ComparingTwoMeans_Overview

Comparing Two Means

Students test hypotheses concerning means of two populations by calculating the test statistic and the critical values and graphing the critical region.

Candy Pieces

Students use a chi-square test for goodness-of-fit to determine if there is a significant difference between the proportions they find in the sample, and the proportions they would expect if the manufacturer produced equal proportions of each color.

Claims About Two Proportions

Students test claims about two proportions by calculating test statistics, critical values, and P-values, for both one-tailed and two-tailed tests.

Hypothesis Testing: Means

Students test a claim about a mean with a large sample size at the five-percent significance level. The test statistic is found and compared to the critical value.

Inference for Two-way Tables

Students use the chi-square test to analyze whether two categorical variables are independent or dependent calculating expected frequencies, the test statistic and the critical values.

What! A Mistake!

Students learn about Type I and Type II errors. Then, for a given scenario, they calculate the probabilities of errors and the power of the test.
