A study is conducted to see how effective aspirin is in reducing temperature in children. A sample of 6 children suffering from influenza had their temperatures taken immediately before and 1 hour after administration of aspirin. The results are given below. We would like to conduct a paired differences t-test for this situation. The data follows: Patient Temperature Before Temperature After Difference
1 103.7 102.6 1.1
2 103.7 102.7 1
3 100.7 98.8 1.9
4 102.7 103.5 -0.8
5 102.7 101.3 1.4
6 100.7 99.4 1.3
Mean 102.4 101.4 1
Std. Dev. 1.4 1.9 0.9

Required:
Calculate the appropriate test statistic of a matched pairs t-test for this data to see if taking aspirin will reduce a child's fever.

Then t(s) is in the rejection region for H₀  we reject H₀  and conclude that the aspirin will reduce a child´s fever

Step-by-step explanation:

Tem.Before    Tem.After       diff.      

103.7                   102.6            1.1

103.7                   102.7             1

100.7                     98.8             1.9

102.7                    103.5            -0.8

100.7                      99.4             1.3

102.4                      101.41           (Mean)

1.4                             1.9              0.9       Std. Dev.

n =  6

df  =  6  -  1  =  5

CI we propose to be 95 %

Then  α  = 5 %  α = 0.05    

The test is a one-tail test ( we want to know if taking aspirin will reduce a child´s fever

Hypothesis test

Null Hypothesis                      H₀         μd  = 0

Alternative Hypothesis          Hₐ         μd > 0

(NOTE:)   μd (average) = Temp Before  -  Temp. after

Therefore if   μd >  0   means that there is a statistical difference between values before ( bigger ) and after  or that the aspirin will reduce a child´s fever

To find t(c)  from t-student table  df = 5  and α = 0.05

t(c)  =  2.015

To compute  t(s)

t(s)  =  μd/ sd/√n      t(s)  =  0.98/ 0.9/√6

t(s)  =  2.66

Comparing  t(s) and  t(c)

t(s) > t(c)    

Then t(s) is in the rejection region for H₀  we reject H₀  and conclude that the aspirin will reduce a child´s fever

this is a very good question

step-by-step explanation:

i got a hair cut today from my mom not to flex just to flex kim jon un is one rad fellow i'd say you'd need to take the hairline in kinda like a box shape like someone rammed a lego brick into your head. from there you really need to take the top up keeping with that boxy aesthetic, finally coat the whole thing with gel if your country economics are failing or whatever you can just coat it with the starving children's food rations. about 5 orphans per strand is a good ratio. good luck with the fresh cut my dude

what is the original number? you forgot to add it.
