Scientists interested in the effect of exercise on the duration of sleep conducted the following study: 180180180 overweight men were randomly assigned to two groups. One group was instructed to perform aerobic exercise for about an hour per day, and the other group was instructed to continue with their exercise-less routine.
The sleep duration of each subject was measured at two points: before the randomization and 101010 weeks after it. Then, the scientists calculated the change in sleep duration for each subject, where a positive value means the duration increased, and a negative value means it decreased.
What type of a statistical study did the scientists use?
Choose 1

(Choice A)
A
Sample study
(Choice B)
B
Experiment
(Choice C)
C
Observational study
The scientists found that the mean change in sleep duration of the group who exercised is 656565 minutes greater than the mean change of the group who didnât. Based on some re-randomization simulations, they concluded that the result is significant and not due to the randomization of the groups.
What valid conclusion can be made from this result?

(Choice A)
A
The result suggests a positive correlation between daily exercise and sleep duration among overweight men.
(Choice B)
B
The result suggests that people who exercise daily sleep better than people who donât.
(Choice C)
C
The results suggest that adopting an exercise regime may increase sleep duration among overweight men.
(Choice D)
D
The result suggests a positive correlation between daily exercise and sleep duration.

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), a subject is told that cards only the experimenter can see contain either a star, a circle, a wave, or a square. as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. a subject who is just guessing has probability 0.25 of guessing correctly on each card. a. the count of correct guesses in 20 cards has a binomial distribution. what are n and p? b. what is the mean number of correct guesses in 20 cards for subjects who are just guessing? c. what is the probability of exactly 5 correct guesses in 20 cards if a subject is just guessing?
