True or False: It is unnecessary to establish scoring criteria for each element/column of
the decision matrix.

True or False: Marsha needs to determine which of her Xs are critical. Depending on
the situation, using the one factor at a time method may be acceptable.

As part of your project, you collected 100 or more data. See link below. Two of the data columns consisted of numerical (quantitative) data. Select one of the two quantitative data rows. Using your group project data, randomly choose 50 or more quantitative data items from your selected row. There are many ways to randomly choose 50 data. It is up to you to decide how you will select the data. One way is to use StatCrunch to randomly choose the data. You will first construct an appropriate set of hypotheses, H0 and H1, regarding your data. This might involve undertaking initial research to figure out a meaningful set of hypotheses.
Complete the following steps and submit as your primary post:
First
Briefly explain your survey and the data variable you are investigating
Include your Statcrunch report, either as an attachment or (even better) paste is into your discussion post
Then
1. Write down the null hypothesis.

video gamer believes that team composition greatly affects win rate. To test this idea, the player decides to play 100 matches with teams of 3 colors: Red, Green, and Blue. The player records the number of matches he wins with each team color.
Given anecdotal evidence, the gamer believes his red team is the best and therefore will win the most games. He has less experience with his blue and green team and is interested to see if there is a difference between the two. Because the gamer is more experienced with his red team, he plays more matches with that team. The total number of matches played per team color is: Red-50, Blue-23, and Green 27.

Let’s say a psychologist suspects that emotions affect people’s eating habits, but that the eating habits of anxious people are affected differently. Ten highly anxious subjects are randomly divided into two equal-sized groups, one of which views a horror movie while the other watches a comedy. Ten non-anxious control subjects are similarly divided. The number of ounces of popcorn eaten by each subject during the movie is recorded.
How many independent variables are there in this design?
Name each of the factors and levels (using appropriate descriptors from the paragraph):

Task:
300 people of German and French
nationalities were interviewed for
finding their preference for music of
their own language. The following
facts were gathered out of 100
German nationals, 60 liked music of
their own language, whereas 70
French nationals out of 200 liked
German music. Out of 100 French
nationals, 55 liked music of their own
language and 35 German nationals
out of 200 Germans liked French
music.
Using coefficient of association,
state whether Germans prefer their
own music in comparison with
Frenchmen.

Suppose that you are taking a course where the total class grade is the weighted average of your homework, worksheets, quizzes and tests.The homework is worth 15% of the course grade, worksheets are worth 20% of the course grade, the quizzes are worth 25% of the course grade, and tests are worth 40% of the course grade. To get a B in the course, you must have an overall average of at least 80%.Your current grades in each category are:Homework = 7575%, Worksheets = 7474%, and Quizzes = 6868%.What is the minimum test average you need to get a B in the course?.Your answer is: % (Round to at least 1 decimal place)

Thompson Photo Works purchased several new, highly sophisticated processing machines. The production department needed some guidance with respect to qualifications needed by an operator. Is age a factor? Is the length of service as an operator (in years) important? To evaluate the factors needed to estimate performance on the new processing machines, four variables were selected: x1 = Length of time an employee was in the industryx2 = Mechanical aptitude test scorex3 = Prior on-the-job ratingx4 = Age Performance on the new machine is designated y.Thirty employees were randomly selected and data were collected for each of the variables.

Chloe took three 100-point exams in her statistics class and scored 83, 81
and 92. The second exam is much easier than the two other exams, so her
professor has given it less weight. The weights for the three exams are:
• Exam 1: 35 % of her grade.
• Exam 2: 30 % of her grade.
• Exam 3: 35 % of her grade.
What is her final weighted average for the class?
