A paired t-test is the standard procedure for testing this null hypothesis.

We use a paired t-test because each worker was measured twice, once for Paired t-test for

each workplace, so the observations on the two workplaces are dependent. paired data

Fast workers are probably fast for both workplaces, and slow workers are

slow for both. Thus what we do is compute the difference (standard − er-

gonomic) for each worker, and test the null hypothesis that the average of

these differences is zero using a one sample t-test on the differences.

Table 2.2 gives the differences between standard and ergonomic times.

Recall the setup for a one sample t-test. Let d1, d2, . . ., dn be the n differ-

ences in the sample. We assume that these differences are independent sam-

ples from a normal distribution with mean µ and variance σ

Our null hypothesis is that the mean µ equals prespecified value µ0 = 0

(H0 : µ = µ0 = 0), and our alternative is H1 : µ > 0 because we expect the

workers to be faster in the ergonomic workplace.

If our null hypothesis is correct and our assumptions are true, then the t-

statistic follows a t-distribution with n − 1 degrees of freedom.

The p-value for a test is the probability, assuming that the null hypothesis

is true, of observing a test statistic as extreme or more extreme than the one The p-value

we did observe. “Extreme” means away from the the null hypothesis towards

the alternative hypothesis. Our alternative here is that the true average is

larger than the null hypothesis value, so larger values of the test statistic are

extreme. Thus the p-value is the area under the t-curve with n − 1 degrees of

freedom from the observed t-value to the right. (If the alternative had been

µ < µ0, then the p-value is the area under the curve to the left of our test

Step-by-step explanation: Through the laid down FORMULA ABOVE

the answer is 200

step-by-step explanation:

the way the question is worded, it seems to imply the $264 interest is simple interest, not compound interest.

the simple interest for 2 years is $264; the simple interest for 1 year is $132.

$132 interest on a $600 investment means an interest rate of (132/600)*100 = 22%.

the value of $200 at 22% interest compounded annually for three years is

200%281.22%29%5e3

the amount of interest is that value, minus the original $200.

answer: 0+0=0
