Data on the weights (lb) of the contents of cans of diet soda versus the contents of cans of the regular version of the soda is summarized to the right. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. Use a 0.05 significance level for both parts. Diet Regular ?: ?? ?? n: 24 24 x?: 0.79727 lb 0.81644 lb s: 0.00441 lb 0.00747 lb a. Test the claim that the contents of cans of diet soda have weights with a mean that is less than the mean for the regular soda. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? A. H?: ?? = ?? H?: ?? < ?? B. H?: ?? = ?? H?: ?? > ?? C. H?: ?? ? ?? H?: ?? < ?? D. H?: ?? = ?? H?: ?? ? ?? The test statistic, t, is (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The P-value is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) State the conclusion for the test. A. Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the cans of diet soda have mean weights that are lower than the mean weight for the regular soda. B. Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the cans of diet soda have mean weights that are lower than the mean weight for the regular soda. C. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the cans of diet soda have mean weights that are lower than the mean weight for the regular soda. D. Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the cans of diet soda have mean weights that are lower than the mean weight for the regular soda. b. Construct a confidence interval appropriate for the hypothesis test in part (a). lb < ?? - ?? < lb (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Does the confidence interval support the conclusion found with the hypothesis test? because the confidence interval contains

The purpose of a confidence interval is to ________. For an independent-measures research study, the value of Cohen's d or r² helps to describe ________. 19. A researcher reports t(24) = 5.30 for an independent-measures experiment. How many individuals participated in the entire experiment? 20. Each student at a school has a student identification number. Counselors have a computer generate 50 random identification numbers and those students are asked to take a survey. What type of sampling is this? 21. A researcher expects a treatment to produce an increase in the population mean. The treatment is evaluated using a one tailed hypothesis test, and the test produces z = -1.85. Based on this result, what is the correct statistical decision? 22. When a random sample is selected from a population, the sample mean is not expected to be exactly equal to the population mean. On average, the size of the difference between the sample mean and the population mean is predicted by ________. 23. In what circumstances is the t statistic used instead of a z-score for a hypothesis test?
