Data were collected on annual personal time (in hours) taken by a random sample of 16 women (group 1) and 7 men (group 2) emp
loyed by a medium sized company. The women took an average of 24.75 hours of personal time per year with a standard deviation of 2.84 hours. The men took an average of 21.89 hours of personal time per year with a standard deviation of 3.29 hours. The Human Resources Department believes that women tend to take more personal time than men because they tend to be the primary child care givers in the family. The results of the test are tequals2.02 with an associated p-value of 0.0352. The correct conclusion at alphaequals0.05 is to _______.
In statistical hypothesis testing, the p-value or probability value is the probability of obtaining test results at least as extreme as the results actually observed during the test, assuming that the null hypothesis is correct
Since the p value is less than a, you would reject the null hypothesis and conclude that women take more personal time than men.
The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other. You can use the Pythagorean theorem. If the diagonals are length "a" and "b", the side length of the rhombus (s) is s = (1/2)√(a²+b²)
