A researcher wants to test the hypothesis that alcohol reduces driver's reaction time. On a closed driving course, the researcher studies 50 drivers with alcohol in their system and 50 drivers with no alcohol in their system, while measuring reaction time in milliseconds. The average reaction time for drivers with alcohol in their system was 142 milliseconds with a standard deviation of 7.45. The average reaction time with no alcohol in their system was 134 milliseconds with a standard deviation of 6.81.

What is the null hypothesis? (pay attention to the scenario)

Having alcohol in their system will not cause drivers to have a slower reaction time
than those with no alcohol in their system. Or µ drivers with alcohol in their system
? µ drivers with no alcohol in their system

Are your results significant, and if so, at what level?

Yes, at the .0005 level. (5.548 > 3.460, the intersection of 60 df and .0005 in Table
C)

Liver spots have nothing whatsoever to do with the liver. They are a type of freckles commonly seen in older adults who have been out in the sun without sufficient sunscreen.

Did you know?

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Addicts to opiates often avoid treatment because they are afraid of withdrawal. Though unpleasant, with proper management, withdrawal is rarely fatal and passes relatively quickly.
