[example continued...] Does training in stress reduction make a difference for student success? 15 students received training (M1= 88, SS1= 400) and 15 students did not (M2= 82, SS2= 440). Test using α = .05 t = (test statistic) = Group of answer choices +1.25 +1.75 +3.00 +2.50

According to shopper data, 97% of households purchase toilet paper. An analyst believes this is too low. To investigate, the analyst selects a random sample of 500 households and finds that 98% of them purchase toilet paper. Do these data provide convincing statistical evidence at the α = 0.05 level to conclude that the true proportion of all households that purchase toilet paper differs from 0.97? Complete the “State” step for this test. H0: p = Ha: p where p = the true proportion of all that .

To determine how climate change and habitat loss will influence Antarctic species, baseline estimates of population sizes and distributions are needed. To this end, a group of researchers estimated the population sizes of all breeding colonies of emperor penguins (Aptenodytes fosteri) along Antarctic coastlines using satellite imagery (Fretwell et al., 2012). For each breeding colony encountered, the researchers determined the latitude, longitude, and area (m) of the colony, and estimated the total number of emperor penguins present. Then, they compared their colony size estimates to previously published estimates. Suppose the researchers want to determine if there is a linear relationship between the colony latitudes and the current population estimates, so they decide to conduct a two-tailed t-test for no linear relationship. From 44 data points, they calculate the linear regression equation to be ŷ = -21881.15255 – 382.65545x where ŷ is the predicted current population estimate and…
