TOPIC: Hypothesis Testing (Statistic Question)

In 2015, I taught my first semester at Yale University, a standard deviation was calculated based on the scores on the SDF, the question was asking whether or not I encourage student questions in my classroom. The standard deviation for the 2015 class (economics class) was 1.03 with 31 responses. In 2018, the standard deviation for that same question came out to be 0.88 with 24 responses in my calculus class. [2015 = economics class, 2018 = calculus class] Questions are below.

(a). Please test the hypothesis that the Standard Deviation of the 2015 class on this question is larger than it is for the 2018 class at a significance level of 0.05. Please do problem by hand and find the correct critical value using the R Studio (software program). If you statisticians are familiar with that software.

(b). Please test the hypothesis that the Standard Deviation of the 2015 class on this question is different than it is for the 2018 class at a significance level of 0.05. Please do problem by hand and find the correct critical value using the R Studio (software program).

The introductory biology class at a large university is taught to hundreds of students each semester. For planning purposes, the instructor wants to find out the average amount of time that students would use to take the first quiz if they could have as long as necessary to take it. She takes a random sample of 100 students from this population and finds that their average time for taking the quiz is 20 minutes, and the standard deviation is 10...

follow the 10-step hypothesis testing procedure; in the step of “calculation of test statistic”, use MATLAB to obtain the ANOVA table and find the results accordingly. (prob VI does not need 10 steps) Before you start, make sure you can tell 1-way, 2-way or n-way ANOVA is going to be used. If the post analysis is needed, use MATLAB function ‘multcompare’. Attach all MATLAB results/figures/tables and draw your conclusion accordingly. Packed cell volume determinations were made on two groups of...

The topic for this week is Inferential Statistics including Hypothesis Testing. This statistical methodology is used to test for a statistically significant difference. Compare the mortality rate between two different countries of interest or between the Worldwide rate and any one country of interest. You will perform a Two Sample Hypothesis Test of Proportions to compare the data. Be sure to conduct a complete five step Hypothesis Test. You may want to review the example problems posted in this week’s discussion stream. State the conclusions...

Question 1 A university claims that the average cost of books per student, per semester is $300. A group of students believes that the actual mean is higher than this. They take a random sample of 100 students and calculate the sample mean to be $345 with a standard deviation of $200. a) Perform a z-test to see if the students are correct, that the true mean is greater than $300 using α = 0.05.
