In this problem, assume that the distribution of differences is approximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedom df. not in the Student's r table, use the closest df. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value by a small amount and therefore produce a slightly more "conservative answer. Are America's top chief executive officers (CEOS) really worth all that money? One way to answer this question is to look at row 8, the annual company percentage increase in revenue, versus row A, the CEO's annual percentage salary increase in that same company. Suppose a random sample of companies yielded the following data 1864 21 37 8: Percent increase 22 25 27 for company A: Percent increase 21 23 24 14-4 19 15 30 for CEO LAUSE SALT Do these data indicate that the population mean percentage increase in corporate revenue (row B) is different from the population mean percentage increase in CEO salary?
