Data Final Project

The document presents a series of statistical hypothesis tests conducted on various samples, including height measurements of students, calcium intake of adults, cholesterol levels between two diet groups, and hemoglobin levels in children with iron-deficiency anemia versus healthy children. Each test follows a structured approach, including defining hypotheses, determining significance levels, calculating p-values, and drawing conclusions based on the results. In all cases, the null hypothesis was accepted, indicating that the distributions and variances were considered normal.

Question 1:

A random sample of 25 students was drawn on rolls of a school


and their heights measured to the nearest cm are given as follows:

116 114 102 113 119 110 119 110 117 118
109 126 122 111 114 122 119 116 126 125
113 128 124 113 122
Test the hypothesis that the mean height in the population is
120 cm. assume that the distribution of heights is normal.
Step 1: Pair of hypothesis
Ho=the distribution of data is normal
H1= the distribution of data is not normal
2: Level of significance

= 0.05 (5%)

Step 3: Critical region

If P-value < , we reject H0


If P-value > , we accept H0

Step 4: Test statistic

Shapiro-wilk test
Step 5: Calculation of p-value through computer

So p= 0.100
Step 6: Conclusion

As the p-value = 0.100> 0.05, so we accept ho and we conclude that distribution is


normal
Question 2:
A nutritionist claims that the average daily calcium intake of adults
is 700 mg. A sample of 12 individuals reports a mean intake of 650
mg with a standard deviation of 80 mg. At a 5% significance level,
test whether the average calcium intake is different from 700 mg.
Participant Calcium Intake (mg)
1 620
2 670
3 640
4 710
5 580
6 660
7 650
8 690
9 630
10 600
11 680
12 620
Step 1: Pair of hypothesis
Ho=the distribution of data is normal
H1= the distribution of data is not normal
2: Level of significance

= 0.05 (5%)

Step 3: Critical region

If P-value < , we reject H0


If P-value > , we accept H0

Step 4: Test statistic

Shapiro-wilk test
Step 5: Calculation of p-value through computer

So p =0.100

Step 6: Conclusion
As the p-value = 0.100> 0.05, so we accept ho and we conclude that distribution is
normal

Question 3:
A health researcher wants to compare the mean cholesterol levels between two
groups of individuals: those who follow a low-fat diet (Group A) and those who
follow a high-fat diet (Group B). The cholesterol levels of the participants are
recorded, and a normality check is performed for both groups before conducting the t-
test.

Group A (Low-Fat Diet): 10 participants

Group B (High-Fat Diet): 10 participants

Group Cholesterol Level (mg/dL)

Group A 180, 185, 190, 195, 200, 185, 180, 210, 220, 200
Group B 250, 260, 240, 255, 270, 265, 275, 280, 265, 260

Step 1: Pair of hypothesis


Ho=the variance of data are normal
H1= the variances of data is not normal
2: Level of significance

= 0.05 (5%)

Step 3: Critical region

If P-value < , we reject H0


If P-value > , we accept H0

Step 4: Test statistic

Levence’s test
Step 5: Calculation of p-value through computer

So p =0.652
Step 6: Conclusion

As the p-value = 0.652 >0.05, so we accept ho and we conclude that variances are
equal .

Question 4:
Two random samples, each of 50 children, were selected from two different
populations. Population A had iron-deficiency anemia, while Population B had
healthy children in the same age group as Population A. The hemoglobin (Hb)
measurements were collected for each child. Can we say at a 5% level of
significance that mean Hb is different in the two populations?

Step 6: Conclusion

As the p-value = 0.108 >0.05, so we accept ho and we conclude that variances are
equal .
