Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a dairy scientist is testing a new feed additive. She chooses 13 cows at random from a large population of cows. She randomly assigns nold = 8 to get the old diet, and nnew = 5 to get the new diet including the additive.
From the data given we get the following
N Mean StDev SE Mean
Sample 1 8 43 5.1824 1.832
Sample 2 5 73 21.0832 9.429
df = 11
Std dev for difference = 13.3689
a) Yes the two are independent. The two sets of cows randomly chosen are definitely independent. Paired means equal number should be there and homogeneous conditions should be maintained.
b) Enclosed
c) Comparison of two means is the test recommended here. Because independent samples are used.\
d) Test statistic= -3.1233
(because of unequal variances we use that method)
95% confidence interval = ( -56.6676 , -3.3324 )
p value <0.05 our alpha
So reject null hypothesis.
The two means are statistically significantly different.
Answer:
Yes. The data provide enough evidence to support the claim that the mean weight of one-year-old boys is greater than 25 pounds.
P-value=P(t>2.84)=0.0024
Step-by-step explanation:
Hypothesis test on the population mean.
The claim is that the mean weight of one-year-old boys is greater than 25 pounds.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
The significance level is α=0.05.
The sample size is n=354. The sample mean is 25.8 pounds and the sample standard deviation is 5.3 pounds. As the population standard deviation is estimated from the sample standard deviation, we will use a t-statistic.
The degrees of freedom are:
The t-statistic is:
For a right tailed test and 353 degrees of freedom, the P-value is:
As the P-value is smaller than the significance level, the effect is significant and the null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean weight of one-year-old boys is greater than 25 pounds.
