A coach uses a new technique to train gymnasts. 7 gymnasts were randomly selected and their competition scores were recorded before and after the training. The results are shown below. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the training technique is effective in rising the gymnasts’ scores.

We are interested to see whether the level of the minimum wage affects employment. In order to study this issue they got data from a random sample of 330 California fast food restaurants before and after an increase in the Californian minimum wage from $3.30 to $4.10 per hour. The change in full time equivalent employees per restaurant in the sample before and after the increase was 0.8 with a variance of 77.5.

Test whether this suggests the increase in the minimum wage had an effect on employment.

a. A buffer solution contains 0.274 M NH4Br and 0.379 M NH3 (ammonia). Determine the pH change when 0.103 mol HBr is added to 1.00 L of the buffer.
pH after addition − pH before addition = pH change =

b. A buffer solution contains 0.432 M NaH2PO4 and 0.209 M K2HPO4. Determine the pH change when 0.113 mol KOH is added to 1.00 L of the buffer.

. Business owners often rely on experts in search engine optimization to increase the number of people who visit the business website. A study was conducted of 7 comparable small businesses before and after implementing a plan for search engine optimization. The number of visitors per day for each business, based on the day before and after implementing the plan, is shown.

(a) Explain the requirements that the data must meet to conduct the hypothesis test described in (b).

(b) Specify the hypotheses for a t-test to see whether the mean number of visitors differs before and after search engine optimization.

(b) Conduct a hypothesis test with a = 0.05, estimating the t-statistic and the p-value.

(c) Report:

the level of significance,

            the type and value of the test statistic (including degrees of freedom if appropriate),

            the p-value (exact values if possible, or a range of possible values), and

            the implications for the null hypothesis.

Do the results indicate that search-engine optimization results in an immediate increase (next day) in the number of visitors to the website?

A study was conducted to investigate whether compliance training affected the productivity of the company’s administrative staff. A random sample of 30 administrative staff underwent compliance training. Download and open the Accounts.xlsx file in Excel. This file contains the number of accounts processed by each staff member both in the week before compliance training and again in the week after compliance training.

Use Excel to carry out a suitable test to address the following research question: Is there a difference between the average number of accounts processed by administrative staff before and after compliance training?
