A geologist is making repeated measurements (in grams) on the mass of a rock. It is not known whether the measurements are a random sample from an approximately normal population. Below are three sets of replicate measurements, listed in the order they were made. For each set of readings, state whether the assumptions necessary for the validdity of the t-test appear to be met. If the assumptions are not met, explain why? a. 213.03 212.95 213.04 213.00 212.99 213.01 221.03 213.05
b. 213.05 213.00 212.94 213.09 212.98 213.02 213.06 212.99
c. 212.92 212.95 212.97 213.00 213.01 213.04 213.05 213.06

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective of this question is to known whether the assumptions of the known data set follows normal distribution or not and if it is appropriate to use t-test or not.

TO solve this question ; we construct a box plot for the known data set by using a MINITAB software

The process is as follows to guide you:

Enter your data in the worksheet

Then select Graph→ Boxplot→ EDA→ Boxplot

Under One Y , select simple, Then click OK

In Variables , enter measurements. Then click OK

So; for the first data set (a)  213.03 212.95 213.04 213.00 212.99 213.01 221.03 213.05  as shown in the attached file  in word document for the  boxplot below;

We will observe that there is a outliner present in the data set and the measurement do not meet the normal assumption ; as a result to that ; the t-distribution is not appropriate for this data.

(b) From the document attached below; we will realize and observe that the boxplot doesn't contains an outliner. Also; it is clear and obvious that the shape of the distribution is right skewed. The measurement thus did not meet the assumptions and as a result t- distribution is not appropriate for this data.

(c)

From the document attached below; we will realize and observe that the boxplot doesn't contains an outliner. Also; it is clear and obvious that the shape of the distribution is left skewed. The measurement thus did not meet the assumptions and as a result t- distribution is not appropriate for this data.

the answer is (4,3)

since the rule for r0, 90º is (-y,x) and it was already applied to form the image, all you have to do is reverse the answer using this formula.

is means division by fractions
