The mean score on a science assessment for 59 male high school students was 319.5 and the standard deviation 2.5. The mean test score on the same test for 40 female high school students was 298.9 and the standard deviation was 1.2. For this assessment, the population standard deviation for males is σ = 2.3 and the population standard deviation for females is σ = 2.0. At a = 0.02 , can you support the claim that mean scores on the science assessment for male high school students were higher than for the female high school students?

Thsis value is very high and if we find the p value we would get:

So then we have enough evidence to support the claim that the true mean for males is higher than the true mean for females.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

represent the mean for the sample male

represent the mean for the sample female

represent the population standard deviation for the males  

represent the population standard deviation for the females  

sample size for the group male  

sample size for the group female  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

System of hypothesis

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if that mean scores on the science assessment for male high school students were higher than for the female high school students, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:  

Alternative hypothesis:  

The staistic for this case is:

(1)

With the info given we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

Thsis value is very high and if we find the p value we would get:

So then we have enough evidence to support the claim that the true mean for males is higher than the true mean for females.

step-by-step explanation: the declaration of the rights of man and of the citizen (french: déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen de 1789), set by france's national constituent assembly in 1789, is a human civil rights document from the french revolution.[1]

the declaration was drafted by the abbé sieyès and the marquis de lafayette, in consultation with thomas jefferson.[2] influenced by the doctrine of "natural right", the rights of man are held to be universal: valid at all times and in every place, pertaining to human nature itself. it became the basis for a nation of free individuals protected equally by the law. it is included in the beginning of the constitutions of both the fourth french republic (1946) and fifth republic (1958) and is still current. inspired by the enlightenment philosophers, the declaration was a core statement of the values of the french revolution and had a major impact on the development of freedom and democracy in europe and worldwide.[3]

the 1789 declaration, together with the 1215 magna carta, the 1689 english bill of rights (1689), the 1776 united states declaration of independence, and the 1789 united states bill of rights, inspired in large part the 1948 united nations universal declaration of human rights
