Statistical Analysis Tests Summary

This document contains summaries of several statistical tests run on different datasets: 1) An independent t-test found a significant difference in mean displacement between cars with 4 and 6 cylinders. 2) A one-way ANOVA test found no significant difference in opinions of a reasonable monthly water bill based on respondents' age. 3) A linear regression test found a weak positive relationship between total chlorine and chloroform content in water. 4) A paired t-test found a significant difference between free chlorine and total chlorine levels in water samples. 5) A one-sample t-test revealed a significant deviation from the standard 140mm pipe diameter.

INDEPENDENT T-TEST FOR CAR DATA

This test is checking if the number of cylinders in the car affects the displacement. This test
specifically focuses on cars with 6 and 4 cylinders.

The significance is 0.025 which is less than 0.05, so the null hypothesis is rejected because there
is a significant difference between the mean displacements for cars with 4 and 6 cylinders.

ONE WAY ANOVA TEST

The test is checking if the age of the respondents affects their opinion of a reasonable monthly
water bill.

The significance is 0.073. This is greater than 0.05, so there is no significant difference in the
opinions a reasonable monthly water bill, so the null hypothesis is accepted.

LINEAR REGRESSION TEST

This test is checking if the total chlorine in water is dependent on the chloroform content in the
water.

The correlation coefficient is 0.257, showing there is a weak positive linear relationship between
the total chlorine and the amount of chloroform in the water.

R2 is 0.066, which shows the data is not very close to its fitted regression line.

PAIRED SAMPLES T-TEST

This test checks if there is a significant difference between the amount of free chlorine in the
water and the total amount of chlorine in the water.

The significance is 0.006, less than 0.05. This shows that there is a significant difference
between the amount of free chlorine in the water and the amount of total chlorine.
