Question
At Rachel's 11th birthday party, 8 girls were timed to see how long (in seconds) they could hold their breath in a relaxed position. After a two-minute rest, they timed themselves while jumping. The girls thought that the mean difference between their jumping and
relaxed times would be zero. Test their hypothesis at the 5% level.

NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution for the problem, including for paired data, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption, though.)
Part (a)
State the null hypothesis.
O Ho Hd ≤0
ⒸHo Hd=0
O Ho Hd 20
O Ho Hd #0
Part (b)
State the alternative hypothesis.
ⒸH₂ Hd > 0
OH₂ Hd = 0
ⒸH₂ Hd=0
OH₂ Hd <0
Part (c)
Part (d)
In words, state what your random variable X represents.
ⒸX represents the average difference in the length of time each girl can hold her breath.
OX, represents the amount of time each girl can hold her breath.
OX, represents the difference in the average amount of time a girl can hold her breath while relaxed and while jumping.
OX, represents the difference in time for each girl to hold her breath while relaxed and while jumping.

Part (1)
What is the test statistic? (If using the z distribution round your answer to two decimal places, and if using the t distribution round your answer to three decimal places.)

What is the p-value? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
Part (g)
Explain what the p-value means for this problem.
O If Ho is false, then there is a chance equal to the p-value that the sample average difference between jumping times and relaxed times is -2.5 or less OR 2.5 or more.
O If Ho is true, then there is a chance equal to the p-value that the sample average difference between jumping times and relaxed times is -2.5 or less OR 2.5 or more.
O If Ho is true, then there is a chance equal to the p-value that the sample average difference between jumping times and relaxed times is between -2.5 and 2.5.

O Since p-value <a, we reject the null hypothesis.

O There is sufficient evidence to show that the relaxed time, on average, is different than the jumping time.
O There is not sufficient evidence to show that the relaxed time, on average, is different than the jumping time.

Explain how you determined which distribution to use.
O The t-distribution will be used because the samples are independent and the population standard deviation is not known.
