Do college students enjoy playing sports more than watching sports A researcher randomly selected ten college students and asked them to rate playing sports and watching sports on a scale from 1 to 10 with 1 meaning they have no interest and 10 meaning they absolutely love it The results of the study are shown below Playing Vs Watching Sports Play 3 1 2 1 8 29 2 29 Watch 1 2 1 1 9 1 10 1 2 7 Assume a Normal distribution What can be concluded at the the a 0 10 level of significance level of significance For this study we should use Select an answer a The null and alternative hypotheses would be Ho Select an answer H Select an answer Select an answer Select an answer b The test statistic c The p value d The p value is a e Based on this we should f Thus the final conclusion is that Select an answer Select an answer please enter a decimal Please enter a decimal please show your answer to 3 decimal places Please show your answer to 4 decimal places Select an answer the null hypothesis The results are statistically significant at a 0 10 so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the ten students that were surveyed rated playing sports higher than watching sports on average The results are statistically significant at a 0 10 so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean rating for playing sports is greater than the population mean rating for watching sports The results are statistically insignificant at a 0 10 so there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean rating for playing sports is greater than the population mean rating for watching sports The results are statistically insignificant at a 0 10 so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the population mean rating for playing sports is equal to the population mean rating for watching sports
