Hypothesis was H0 : mu = 2, H1, mu > 2

Test statistic was about 2.6


Oh thank ****

How many marks was the last part of q4? I think it was 2 to say which test is better but could be wrong.

Weren't you meant to find the mean by adding the two values and dividing by 2. The use one of the bounds eg lower to work out the sample variance by using xbar -t9(0.025) x s/root(n)

And rearrange to get S
Then square S and use the (n-1)S^2 / Chi squared values?

Came out to 76.something and 1034. Something

Yes. I got ur answers dw!

Sh*t. I did a 99% confidence interval for the mean...

Wasnt it subtraction of mus?

Dw we dont need much in this module! I only needed like 9 ums.

Are you doing all the math modules?

I did D = weight before - weight after (paired t-test)

so mu(d) = 2 in the null hypothesis

Yeh.


D1 last week I did it then checked, realized I did a question completely wrong, and decided it wasn't worth the mental energy and stress to change because 1 modules don't count to A* :smile:

For the weights one was it H0: Mux=Muy+5 and H1:Mux>Muy+5?

For the First paired t test: H0:Mud=2 and H1:Mud>2

That's exactly what I did : )

Same, I also learnt most of it yesterday and I found it pretty easy :0

Question 1: Significant (designer)
Question 2: Not significant for both mean and standard deviation (pigs)
Question 3: 0.3828 for the Type II Error
Question 4: Test A was better
Question 5: Not significant for both F-test variance and two sample t-test (fire brigade)
Question 6: End up with n>1 S is better than Y
Question 7: 76.1, 1034 (I should be right, it asked for the confidence interval for variance instead of mean)


I also finished learning it yesterday, also found it quite easy and agree with all the answers I can remember. :smile:

Cant remember properly but were the critical regions x<=5 and x>=15?

>=15? For which question?

Oh no did I mess that up? For the hard and soft sweets?

Yep and Type I Error was 0.404 or something close

I don't think it was 0.404, that's way too big for a type 1 error, and SB007, do you mean 15 for part c? I used p=0.25 and did P(X>=6) (I think
Can't quite remember)

My mistake, I meant 0.0404 :P

I thought part C was P(6 <= X <= 14 | p=0.25)? Dunno
