Chapter 10: Comparing Two Groups Bivariate Analysis: Methods for comparing two groups are special cases of bivariate statistical methods – Two variables exist: Response variable – outcome variable on which comparisons are made Explanatory variable – binary variable that specifies the groups Statistical methods analyze how the outcome on the response variable depends on or is explained by the value of the explanatory variable Independent Samples: Most comparisons of groups use independent samples

parameter values involved in a t-test. The t-test is more sensitive to minor differences between sample and population. With the t-test one can be confident of the normality of the data. The t-test requires no parameter standard error of the mean. Points Received: 0 of 1 Comments: Question 2.

BSuppose that 5000 sales invoices are separated into four strata. Stratum 1 contains 50 invoices, stratum 2 contains 500 invoices, stratum 3 contains 1000 invoices, and stratum 4 contains 3450 invoices. A sample of 500 sales invoices is needed. a) what type of sampling should you do? why? A stratified random sampling is suitable for this study. This is because the population of invoices is heterogenous which results in increase in the variance of the estimators. When the population is divided

Tests of Hypotheses: z-test and t-test 0801-HypothesisTests.doc Page 1 of 4 NOTES TESTS OF HYPOTHESES As was mentioned earlier, sometimes we cannot survey or test all persons or objects; therefore, we have to take a sample. From the results of analysis from the sample data, we can predict the results from the population. Some questions that one may want to answer are 1. Are unmarried workers more likely to be absent from work than married workers? 2. Are the sixth graders in a certain school
