To investigate serotonin's role in suicidal behavior, the amounts of serotonin metabolites in the cerebral spinal fluid of 15 violent suicide attempters is compared to levels found in a group of 20 nonviolent suicide attempters the normal/high and the two groups are compared. These data would MOST appropriately be analyzed with a(n): a. paired-smaples t test b. factorial ANOVA c. chi-square test for independence d. independent-samples t test
A researcher wants to determine the impact of fertilizer type on the growth of a certain type of plant. She grows three plants in each of four different types of fertilizer and measures the growth in inches for each plant. the data is below: Inches fertilizer 12.5 1 12.6 1 10.8 1 13 2 12.7 2 12.8 2 10.1 3 9.7 3 8.5 3 13.2 4 11.1 4 12.6 4 Using a ANOVA, A) What is the SStrt for the ANOVA? Give your answer to at least three decimal places. B) What is DFerr for the ANOVA? C) Using a 0.05 level of significance, what conclusion should the researcher reach? a. fertilizer1 has a higher mean growth for the plant than the other types of soil. b. fertilizer 3 has a lower mean growth for the plant than the other types of soil. c. The mean growth of the plant is not the same for all fertilizer types.

This year, 360 of 440 statistics students at Oxnard Technical College rented their textbooks, compared with 110 of 330 students last year. This is a significant increase. b. Our new manufacturing technique has increased the life of the 80 GB USB AsimoDrive external hard disk significantly, from 240,000 hours to 250,000 hours. c. In 50,000 births, the new vaccine reduced the incidence of infant mortality in Morrovia significantly from 14.2 deaths per 1000 births to 10.3 deaths per 1000 births d.

To combat antibiotic resistance a throat swab is recommended to confirm strep throat before a physician prescribes antibiotics to children under age 5. Nationally, 40 percent of children under 5 who received antibiotics did not have a throat swab. The Department of Health took a random sample of 60 children under the age of 5 who received antibiotics for throat infections and found that 18 did not have a throat swab. At α = .05, is this a statistically significant reduction over last year’s national rate of 40 percent?(a) state the null and alternative hypotheses.(b)Calculate the critical value
An experiment was conducted to compare the alcohol content of soy sauce on two different production lines. Production was monitored eight times a day. The data are shown here. Production line 1 0.38 0.37 0.39 0.41 0.38 0.39 0.40 0.39 Production line 2 0.48 0.39 0.42 0.52 0.40 0.48 0.52 0.52 Assume both populations are normal. It is suspected that production line 1 is not producing as consistently as production line 2 in terms of alcohol content. Using the 0.05 level of significance, can conclude that the population standard deviations for the alcohol content of these two types of production lines could be the same.
Toxic Mushrooms? Cadmium, a heavy metal, is toxic to animals. Mushrooms, however, are able to absorb and accumulate cadmium at high concentrations. The Czech and Slovak governments have set a safety limit for cadmium in dry vegetables at 0.5 part per million (ppm). M. Melgar et al. measured the cadmium levels in a random sample of the edible mushroom Boletus pinicola and published the results in the paper “Influence of Some Factors in Toxicity and Accumulation of Cd from Edible Wild Macrofungi in NW Spain” (Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Vol. B33(4), pp. 439–455). A hypothesis test is to be performed to decide whether the mean cadmium level in Boletus pinicola mushrooms is greater than the government’s recommended limit. a. determine the null hypothesis. b. determine the alternative hypothesis. c. classify the hypothesis test as two tailed, left tailed, or right tailed.
A researcher wanted to determine if carpeted rooms contain more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms. The table shows the results for the number of bacteria per cubic foot for both types of rooms.
