An independent-measures research study uses two samples, each with n = 12 participants.  If the data produce a t statistic of t = 2.50, then which of the following is the correct decision for a two-tailed hypothesis test?

What is the value of Σ(X – 2) for the following scores?  Scores: 2, 3, 5

For a sample with s = 12, a score of X = 73 corresponds to z = 1.00.  What is the sample mean?

A student investigated how washing with soap affects bacteria levels on the hands. She tested three different methods—washing with water only, washing with regular soap, and washing with antibacterial soap. She randomly assigned 99 students to one of the 3 treatments. Participants washed their hands with the assigned method and cultures were taken and incubated. Based on the SPSS output below, was there a significant difference among the three hand-washing methods and why?

A sample has M = 72 and s = 4.  In this sample, what is the X value corresponding to z = –2.00?
