Hypothesis Testing: Two-Sample Case for the Mean Many cases in the social sciences involve a hypothesis about the difference between two groups (i.e. men and women‚ control and experiment). We analyze statistics from two samples‚ and the hypothesis and confidence interval would deal with the difference between two population means. The following factors are important in hypothesis testing: 1. probability theory 2. the sampling distribution of the statistic 3. the errors inherent

A random sample of 50 people who joined the new weight reduction program revealed the mean loss to be 9 pounds. At the .05 level of significance‚ can we conclude that those joining Weight Reducers on average will lose less than 10 pounds? Determine the p-value. Answer: H0: = 10 pounds

Unrestricted random sampling will be used to get samples from the population (all year levels) wherein each student in the population has equal chance of inclusion in the sample. Data gathering will employ questionnaire which the proponent admits has the limitation of bias. Thus‚ the

On January 9th‚ 1917‚ Chancellor Bethmann Hollweg announced the use of unrestricted submarine warfare. Hollweg decided that the policy of a wholesale-unrestricted attack might keep America out of the war. Due to the weakness of the country at the moment‚ their best line of defense would be through these unrestricted attacks. Americas “neutral ships” had been moving across the Atlantic bringing in supplies for the allies. This brought Hollweg to the conclusion to use U- boats and use this zone of

Unrestricted Submarine Warfare German’s warlords responded with a blow of the mailed fist. On January 31‚ 1917‚ they announced to an astonished world their decision to wage unrestricted submarine warfare‚ sinking all ships‚ including America’s‚ in the war zone. Unrestricted Submarine Warfare was important‚ because almost 70‚000 people died because of German Submarines.

The subsequent events that instigated the release of the Zimmerman Telegram began with German’s policy of unrestricted submarine warfare. This policy allowed German U-boats to attack merchant ships without warning‚ in hopes of undermining the British by blocking their line of supply from North America. The United States remained neutral at the time‚ however in
