die more often than chance would predict. To test this‚ a die is rolled 100 times and the gambler guesses the number that comes up twenty times and guesses incorrectly the other eighty times. Is this strong evidence that the gambler’s claim is true? a. Specify the null and alternative hypothesis for this problem. p = probability gambler guess correctly for an individual roll null (Ho): p = 1/6 alternative (Ha): p > 1/6 b. Find the test statistic and calculate the p-value. What do you conclude

I read Barron’s How to Prepare for the AP Statistics Exam. A very educational book helped a lot on the AP test. It clarified ideas that I was uncertain on. It helped me to understand when to use each test and the assumptions needed for each test. Type I and Type II errors were explained in such a way that they became crystal clear to me instead of muddy. Computer and Minitab outputs were thoroughly explained‚ and I became comfortable with them after reading this book. The Barron’s guide also

Association and Causation Statistics is the science pertaining to the collection and analysis of data. It is the refinement of the ambiguous‚ the distilling of truth from the crudest of resources. For this reason‚ it is necessary to discern the simplest path from Point A to Point B‚ disregarding any unnecessary data that may lie in the path. This‚ however‚ is easier in theory than in practice‚ and statisticians have developed various techniques to help differentiate between causation‚ a variable

The T-TEST 1.0 INTRODUCTION The t-test was developed by W. S. Gossett‚ a statistician employed at the Guinness brewery. However‚ because the brewery did not allow employees to publish their research‚ Gossett’s work on the t-test appears under the name "Student". The t-test is sometimes referred to as "Student’s t-test." Gossett was a chemist and was responsible for developing procedures for ensuring the similarity of batches of Guinness. The t-test was developed as a way of measuring how closely

from chance alone. The alternative hypothesis is represented by H1 and is a complement of the null hypothesis; that is‚ the finding did not occur by chance. The alternative hypothesis is a statement of what the research is set to establish. Hypothesis test assesses two mutually separate statements about a population to determine which statement is best supported by the sample data; the null hypothesis (Ho) no change and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) with change. The null hypothesis is the most important
