Rated Differently? Listed below are student evaluation scores of female professors and male professors from Data Set 17 “Course Evaluations” in Appendix B. Test the claim that female professors and male professors have the same mean evaluation ratings. Does there appear to be a difference?

A researcher believes that the so-called “sugar high” is not real. He gathered 30 adolescents and recorded their activity level in the scale of 0 – 100 (0 = not active and 100 = super active). First, he recorded participants’ activity level before they consumed candy. After recording their pre-sugar activity level, the researcher gave out 5 Snickers bars to participants. Then, he recorded their post-sugar activity level. The average difference between post-sugar and pre-sugar activity level is 50 (i.e., the activity levels are higher after sugar than prior to it) with a standard deviation of 10.
A). What is the type of test you will use? (z-test, single-sample t-test, paired-samples t-test, or independent samples t-test) and why (what information provided in the problem)B). What are the hypotheses (Be Specific)
In Exercises 13–20, determine whether the data are from a discrete or continuous data set.
CHIS Among the subjects surveyed as part of the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS), several subjects are randomly selected and their heights are recorded.
Refer to the data presented in Exercise 2.86. Note that there
were 50% more accidents in the 25 to less than 30 age group
than in the 20 to less than 25 age group. Does this suggest
that the older group of drivers in this city is more accident-
prone than the younger group? What other explanation might
account for the difference in accident rates?
