... way of rejecting the null hypothesis (that the mean is overweight). If we are following test #1, where the critical region is the right tail, we are in the acceptance region at any level lower than 8.247%, like the usual 1%, 5%, or even 8%, that is, at these levels, we cannot reject the hypothesis t ...

... If we take two sets of five measurements using two calibrated instruments and the mean results are x–1 5.14 and x–2 5.16, we would like to know if the two sets of results are statistically identical. So we calculate the standard deviation for both sets and find s1 0.114 and s2 0.193. The pool ...

Simple Linear Regression Using Statgraphics
... Although we will not derive the formula for the mean square error, s 2 , we can justify the degrees of freedom in the denominator as follows. We begin the problem of estimating model parameters with the n independent bits of information obtained from the sample. However, prior to estimating the err ...
