1.The director of training for a company manufacturing electronic equipment is interested in determining whether different training methods have an effect on the productivity of assembly-line employees. She randomly assigns 42 recently hired employees into two groups of 21, of which the first receive a computer-assisted, individual-based training program and the other receive a team-based training program. Upon completion of the training, the employees are evaluated on the time (in seconds) it took to assemble a part. The results are as follows:
Computer-Assisted, Individual-Based Program | Team-Based Program |
19.4 | 22.4 |
20.7 | 18.7 |
21.8 | 19.3 |
14.1 | 15.6 |
16.1 | 18 |
16.8 | 21.7 |
14.7 | 30.7 |
16.5 | 23.7 |
16.2 | 23.2 |
16.4 | 12.3 |
18.5 | 16 |
16.7 | 13.8 |
19.3 | 18 |
16.8 | 20.8 |
17.7 | 17.1 |
19.8 | 28.2 |
19.3 | 20.8 |
16 | 24.7 |
17.7 | 17.4 |
17.4 | 20.1 |
16.8 | 15.2 |
1. Using a .05 level of significance, is there evidence of a difference in the average time to assemble a part between the two programs?
1. Reject, -2.15 < -2.02
2. Fail to reject, -2.15 < -2.02
3. Reject, -2.42 < -2.02
4. Fail to reject, -2.42 < -2.02
2. Using a 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence of a difference in the variances between the two programs?
1. Reject, 4.63 > 2.88
2. Fail to reject, 4.63 > 2.88
3. Reject, 5.60 > 2.46
4. Reject, 5.63 > 2.88
3. Please write the null and alternative hypotheses for both 1 and 2.
