Stats 12 Assignment

The HIM department was offered a new scanning software model by the manufacturer. To evaluate the claim that it is more efficient, the department tracked the number of documents scanned per minute using the old vs new software over January. A z-test was conducted to determine if there is a statistically significant difference between the scanning speeds of the old and new software.

1. What is the null hypothesis?


2. Run a paired two sample for mean t-test on this data and place your output in cell F1.
3. Is the difference between the means statistically significant? YES, the difference between the mean is signi
4. Why? Because p (0.00283) is less than the significance level (0.05).

The HIM department has been approached by the manufacturer of the scanning software with an
offer to purchase their new model. The company claims the new machine is much more efficient and
can scan more documents per minute than the current model and they are willing to let your
department try it for a month. The CEO wants data on this efficiency before considering the price.
