Recall the experiment comparing patients 4 weeks after surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome. The patients who had endoscopic surgery demonstrated

a mean pinch strength of 9.1 kg compared to 7.6 kg for the open- incision

patients.

4. What hypotheses would you test?

5. The P-value of the test was less than 0.05. State a brief conclusion.

4. H0: u1= u2    Ha; u1≠ u2

5. The smaller value of p supports the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

4. The null and alternate hypotheses are

H0: u1= u2   i.e there no difference between the mean pinch strengthof the two surgeries

against the claim

Ha; u1≠ u2   i.e there a difference between the mean pinch strengthof the two surgeries

It can be written like this as well

H0: u1 -u2= 0   i.e there no difference between the mean pinch strengthof the two surgeries

against the claim

Ha; u1 -u2≠ 0   i.e there a difference between the mean pinch strengthof the two surgeries

Part 5. The test having a p- value less than 0.05  tells that the null hypothesis cannot be rejected. Theres no evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

The smaller value of p supports the null hypothesis.

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
