A professor was curious as to whether the students in a very large class she was teaching, who turned in their tests first, scored differently from the class mean on the test. The μ on the test was 75 with σ = 10; the scores were approximately normally distributed. The mean score for the first 20 tests was 78. Did the students turning in their tests first score significantly different from the larger mean at the .05 level?
a) Use the four steps of hypothesis testing b) Illustrate the distributions involved
c) Calculate the 95% confidence interval (*even if ns result)

Recall the researcher who investigated the relationship between hours of sleep and reaction times in the Week 4 Application. As a follow up to that study, the researcher wants to conduct a correlation to investigate further if there is a relationship between hours of sleep and reaction time. For this experiment, participants are allowed to sleep as much as they would like (that is, they are not assigned to sleep any specific number of hours). When 20 participants come to their appointment time, they report to the researcher how many hours of sleep they had the previous night. The researcher then tests their reaction times.

1. 100,000 Massachusetts adults were randomly sampled with two factors recorded: whether or not the individual
had diabetes, and whether or not the person ate Kale. The following gives a table of the results.
Diabetes No Diabetes
Kale: 796 9187
No Kale: 9900 80117
(a) We write p(Diabetes | Kale) for the probability that a Massachusetts adult who eats kale has diabetes.
Either give a value for p(Diabetes | Kale) or explain why it cannot be computed.
(b) We write ^p(Diabetes | Kale) for the proportion of Kale-eating members of our sample above that had
diabetes. Either give a value for ^p(Diabetes | Kale) or explain why it cannot be computed.
(c) Give 95% confidence intervals for the probability of having diabetes for both the kale-eating and non-kale-
eating members of our Massachusetts adults.
(d) Can you conclude that the kale-eaters are less likely to have diabetes? Explain your reasoning.
(e) Can you conclude that kale consumption causes a lower diabetes rate in this population? Explain your
reasoning.
(f) Come up with a possible theory that explains why kale-eaters have a lower rate of diabetes, but does not
assume that kale causes the lower rate.
