Chapter 8: Q.9.120 (page 390)

Medieval Cremation Burials. In the article "Material Culture as Memory: Combs and Cremations in Early Medieval Britain" (Early Medieval Europe, Vol. 12, Issue 2, Pp. 89-128), H. Williams discussed the frequency of cremation burials found in 17 archacological sites in eastern England. Here are the data.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The sample size is moderate (n = 17). We can see that there is an outlier in the data from the graphical representations, and the probability plot isn't even close to linear. As a result, using the t-interval technique on the supplied data is not a good idea.

Explanation

The sample size of n=17 is considered modest. We can see that there is an outlier in the data from the graphical representations, and the probability plot isn't even close to linear. As a result, using the t-interval technique on the supplied data is not a good idea.

Most popular questions from this chapter

P-Values. In Exercises 17鈥�20, do the following:

a. Identify the hypothesis test as being two-tailed, left-tailed, or right-tailed.

b. Find the P-value. (See Figure 8-3 on page 364.)

c. Using a significance level of 伪 = 0.05, should we reject H0or should we fail to reject H0?

The test statistic of z = 2.01 is obtained when testing the claim that p鈮�0.345.

Technology. In Exercises 9鈥�12, test the given claim by using the display provided from technology. Use a 0.05 significance level. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value (or range of P-values), or critical value(s), and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Body Temperatures Data Set 3 鈥淏ody Temperatures鈥� in Appendix B includes 93 body temperatures measured at 12 虏鲁 on day 1 of a study, and the accompanying XLSTAT display results from using those data to test the claim that the mean body temperature is equal to 98.6掳F. Conduct the hypothesis test using these results.

In Exercises 9鈥�12, refer to the exercise identified. Make subjective estimates to decide whether results are significantly low or significantly high, then state a conclusion about the original claim. For example, if the claim is that a coin favours heads and sample results consist of 11 heads in 20 flips, conclude that there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the coin favours heads (because it is easy to get 11 heads in 20 flips by chance with a fair coin).

Exercise 8 鈥淧ulse Rates鈥�

Using Technology. In Exercises 5鈥�8, identify the indicated values or interpret the given display. Use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution, as described in Part 1 of this section. Use 伪= 0.05 significance level and answer the following:

a. Is the test two-tailed, left-tailed, or right-tailed?

b. What is the test statistic?

c. What is the P-value?

d. What is the null hypothesis, and what do you conclude about it?

e. What is the final conclusion?

Cell Phone Ownership A Pew Research Center poll of 2076 randomly selected adults showed that 91% of them own cell phones. The following Minitab display results from a test of the claim that 92% of adults own cell phones.

Final Conclusions. In Exercises 25鈥�28, use a significance level of 伪= 0.05 and use the given information for the following:

a. State a conclusion about the null hypothesis. (Reject H0 or fail to reject H0.)

b. Without using technical terms or symbols, state a final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Original claim: The mean pulse rate (in beats per minute) of adult males is 72 bpm. The hypothesis test results in a P-value of 0.0095.
