An NHL executive says that players who incur penalty time during a game have a median time of 1.2 minutes in the penalty box. A random sample of 28 hockey players with penalty time produced 24 non-zero differences when a Wilcoxon signed rank test was used. The W (R+) equaled 156.5 . The alternate hypothesis is m  1.2 minutes. Assume the population is symmetrically distributed. The computed test statistic in this instance equals:
 a. 156.5.
  b. 0.186.
  c. 6.5.
  d. 35.
  e. 143.5.

Question 2

  b. continuous with either interval or ratio measurement scale.
  c. discrete with either nominal or ordinal measurement scale.
  d. discrete with either interval or ratio measurement scale.
