Find the mean number of points for the basketball team and the standard deviation. Player Points St. Dev. John 5 1 Tim 8 2 Ed 12 4 Marcus 10 3 Demetrius 14 4 Inference Test of Difference of Means Section 11.1 Experiment Separate – boys girls. Take Pulse rates Remember…. Independent Selection of one sample does not influence the selection of the other sample So if we want to estimate the difference in means between two populations….. The point estimate is: So For the difference of means what is the standard deviation? The properties of the sampling distribution of If n1 and n2 are sufficiently large or the populations normal, then the distribution will be approximately normal. So what is the z-score for the difference in boys and girls pulse rates? Remember: Use t test if σ is unknown T-Test statistic Use boxplot to check for normal if samples are small data given. So is there a difference between boys and girls? Assumptions: D.F. is a little more complicated! A conservative estimate of the P-value can be found by using a df = smaller of either n1-1 or n2-1. Let’s try one! College financial aid offices expect students to use summer earnings to help pay for college. But how large are these earnings? One large university studied this by asking a random sample of 1296 students who had summer jobs how much they earned. They were then separated into two groups based on gender. Is there a difference in the amount males and females earn? Amounts different for males females? ? n mean st. dev. Males 675 $1884.52 $1368.37 Females 621 $1360.39 $1037.46 Parameter: = true mean amount males earned = true mean amount females earned Hypothesis or Assumptions Random: samples chosen randomly Approximately normal: n130 and n230. Independent: more than 6750 males and 6210 females Name Use a 2 sample T test of means since σ is unknown Test Statistic Obtain a P-value P-value = tcdf (7.81, ∞., 620)*2 ≈ 0 Now to finish it up!
