The next two questions refer to the following situation. In order to compare two kinds of feed, thirteen pigs are split into two groups, and each group received one feed. The following are the gains in weight (kilograms) after a fixed period of time:

Feed A: 8.0 7.4 5.8 6.2 8.8 9.5

Feed B: 12.0 18.2 8.0 9.6 8.2 9.9 10.3

We wish to test the hypothesis that Feed B gives rise to larger weight gains.

20. The appropriate test statistic and p-value are:

(a) T_= -2.4048; p-value = .0431

(b) T_= -2.4048; p-value = .0216

(c) T_= -2.2596; p-value = .0451

(d) T_= -2.2596; p-value = .0256

(e) F’ = 6.85; p-value = .0520

21. The results were written up in a report, but a reviewer of the report thought that some of the assumptions necessary for a two-sample t-test might be violated. Consequently, a non-parametric procedure was also done. The rank-sum test statistic computed for Feed A and the corresponding p-value are:

(a) W = 25.5 p-value = .009

(b) W = 25.5 p-value = .018

(c) W = 23.5 p-value = .003

(d) W = 23.5 p-value = .006

(e) W = 7.45 p-value = .043

The next four questions refer to the following information: Two methods, A and B, are available for teaching a certain industrial skill. There is a 95% chance of successfully learning the skill if method A is used, and an 80% chance of success if method B is used. However, method A is substantially more expensive and is therefore used only 25% of the time (method B is used the other 75% of the time). The following notations are suggested: A—method...
