For a class project, statistics students asked students in their class (30 students) how many hours of sleep they had gotten the night before, and also recorded each students gender. The students found that the average sleep hours for the 12 males in the class was 5.8 hours with a standard deviation of 1.5 and for the 18 females in the class was 6.5 hours with a standard deviation of 1.2 hours. The distributions of sleep hours were fairly symmetric for both males and females. The students were interested in learning whether males and females at their school tend to get different amounts of sleep on average. - When applying the 3-S strategy to this data, the statistic is - in the simulation, you should have - after shuffling the slips of paper you should deal the slips into

- 0.7 hours - 30 slips of paper total and the sleep time for the student written on each slip of paper - One pile of 18 slips and one pile of 12

When studying quantitative (numeric) data, which of the following should we examine?

- Medians of the distributions if skewed - variability of the distributions (standard deviation) - center of the distributions (mean)

The students found that the average sleep hours for the 12 males in the class was 5.8 hours with a standard deviation of 1.5 and for the 18 females in the class was 6.5 hours with a standard deviation of 1.2 hours. The distributions of sleep hours were fairly symmetric for both males and females. The students were interested in learning whether males and females at their school tend to get different amounts of sleep on average. - A 95% confidence interval for the difference in average sleep time is (-0.38, 1.78). Thus, the p-value for the corresponding two-sided of significance will be - The theory-based test is ? - A 95% confidence interval for the difference in average sleep times is (-0.38, 1.78) means that we're 95% confident that the true average difference in sleep times between males and females at your school is between -0.38 and 1.78 hours.
