Applying a Level of Significance In this activity, you’ll study the data from two experiments. For each data set, you will determine whether the difference of means between the treatment group and the control group is statistically significant and interpret the result in the context of the situation. The results showed that the mean change in the amount of weight lost by the treatment group is 8 points more than that of the control group. To test whether the results could be explained by random chance, researchers created a table that summarizes the results of 1,000 re-randomizations of the data with differences of means rounded to the nearest 2 points. Consider the significance level to be set at 5%, so results less than 5% can be considered statistically significant.

Treatment Group Mean − Control Group Mean (-12, -10, -8, -6, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12)

Frequency ( 1, 10, 28, 58, 125, 184, 201, 186, 114, 57, 26, 8, 2)

Part A Determine the probability of the treatment group’s mean being greater than the control group’s mean by 8 points or more. Part B Is the result statistically significant? Explain your answer. Part C What does your answer mean in the context of drinking protein shakes while on a weight-loss program?

1. an economy consists of three workers: larry, moe, and curly. each works 10 hours a day and can produce two services: mowing lawns and washing cars. in an hour, larry can either mow one lawn or wash one car; moe can either mow one lawn or wash two cars; and curly can either mow two lawns or wash one car. a. calculate how much of each service is produced under the following circumstances: a. all three spend all their time mowing lawns. b. all three spend all their time washing cars. c. all three spend half their time on each activity d. larry spends half of his time on each activity, while moe only washes cars and curly only mows lawns b. using your answers to part a, draw a production possibilities frontier and label points a, b, c, and d on your graph. explain why the production possibilities frontier has the shape it does. c. are any of the allocations calculated in part a inefficient? explain.
