Question
12. Eight males and eight females volunteered to be part of an experiment. All 16 people were Caucasian and between the ages of 18 and 24. Each of the eight male participants was randomly assigned to a night club, and each of the eight females was randomly assigned to one of these same eight night clubs. One Friday night, all 16 people went out to the bar. Each person then went up to the bar to order a drink (within 5 minutes of one another, with the order randomly determined.) The time (in seconds) until each customer was served was recorded. The table below contains some information that may be helpful: Females mean - 48 Males mean - 62 std. dev. = 23 Difference (d-Female-Male) mean =-14 std. dev, 15 std. dev, 18 The question of interest in this experiment is whether females receive faster service at bars on average than males. Assume the appropriate normality conditions are satisfied. What is the P-value for the appropriate test of significance? (A) between 0.005 and 0.01 (B) between 0.01 and 0.02 (C) between 0.02 and 0.025 (D) between 0.025 and 0.05 (E) between 0.05 and 0.10Explanation / Answer
