Question 1 (1 point)
.0/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image002.png”>
Consider a scenario in
which we decide to compare the price of our textbook on eBay versus in the
University bookstore. For that purpose, we collect 20 observations of sold used
copies of the book on eBay. The average price on eBay is $50. We also compute
the sample standard deviation of $11. The price at the University bookstore is
$75 for a used copy.
Please construct a 95% significance
test for the hypothesis that the average price of the used book on eBay is $75
and state the results of the test here.

Question 2 (1 point)

Consider a scenario where you have
two samples. Sample 1 contains 30 observations, has the sample average value of
37 and the sample standard deviation of 2.5. Sample 2 contains 20 observations,
has the sample average of 39 and the sample standard deviation of 2.0.
Based on this information, please
conduct a 90% significance test for the equality of the two population means.
Note that we don’t know the population standard deviations but we can assume
that they are equal.

37 and the sample standard deviation of 2.5. Sample 2 contains 20 observations,
has the sample average of 39 and the sample standard deviation of

can assume that they are equal.

has the sample average of 39 and the sample standard deviation of 2.0. Based on
this information, please conduct a 90% significance test for the hypothesis
that the population mean 2 exceeds the population mean 1 by exactly 3. Please
keep in mind that we don’t know the population standard deviations but can
assume that they are equal.

Please use the dataset below to conduct a hypothesis test for
the equality of the two population means. Please do so with 95% significance. Also
assume that the two population standard deviations are unknown and cannot be
assumed equal.
