Question

Transcribed Image Text:A survey of 39 people was conducted to compare their self-reported height to their actual height. The
difference between reported height and actual height was calculated. Difference = Reported - Actual.
From the sample of differences, the mean was 1.35, with a standard deviation of 0.58.
a. Use the given information to estimate a 95% confidence intferval for the mean difference.
Enter your answer as a tri-linear inequality accurate to 2 decimal places (because the sample
statistics are reported accurate to 2 decimal places).
b. Use the above confidence interval and explain whether it is plausible that the true mean
difference is 1.3.
Since Select an answer the confidence interval, it Select an answer plausible that the true mean
difference is 1.3.
c. Test the claim that the true mean difference is 1.3 at 0.05 significance level.
F3
Calculate and provide the p-value to test the above claim, rounded to 4 decimal places.
d. Do your conclusion based on p-value and conclusion based on confidence interval match?
Yes both conlude it is NOT plausible that the true mean difference is 1.3.
O No two methods give different conclusions.
Yes both conlude it is plausible that the true mean difference is 1.3.
