Answer:
1. An Experimental
2. Dependent
3. Independent
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering the description of how the research was carried out, it can be concluded that This study is an example of AN EXPERIMENTAL study. This because the researcher is trying to study the effectiveness of a new drug for lowering cholesterol
The difference in cholesterol level is the DEPENDENT variable. This is because the difference in cholesterol level is what the researcher wants to determine.
The treatment with a drug or placebo is the INDEPENDENT variable. This is because this is what the researcher manipulates to determine the difference in cholesterol level which is the dependent variable in this experimental study.
The answer in simplest form is 1/4.
Ummm, we can't choose one of the problems if we can't see any of the problems...
Answer:
Test is Left tailed test
Parameter tested is standard deviation
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the hypothesis as;
Null hypothesis; H0: σ = 8.6
Alternative hypothesis; H1: σ < 8.6
Where;σ is a constant generally known in statistics as the standard deviation.
Now, it's the alternative hypothesis that will let us know whether this is left tailed, right tailed or two tailed.
Alternative hypothesis says σ < 8.6.
This means that the values of σ that satisfy this hypothesis are less than 8.6 and thus are on the left hand side of 8.6 on a number line. Thus, the shaded region in a normal distribution curve will be on the left.
Thus, it's a left tailed test
