3) Suppose we are interested in comparing the effectiveness of two different antibiotics, A and B, in treating gonorrhea. Each person receiving antibiotic A is matched with an equivalent person (age within 5 years, same sex), to whom antibiotic B is given. These people are asked to return to the clinic within 1 week to see if the gonorrhea has been eliminated. Suppose the results are as follows:             1) For 40 pairs of people, both antibiotics are successful.            ...

The following scores are from an independent-measures study comparing two treatment conditions. (Be sure to include your critical values) a. Use an independent -measures t-test with a = 0.05 to determine whether there is a significant mean difference between the two treatments. b. Use an ANOVA with a = 0.05 to determine whether there is a significant mean difference between the two treatments. You should find that F = t2. Treatment I Treatment II 10 7 n=16 8 4 g=120...

We are interested in comparing the average maximum pressure for two brands of tyres. A random selection of 25 Goodyear economy tyres had an average maximum pressure of 46.0 psi, with a standard deviation of 6 psi. A random selection of 23 Firestone economy tyres had an average maximum pressure of 50.1 psi with a standard deviation of 4 psi. We can assume that maximum pressure is normally distributed. All hand-calculated steps must be shown. 1a) Clearly state the hypotheses...
