Chapter 10 Statistical Inferences Based on Two Samples True/False 1. An independent sample experiment is an experiment in which there is no relationship between the measurements in the different samples. Answer: True Difficulty: Medium 2. When testing the difference between two proportions selected from populations with large independent samples‚ the Z test statistic is used. Answer: True Difficulty: Medium 3. In forming a large sample confidence interval for [pic]‚ two assumptions

Business Statistics‚ 9e (Groebner/Shannon/Fry) Chapter 10 Estimation and Hypothesis Testing for Two Population Parameters 1) The Cranston Hardware Company is interested in estimating the difference in the mean purchase for men customers versus women customers. It wishes to estimate this difference using a 95 percent confidence level. If the sample size is n = 10 from each population‚ the samples are independent‚ and sample standard deviations are used‚ and the variances are assumed equal‚ then

EXERCISE 36 Questions to be graded 1. The researchers found a significant difference between the two groups (control and treatment) for change in mobility of the women with osteoarthritis (OA) over 12 weeks with the results of F(1‚ 22) = 9.619‚p = 0.005. Discuss each aspect of these results. Answer F-value shows significance between the two groups. The null hypothesis should be rejected because the P-Value is 0.005 which would mean that the groups are different. 2. State the null hypothesis

Practice with p-values Work through these problems with your computer partner and/or instructor. Answers follow the problem set. 1. Suppose we’ve done the computation of the Z test statistic. For each of the following situations determine the p-value that goes along with Z. a. Z = 2.12‚ two-sided test b. Z = 4.55‚ two-sided test c. Z = -1.40‚ lower-tail test 2. Suppose Z = 1.92.Which has a smaller p-value‚ the upper-tail test or the two-sided test? From this‚ is it more likely to have a
