When choosing an item from a group, researchers have shown that an important factor influencing choice is the item's location. This occurs in varied situations such as shelf positions when shopping, filling out a questionnaire, and even choosing a preferred candidate during a presidential debateIn this experiment, five identical pairs of white socks were displayed by attaching them vertically to a blue background that was then mounted on an easel for viewingOne hundred participants from the University of Chester were used as subjects and asked to choose their preferred pairs of socksIn situations of this type, subjects often exhibit the "center stage effect," which is a tendency to choose the item in the center. this experiment, 34 subjects chose the pair of socks in the center. Are these data evidence of the "center stage effect"? STATE: Are the students choosing pairs of socks randomly? If the students were choosing socks at random, what would be the chance, of a pair being selected? (Enter your answer rounded to one decimal place.) p 0

Listed below are time intervals (min) between eruptions of a geyser. assume that the "recent" times are within the past few years, the "past" times are from around 20 years ago, and that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations. do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. does it appear that the mean time interval has changed? is the conclusion affected by whether the significance level is 0.10 or 0.01? recent 78 90 90 79 57 101 62 87 71 87 81 84 57 80 74 103 62 past 88 89 93 94 65 85 85 92 87 91 89 91 follow the steps of hypothesis testing, including identifying the alternative and null hypothesis, calculating the test statistic, finding the p-value, and making a conclusions about the null hypothesis and a final conclusion that addresses the original claim. use a significance level of 0.10. is the conclusion affected by whether the significance level is 0.10 or 0.01? answer choices below: a) yes, the conclusion is affected by the significance level because h0 is rejected when the significance level is 0.01 but is not rejected when the significance level is 0.10. b) no, the conclusion is not affected by the significance level because h0 is not rejected regardless of whether a significance level of 0.10 or 0.01 is used. c) yes, the conclusion is affected by the significance level because h0 is rejected when the significance level is 0.10 but is not rejected when the significance level is 0.01. d) no, the conclusion is not affected by the significance level because h0 is rejected regardless of whether a significance level of 0.10 or 0.01 is used.
