(a)
To explain what statistical advantage did the class’ matched pairs design have over its completely randomized design.
(a)
Explanation of Solution
The matched pairs design is superior because in doing so, students can compare their own pulse rates, which is significant. A completely randomized design would not allow students to compare their own pulse rates, making the exercise insignificant.
(b)
