Comparing Two Independent Population Proportions · Exercise 19
DIRECTIONS: For each of the word problems, use a solution sheet to do the hypothesis test. The solution sheet is found in Appendix E. Please feel free to make copies of the solution sheets. For the online version of the book, it is suggested that you copy the.doc or the.pdf files.
Elizabeth Mjelde, an art history professor, was interested in whether the value from the Golden Ratio formula, , was the same in the Whitney Exhibit for works from 1900 to 1919 as for works from 1920 to 1942. Thirty-seven early works were sampled, averaging 1.74 with a standard deviation of 0.11. Sixty-five of the later works were sampled, averaging 1.746 with a standard deviation of 0.1064. Do you think that there is a significant difference in the Golden Ratio calculation?
This exercise builds on another exercise in its source book, which isn't shown here.
