A professor wants to know whether or not there is a difference in comprehension of a lab assignment among students depending on

if the instructions are given all in text, or if they are given primarily with visual illustrations. She randomly divides her class into two groups of 15, gives one group instructions in text and the second group instructions with visual illustrations. The following data summarizes the scores the students received on a test given after the lab. Let the populations be normally distributed with a populations standard deviation of 5.32 points for both the text and visual illustrations.
Text (Group Visual Illustrations (Group 2) 57.3 59 45.3 57.6 87.1 72.9 61.2 83.2 43.1 64 87.3 76.7 75.2 78.2 88.2 64.4 67.5 89 86.2 72.9 67.2 88.2 54.4 43.8 93 97.1 89.2 95.1 52 84.1 Is there evidence to suggest that a difference exists in the comprehension of the lab based on the test scores? Use a=0.10. Enter the test statistic - round to 4 decimal places. Enter the P-Value - round to 4 decimal places. Can it be concluded that a difference exists in the comprehension of the lab based on the test scores?

Answer:

It is concluded that no difference exists in the comprehension of the lab based on the test scores.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Let the populations be normally distributed with a populations standard deviation of 5.32 points for both the text and visual illustrations.</u></em>

The above statement tells us that the independent t or two sample t test will be performed as both have equal variances and are normally distributed.

This can be easily done through excel.

The following table is obtained

     

t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Equal Variances  

 

                <u>  Text                      Visual Illustrations</u>

Mean          70.28                       75.08

Variance 304.48                     228.58

Observations 15                             15

Pooled Variance Sp²= 266.53

       Pooled Standard Deviation = Sp = 16.33

Hypothesized Mean Difference = x1`-x2`= 0

df = n1+n2-2= 15+15-2= 30-2= 28

t Stat -0.805188239

<u>P(T<=t) two-tail 0.427495979                      </u>

<u>t Critical two-tail 1.701130908                              </u>

Let the null and alternate hypotheses be

H0 : u1-u2= 0   against the claim Ha: u1-u2≠0

There is no difference between the means

against the claim

that there is a difference in means of a lab assignment among students depending on if the instructions are given all in text, or if they are given primarily with visual illustrations.

The significance level is ∝= 0.1

The d.f is n1+n2-2= 15+15-2= 30-2=28

This is a two tailed test and the critical region is t (0.025) (28) ≥ 1.7011 and  t (0.025) (28) ≤ - 1.7011.

The test statistic is

t= x1-x2/ Sp √1/n1+ 1/n2

t= 70.28 -75.08/ 16.33√1/15 +1/15

t= -4.8/5.963

t= -0.8049811  ( minute difference from excel result due to rounding)

Since the calculated value of t= -0.8049 does not fall in the critical region we conclude that there is no difference in means of a lab assignment among students depending on if the instructions are given all in text, or if they are given primarily with visual illustrations.

We accept the null hypothesis.

The p- value is 0.427495979.

How do u convert 3.54 ug to grams
denis23 [38]
"ug" stands for microgram. You can convert microgram into grams by multiplying a certain factor. For this case, 1 microgram is known to be 1x10^-6 g. This is the conversion factor that will be multiplied to 3.54.

3.54 ug ( 1x10^-6 g / 1 ug ) = 3.54 <span>x10^-6 g</span>

sixteen slices of pizza are distributed in a society of four people so that one person receives eight slices, the second person
tresset_1 [31]

If all agree that the fair outcome would be the one where each person gets four slices, then could be improved at the expense of each person equally.

Given that,
sixteen slices of pizza are distributed in a society of four people so that one person receives eight slices, the second person receives six slices, the third receives two, and the last receive no pizza.
if no person wants to give up the pizza he or she has but they all agree that the fair outcome would be the one where each person gets four slices, then could be improved at the expense of is to be explained.

<h3>What is arithmetic?</h3>

In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.

Here,

If all agree, that each of one should get an equal number of slices, then it can be concluded that each of them should pay an equal amount for the 4 pizzas.

Thus, if all agree that the fair outcome would be the one where each person gets four slices, then could be improved at the expense of each person equally.

Write greatest unit fractions that are repeating decimals. Then express each fraction as a decimal.
LekaFEV [45]
Our repeating decimal would be= 0.5555….
Let’s give 0.5555….. repeating decimal a variable of x:
x= 0.5555…. or 0.5(move 1 point to the right)
So ,10x = 5.5555 or 5.5

Now, Let’s do subtraction:
10x = 5.5555… or 5.5  
<u>-   x =  0.5555… or 0.5</u>
 9x  = 5.0            or 5.0

To get a fraction, provide a denominator the same with the numerator of variable x which is 9. Then divide the difference:
<span><u>9x</u> = <u>5.0</u>  
9        9</span> <span> <span><span> <span> <span>Therefore, x = <u>5
</u>                                     9</span> </span> </span> </span></span>
