A random sample of 8 observations from one population revealed a sample mean of 23 and a sample standard deviation of 4.6. A random sample of 8 observations from another population revealed a sample mean of 27 and a sample standard deviation of 4.6. The population standard deviations are unknown but assumed to be equal. At the 0.01 significance level, is there a difference between the population means?
a. State the decision rule.
b. Compute the pooled estimate of the population variance.

Select one:
a. It is the correlation between the fitted values and the residuals
b. It is the proportion of the total variability of y that is explained by the model

d. It is the proportion of the total variability of y about its mean value that is explained by the model
ou are conducting a hypothesis test on the body weights of male fraternity members. The research (alternative) hypothesis is that the averge weight is greater than 200 lbs. Your test will be at the 0.01 significance level. You take a sample of 64 men, and find that the sample average is 210 lbs, and the standard deviation is 20 lbs. The value of your test statistic is, therefore, 4.00. Would your test statistic be higher or lower if your sample stats had been estimated from a sample of 640 men, rather than 64?
Group of answer choices
Lower
The same (neither higher, nor lower).
Higher
