A hypothesis test is to be performed to compare the means of two populations, using a paired sample. The sample of 15 paired differences contains an outlier but otherwise is roughly bell-shaped. Assuming that it is not legitimate to remove the outlier, which test is better to use-the paired t-test or the paired Wilcoxon signed-rank test? Explain your answer,
The primary concern is deciding whether the mean of Population 2 is less than the mean of Population
Nigerian Spleen Length. Refer to Exercise 10.49 and determine a 99% confidence interval for the difference between mean spleen lengths of Nigerian males and females.
What constitutes each pair in a paired sample?
State one possible advantage of using paired samples instead of independent samples.
