You suspect the distribution of the population is not normal and may be moderately skewed. Which of the following statements is correct? A. You may use the t procedure, provided your sample size is large, say at least fifty B. You may use the t procedure, but you should probably only claim the significance level is 0.10 C. You may not use the t procedure. t procedures are robust to nonnormality for confidence intervals but not for tests of hypotheses. D. You should not use the t procedure because the population does not have a normal distribution. Problem 1 Problem 2 Problerri 3...

In which of the following circumstances would we NOT be safe using a t procedure? A. A histogram of the data shows moderate skewness. B. A stemplot of the data has a large outlier C. The mean and median of the data are nearly equal D. The sample standard deviation is large (c) Which of the following is an example of a matched pairs design? A. A teacher compares the pre-test and post-test scores of students. B. A teacher compares the scores of students using a computer based method of instruction with scores of other students using a traditional method of instruction. C. A teacher compares the scores of students in her class on a standardized test with the national average score D. A teacher calculates the average scores of students on a pair of tests and wishes to see if this average is larger than 80% ShowX 8:37 PM Type here to search 11/20/2017 74

Explanation / Answer

Ans:

When the population standard deviation is unknown, one uses s to estimate the population standard deviation. The resulting interval is the one sample t-interval. Conditions to use the t-interval are:

a)option A is correct(we can use procedure for larger sample size say>=50)

b)Option B is correct(if data has large or extrem outlier that we can not remove,we can not use t test)

c)Option A is correct(teacher compares the pr etest and post test scores of the students.
