We want to use a z-test to determine if the sample mean is less than 30 at alpha = 0.05. Use the z-table to find the critical value(s)
How would I solve this? It involves interpretation of p-values, kurtosis, and significance levels?
If the observed statistic exceeds the critical ratio, what can we say about the p value with respect to the alpha level? A. p < α B. p > α
17. Degrees of freedom is 14, and significance level is 1%, the critical value of X2 from the table will be: (Type 3 decimal places)
If I have a sample mean less than 30 at alpha= 0.05. What is the critical value using the Z table
1)Remove the four potential outliers of 0, 0, 8, and 20, and then obtain a new histogram without the outliers. Does the data appear to be normally distributed now? 2)Assuming that the four potential outliers of 0, 0, 8, and 20 are not recording errors, repeat the hypothesis test from part (c) (again setting up the hypothesis test and using either the critical value or p-value approach), and compare your results with that obtained in (c). Did you make a different conclusion? 3)Imagine you know have to make a recommendation/conclusion to the company that hired you: Assuming that the four potential outlies are not recording errors, and looking at the two results above, would you recommend using the first test with the outliers or the second test with the outliers removed? There is no right or wrong answer here, I am interested in what you think and your reasoning.
A random sample of size n = 4 taken from a normal population with σ2 = 9 is used to test H0 : µ = µ0against H1 : µ = µ1 where µ1 > µ0. e null hypothesis will be rejected if X > µ ¯0 + 2.5. Find the levelof significance of the critical region
A random sample of 100 students at a high school was asked whether they would ask their father or mother for help with a financial problem. A second sample of 100 different students was asked the same question regarding a dating problem. If 43 students in the first sample and 47 students in the second sample replied that they turned to their mother rather than their father for help, test the hypothesis of no difference in the proportions. Use α = 0.02. Identify the critical value(s). 2.33 ±2.33±2.33 ±2.05±2.05 2.05
15- Degrees of freedom is 14, and significance level is 1%, the critical value of X2 from the table will be:(Type 3 decimal places) Answer:
Consider the following: In general, when people diet they typically lose 10 lbs. (?σ = 2). A random sample of 16 people on the keto diet lost 15 lbs. Do people on the keto diet lose more or less weight than people on diets in general? 3. What is the Null Hypothesis? a)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar = Mu)) b)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar does not equal Mu) c)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample differs from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar does not equal Mu) d)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample differs from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar = Mu)
We want to use a z-test to determine if the sample mean is greater than 20 at the alpha = 0.05. What is the critical value(s)?
My original question has already been answered, however, in Step 2 of the Expert Answer I would like clarification on how to compute the critical values manually - without the use of EXCEL, as mentioned in the respnse, so I need to know what formula do I use? Question: Prior to assessment of the outcome, the researchers did a manipulation check. Members of Groups 1 and 2 rated the attractiveness (on a 1 to 9 scale, with 9 being the most attractive) of the person in the photo. They reported that for the attractive photo, M = 7.53; for the unattractive photo, M = 3.20, F(1, 108) = 184.29. Was this difference statistically significant (using a = .05)? Expert Answer Step 1 It is given that the F-test statistic is 184.29, the degrees of freedom for first and second groups are 1 and 108, and the level of significance is 0.05. State the appropriate hypothesis: Null hypothesis: H0 : There is no difference between two groups. Alternative hypothesis: Ha : There is a difference between…
