Q:

I need some help with making a distribution plot and a scatter plot. Does anyone know how to help me out with these. I am trying to use Excel to make them and I really have tried several times, but they are really complicated!

I have some plots that I have figured out on my own, but I just need help trying to plot them using Excel. Can anyone show me how?

 

2)      Determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution.

a.       Estimated population variances based on each sample.

Experimental Group

Control Group

 

N1 = 20

N2 = 30

 

df1 = 19

df2 = 29

 

M1 = 38

S12 = 3

M2 = 35

S22 = 5

 

<!--filtered-->

S21 = 3  Estimated population variance for Experimental Group

S22 = 5  Estimated population variance for Control Group

b.      4.2083333 Pooled Estimate of Population Variance

 S2p = (df1)(S12) + (df2)(S22)/n1 + n2 – 2 = (19)(3) + (29)(5)/20 + 30 – 2 = 57+145/48 = 4.2083333

c. S2P/N1 = 4.2083/20 = 0.21041667 Variance of Distribution Mean for Experimental Group

S2P/N2 = 0.140278 Variance of Distribution Mean for Control Group

d.       S2DIFF = 0.350695  Variance of Distribution of Difference Between Means

e.       SDIFF = 0.5921946 Standard Deviation of Distribution of Difference Between Means

 

3)      dfTOTAL = 19 + 29 = 48  and given in problem: sig. level = .05 and assuming two-tailed test

cutoff sample score (using Table A-2 on page 671) will be between

2.009 (df50)  AND  2.014 (df45)

 

4)   sample's score on comparison distribution

t = (M1 – M2) / SDIFF = 38-35/0.5921946    t = 5.0659

 

5)      Conclusion:

Since t score of 5.06 is larger than cutoff t score of 2.009, we can reject the null hypothesis. The experimental group's knowledge has increased as a result of the instructional program
