Question: 120 In the 1908, W.S Gosset published “The Probable Error of a Mean”. In this pioneering paper, published under the pseudonym “Student,” he introduced that later became known as Student’s t-distribution. Gosset used the following data set, which gives the additional sleep in hours obtained by 10 patients who used laevohysocyamine hydro bromide.
1.9 | 0.8 | 1.1 | 0.1 | -0.1 |
4.4 | 5.5 | 1.6 | 4.6 | 3.4 |
a. Identify the variable under consideration.
b. Identify the two populations
c. Identify the paired-difference variable.
d. Are the members in the table paired differences? Why or why not?
e. At the 5% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that laevohysocyamine hydro bromide is effective in increasing sleep? (Note:
f. Repeat part (e) at the 1% significance level.
