A sociologist focusing on popular culture and media believes that the average
number of hours per week (hrs/week) spent using social media is greater for women
than for men. Examining two independent simple random samples of 100 individuals
each, the researcher calculates sample standard deviations of 2.3 hrs/week and 2.5
hrs/week for women and men respectively. If the average number of hrs/week spent
using social media for the sample of women is 1 hour greater than that for the sample
of men, what conclusion can be made from a hypothesis test where:

 𝐻0: 𝜇𝑊 − 𝜇𝑀 = 0

𝐻1: 𝜇𝑊 − 𝜇𝑀 > 0

The observed difference in average number of hrs/week spent using social media is
significant.

Conclusion is not possible without knowing the average number of hrs/week spent using
social media in each sample

Conclusion is not possible without knowing the population sizes

The observed difference in average number of hrs/week spent using social media is not
significant.

Question 5 0.5 pts

Which statement is NOT true about the 95% confidence level?

Confidence intervals computed by using the same procedure will include the true population
value for 95% of all possible random samples taken from the population.

The procedure that is used to determine the confidence interval will provide an interval that
includes the population parameter with probability of 0.95.

The probability that the true value of the population parameter falls between the bounds of
an already computed confidence interval is roughly 95%.

If we consider all possible randomly selected samples of the same size from a population,
the 95% is the percentage of those samples for which the confidence interval includes the
population parameter.
