ing whether the average of the "before" scores is higher than that of the "after" scores.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question says that Alisha is interested in testing whether the average (mean) of the B scores is GREATER THAN the average of the A scores.

Normally, a right-tailed test is used to conduct such experiment because Alisha is comparing in the positive - greater than.

Since we weren't given any figures in the question, we'll use algebra.

Hence,

Let the mean of the B scores be X

and the mean of the A scores be Y

(A) In this case, Alisha wants to know if X is greater than Y. She'll construct the difference between both means thus:

Null hypothesis: X is greater than Y

Alternative hypothesis: X is not greater than Y

Remember that the null hypothesis is the fact which the researcher is testing or which he/she wants to ascertain or prove WHILE the alternative hypothesis is the negating event.

(B) For a left-tailed test to be conducted, Alisha's research statement will be rephrased thus:

Alisha is interested in testing whether the average of the A scores is LESS THAN the average of the B scores.

The hypothesis statement will now be:

Null hypothesis: Y is less than X

Alternative hypothesis: Y is not less than X

As the distinction between both types of hypothesis test has been established, in each case, succeeding statistical-analysis steps are the same.

Alisha can then perform her regression analysis with the numerical data given.

7/9 - 4/3w = -5/6 <br> what is w
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

w=1 5/24

Step-by-step explanation:

7/9-4/3w=-5/6

-4/3w=-5/6-7/9

-4/3w=-15/18-14/18

-4/3w=-29/18

w=-29/18:(-4/3)

w=29/18*(3/4)

w=29*3/18*4

w=29/6*4

w=29/24

w=1 5/24
