A student hypothesized that girls in his class had the same blood pressure levels as boys. The probability value for his null hypothesis was 0.15. So he concluded that the blood pressures of the girls were higher than boys'. Which kind of mistake did he make? a. Type I error b. Type II error c. Type I and Type II error d. He did not make any mistake [B]d. He did not make any mistake[/B] [I]p value is high, especially using a significance level of 0.05[/I]

Imagine a researcher wanted to test the effect of the new drug on reducing blood pressure. In this study, there were 50 participants. The researcher measured the participants' blood pressure before and after the drug intake. If we want to compare the mean blood pressure from the two time periods with a two-tailed t test, how many degrees of freedom are there? a. 49 b. 50 c. 99 d. 100 [B]a. 49[/B] Degrees of Freedom = n - 1 Degrees of Freedom = 50 - 1 Degrees of Freedom = 49

In a hurricane the wind pressure varies directly as the square of the wind velocity. If a wind pressure is a measure of a hurricane's destruction capacity, what happens to this destructive power when the wind speed doubles? Let P = pressure and v = velocity (wind speed) We are given p = v^2 Double velocity, so we have a new pressure P2: P2 = (2v)^2 P2 = 4v^2 Compare the 2: p = v^2 p = 4v^2 Doubling the wind speed [B]quadruples, or 4 times[/B] the pressure.

The doctor told Anna that tomorrow she will have to check her blood pressure every 15 minutes from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. How many times does she have to take her blood pressure? 10:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. is 6 hours. Each hour is 60 minutes 60 minutes divided by 15 minutes equals 4 blood pressure checks per hour. 4 blood pressure checks per hour * 6 hours = [B]24 blood pressure checks[/B]
