Many runners believe that listening to music while running enhances their performance. The authors of a paper wondered if this is true for experienced runners. They recorded time to exhaustion for 11 triathletes while running on a treadmill at a speed determined to be near their peak running velocity. The time to exhaustion was recorded for each participant on two different days. On one day, each participant ran while listening to music that the runner selected as motivational. On a different day, each participant ran with no music playing. For purposes of this exercise, assume that it is reasonable to regard these 11 triathletes as representative of the population of experienced triathletes. Only summary quantities were given in the paper, but the data in the table below are consistent with the means and standard deviations given in the paper.

The authors of a paper compared two different methods for measuring body fat percentage. One method uses ultrasound, and the other method uses X-ray technology. The table gives body fat percentages for 16 athletes using each of these methods (a subset of the data given in a graph that appeared in the paper). For purposes of this exercise, you can assume that the 16 athletes who participated in this study are representative of the population of athletes. Athlete 1 X-ray 5.00 Ultrasound 4.75 4.00 2 7.00 3 9.25 9.00 12.00 4 5 17.25 29.50 11.50 17.00 27.75 6.50 6 7 5.25 6.00 8 9 6.75 8.75 8.25 10 8.50 9.25 11 9.50 12 9.25 11.00 12.00 11.75 13 14 14.00 12.25 15.50 18.00 18.50 15 17.00 18.00 16 1 USE SALT Do these data provide convincing evidence that the mean body fat percentage measurement differs for the two methods?

In a study of memory recall, 8 students from a large psychology class were selected at random and given 10 minutes to memorize a list of 20 nonsensical words. Each was asked to list as many of the words as he or she could remember both 1 hour and 24 hours later. The data are as shown in the accompanying table. Student 1 hour later 16 12 199 13 1017 17 24 hours later 11 البا 3 14710 6 12 13 USE SALT Use these data to estimate the difference in mean number of words remembered after 1 hour and after 24 hours. Use a 90% confidence interval. (Use ud = 41 hour later - #24 hours later. Use a table or SALT. Round your answers to two decimal places.) words
