Chapter 10: Q. 72 (page 600)

Use the following information to answer next five exercises. A study was conducted to test the effectiveness of a juggling class. Before the class started, six subjects juggled as many balls as they could at once. After the class, the same six subjects juggled as many balls as they could. The differences in the number of balls are calculated. The differences have a normal distribution. Test at the 1% significance level.

What conclusion can you draw about the juggling class?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The null hypothesis can be overlooked with a p- value of 0.0041. There is enough proof to suggest that taking a juggling class improves the number of balls each student can juggle.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The table is

02

Assessment of the juggling class

First, test at1%level of significance, that is, 伪=0.01

The output from previous Exercise is :

As伪<p-value, do not overlook the null hypothesis.

At 1%level of significance, there is insufficient data to support the idea that juggling classes increase the number of balls that can be juggled at one time.

In symbols, what is the random variable of interest for this test?

Use the following information to answer the next 12 exercises: The U.S. Center for Disease Control reports that the mean life expectancy was 47.6 years for whites born in 1900 and 33.0 years for nonwhites. Suppose that you randomly survey death records for people born in 1900 in a certain county. Of the 124 whites, the mean life span was 45.3 years with a standard deviation of 12.7 years. Of the 82 nonwhites, the mean life span was 34.1 years with a standard deviation of 15.6 years. Conduct a hypothesis test to see if the mean life spans in the county were the same for whites and nonwhites.

Which distribution (normal or Student's t) would you use for this hypothesis test?

Two types of valves are being tested to determine if there is a difference in pressure tolerances. Fifteen out of a random sample of 100of Valve Acracked under 4500psi.Six out of a random sample of 100of Valve Bcracked under 4500psi.Test at a5% level of significance.

A study is done to determine if students in the California state university system take longer to graduate than students enrolled in private universities. One hundred students from both the California state university system and private universities are surveyed. From years of research, it is known that the population standard deviations are 1.5811 years and one year, respectively.

Indicate which of the following choices best identifies the hypothesis test.

a. Independent group means, population standard deviation and/or variances known

b. Independent group means, population standard deviation and/or variances unknown

c. Matched or paired samples.

d. Single mean

e. Two proportions.

f. Single proportion.

Use the following information to answer the next three exercises: A study is done to determine which of two soft drinks has more sugar. There are 13 cans of Beverage A in a sample and six cans of Beverage B. The mean amount of sugar in Beverage A is 36 grams with a standard deviation of 0.6 grams. The mean amount of sugar in Beverage B is 38 grams with a standard deviation of 0.8 grams. The researchers believe that Beverage B has more sugar than Beverage A, on average. Both populations have normal distributions.

Are standard deviations known or unknown?
