In 1999, it was reported that the mean serum cholesterol level for female undergraduates was 168 mg/dl with a standard deviation of 27 mg/dl. A recent study at Baylor University investigated the lipid levels in a cohort of sedentary university students. The mean total cholesterol level among n = 71 females was 173 mg/dl with a standard deviation of 25 mg/dl .The null and alternative hypotheses are given below: Using the applet at http://www.rossmanchance.com/applets/TOSCalculator.html find the p-value (do not forget to select “one mean” from the Scenario menu at the top of the applet page, and to tick Test of Significance at the top of the graph and adjust the hypothesis given below it to be consistent with the alternative hypothesis). Enter the p-values EXACTLY as you get it at the online applet.
Question
In 1999, it was reported that the mean serum cholesterol level for female undergraduates was 168 mg/dl with a standard deviation of 27 mg/dl. A recent study at Baylor University investigated the lipid levels in a cohort of sedentary university students. The mean total cholesterol level among n = 71 females was 173 mg/dl with a standard deviation of 25 mg/dl .The null and alternative hypotheses are given below: Using the applet at http://www.rossmanchance.com/applets/TOSCalculator.html find the p-value (do not forget to select “one mean” from the Scenario menu at the top of the applet page, and to tick Test of Significance at the top of the graph and adjust the hypothesis given below it to be consistent with the alternative hypothesis). Enter the p-values EXACTLY as you get it at the online applet.
Solution
To find the p-value using the applet at the provided website, follow these steps:
-
Go to the website http://www.rossmanchance.com/applets/TOSCalculator.html
-
Once on the applet page, select "one mean" from the Scenario menu at the top of the page.
-
Tick the box for "Test of Significance" at the top of the graph.
-
Adjust the hypothesis given below the graph to be consistent with the alternative hypothesis.
-
Enter the p-value exactly as you get it from the online applet.
Please note that I am unable to access external websites or perform specific tasks on them. You will need to follow the steps provided on your own to find the p-value using the applet.
