WORD PROBLEM #4 Use the following set of sample data to answer the next 4 questions. X 1 3 5 7 8 9 9                    

WORD PROBLEM #3 The following data are from an independent-measures experiment comparing two treatment conditions for a smoking cessation program. Two different types of treatments were tested with some participants in the Nicorette group (i.e., nicotine gum) and the rest of the participants were in the nicotine free vaping group.  Do these data indicate participants using Nicorette differ from participants using nicotine free vapes? Use a two-tailed test with

Look at the distribution for this word problem and determine if X =98 is a score that is noticeably different from the mean.  In your answer indicate yes or no and then explain why you selected your answer (i.e., back up with reasoning from facts learned in this class). 

WORD PROBLEM #1 At the beginning of the school year, a teacher recruits 5 students from a third grade class and gives them a reading skills test. To evaluate the changes that occur during the year, these same students are tested again at the end of the year.  Their test scores revealed an average change of = 4 points.  If the sample standard deviation for the difference scores is = 2, are these results sufficient to conclude there is a significant difference in test scores between the beginning and the end of the school year?  Use a two-tailed test with
