Some researchers claim that herbal supplements (such as ginkgo biloba) can impact human memory. To test this claim, a researcher

selects a sample of n = 25 college students. Each student is given a ginkgo biloba supplement daily for six weeks and then all the participants are given a standardized memory test. For the population, scores on the test are normally distributed with µ = 70 with σ = 15. The sample of n = 25 students had a mean score of M = 76.a. Are the data sufficient to demonstrate that the herb has a significant effect on memory? Use a two-tailed test with
α
= 0.05.

b. Compute Cohen's d for this study.

Answer:

(a) The data are not sufficient to demonstrate that the herb has a significant effect on memory.

(b) Cohen's d = 5.07

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Null hypothesis: The herbal supplement (ginkgo biloba) can impact human memory

Alternate hypothesis: The herbal supplement (ginkgo biloba) cannot impact human memory.

Z = (sample mean - population mean) ÷ sd/√n

Sample mean = 76, population mean = 70, sd = 15, n = 25

Z = (76 - 70) ÷ 15/√25 = 6 ÷ 3 = 2

Using a 0.05 significance level for a two tailed test, the critical value is 1.96

For a two tailed test, the region of no rejection of the null hypothesis lies between -1.96 and 1.96

Conclusion: Since the test statistic (Z = 2) falls outside the region bounded by -1.96 and 1.96, reject the null hypothesis. The herbal supplement (ginkgo biloba) cannot impact human memory.

Hence, the data are not sufficient to demonstrate that the herb has a significant effect on memory.

(b) Cohen's d = M/sd = 76/15 = 5.07

Identify one characteristic of exponential growth
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Range is always greater than zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential growth means that the growth rate of a given quantity increases exponentially.

The graph of an exponential function is shown below.

From the above graph, it's quite clear that the range of the function is never negative.

Hence, one characteristic of exponential growth is that the range(y values on the graph) is always greater than zero.
