Use the drop-down menu to learn about the three steps needed to complete this assignment.

Three steps to complete the assignment

Step 1: Review the Rubric

• Before you submit your work, review the rubric at the bottom of this assignment.
• Use the rubric as a checklist to determine whether you are ready to submit your work.

Step 2: First Draft

• Commit a good-faith effort to address each item in the Prompt section below.
• Please be sure to number your responses and include “white space” between problem numbers. This improves the readability and flow of your work. I cannot give feedback and grade jumbled work.
• Use either of the following options to submit your work.
  OPTION 1: You can submit a text-entry assignment (i.e. typing your answers in Canvas). To learn how to submit a text-entry assignment, use these (opens in a new tab).
  OPTION 2: You can upload your paper-and-pencil work (or the digital equivalent). To learn how to upload your paper-and-pencil work, use these (opens in a new tab). WARNING – some file types may not be visible on my end. So to learn which files you can upload, be sure to use the directions link I provided for this option.
• Not ready to submit a good-faith effort yet? Avoid frustration – use the link to the Questions, Answers, & Tips discussion board (at the bottom of this page) to post questions about this assignment (or visit the discussion board to answer your classmates’ questions). You can also contact me directly (see the homepage for my contact information).

Step 3: Optional Final Draft

• After you submit your good-faith attempt to fully respond to the questions in the Prompt section below, advance to the ANSWER(S) page.
• You can use the ANSWER(S) page to correct your work and resubmit this assignment any time before I begin grading the problems. However, to earn full credit, you are not required to submit a final draft for this assignment. But if you do submit a final draft, I will only grade it if you submitted a good-faith effort on your first draft.
• Warning – I will only grade your most recent submission. So if you choose to submit a final draft, please do not leave anything out, and please do not direct me to read an earlier submission. To maximize your score, your most recent submission (at the time I begin grading) must be complete.

Context

Gosset’s Seed Plot Data

William S. Gosset was employed by the Guinness brewing company of Dublin. Sample sizes available for experimentation in brewing were necessarily small. At that time, Gosset contacted a famous statistician Karl Pearson (1857-1936) and was told that there were no techniques for developing probability models for small data sets. Gosset studied under Pearson, and the outcome of his study was perhaps the most famous paper in statistical literature, “The Probable Error of a Mean” (1908), which introduced the T-distribution.

Since Gosset was employed by Guinness, any work he produced would be owned by Guinness, so he published under a pseudonym, “Student”; hence, the T-distribution is often referred to as Student’s T-distribution.

To illustrate his analysis, Gosset used the results of seeding 11 different plots of land with two different types of seed: regular and kiln-dried. He wanted to determine if drying seeds before planting increased plant yield. Since different plots of soil may be naturally more fertile, this confounding variable was eliminated by using the matched pairs design and planting both types of seed in all 11 plots.

The resulting data (corn yield in pounds per acre) are as follows.

Corn Yield in Pounds per Acre

Plot	Regular seed	Kiln-dried Seed
1	1903	2009
2	1935	1915
3	1910	2011
4	2496	2463
5	2108	2180
6	1961	1925
7	2060	2122
8	1444	1482
9	1612	1542
10	1316	1443
11	1511	1535

We use these data to test the hypothesis that kiln-dried seed yields more corn than regular seed.

Because of the nature of the experimental design (matched pairs), we are testing the difference in yield.

Differences in Corn Yield

Plot	Regular seed	Kiln-dried Seed	Difference
1	1903	2009	106
2	1935	1915	20
3	1910	2011	101
4	2496	2463	33
5	2108	2180	72
6	1961	1925	36
7	2060	2122	62
8	1444	1482	38
9	1612	1542	70
10	1316	1443	127
11	1511	1535	24

Note that the differences were calculated: regular kiln-dried.

Prompt

1. State the hypotheses and define the parameter.
2. Checking conditions: Since Gosset invented the T-distribution, we will assume that his sample meets the conditions and proceed with the T-test. Regardless, answer these questions to demonstrate your understanding of the conditions for use of the T-model.

   But first you will need to review the (opens in a new tab).

   1. Which graph is used to check conditions? Why?
   2. What do we look for in the graph to verify that conditions are met?
   3. What else do we need to know about the sample of seeds before using the T-test?
3. Use StatCrunch to find the T-score and the P-value. Hint: as you work through the StatCrunch directions, keep in mind that we want to calculate the differences as regular kiln-dried . So you will choose Regular seed for Sample 1 and Kiln-dried seed for Sample 2. ()
   Copy the information in the StatCrunch output window and paste it into the textbook with your response.
4. State a conclusion based on the context of this scenario.
