    This document contains summaries of several statistical tests run on different datasets: 1) An independent t-test found a significant difference in mean displacement between cars with 4 and 6 cylinders. 2) A one-way ANOVA test found no significant difference in opinions of a reasonable monthly water bill based on respondents' age. 3) A linear regression test found a weak positive relationship between total chlorine and chloroform content in water. 4) A paired t-test found a significant difference between free chlorine and total chlorine levels in water samples. 5) A one-sample t-test revealed a significant deviation from the standard 140mm pipe diameter.

    INDEPENDENT T-TEST FOR CAR DATA

    This test is checking if the number of cylinders in the car affects the displacement. This test
    specifically focuses on cars with 6 and 4 cylinders.

    assumed

    The significance is 0.025 which is less than 0.05, so the null hypothesis is rejected because there
    is a significant difference between the mean displacements for cars with 4 and 6 cylinders.

    ONE WAY ANOVA TEST

    The test is checking if the age of the respondents affects their opinion of a reasonable monthly
    water bill.

    what do you think is the reasonable monthly water bill

    Within Groups 34.179 69 .495

    Total 36.875 71
    The significance is 0.073. This is greater than 0.05, so there is no significant difference in the
    opinions a reasonable monthly water bill, so the null hypothesis is accepted.

    LINEAR REGRESSION TEST

    This test is checking if the total chlorine in water is dependent on the chloroform content in the
    water.

    Model Summary

    Model (Selected) R Square Square Estimate

    1 .257a .066 -.006 .35254

    a. Predictors: (Constant), Chloroform(µg/L)


    The correlation coefficient is 0.257, showing there is a weak positive linear relationship between
    the total chlorine and the amount of chloroform in the water.

    a. Dependent Variable: Total Chlorine (mg/L)

    b. Selecting only cases for which Group1 < 3.00


    R2 is 0.066, which shows the data is not very close to its fitted regression line.

    PAIRED SAMPLES T-TEST

    This test checks if there is a significant difference between the amount of free chlorine in the
    water and the total amount of chlorine in the water.
    Paired Samples Test

    - Total Chlorine
    (mg/L)
    The significance is 0.006, less than 0.05. This shows that there is a significant difference
    between the amount of free chlorine in the water and the amount of total chlorine.

    ONE SAMPLE T-TEST

    To test the deviation of the pipe diameters from the chosen standard 140mm.

    One-Sample Test

    Test Value = 140

    95% Confidence Interval of the


    Difference

    t df Sig. (2-tailed) Mean Difference Lower Upper

    The significance is 0.006, which is less than 0.05, so there is a significant deviation from pipe
    diameter of140mm.
