Instructions -FULL INSTRUCTION ATTACHED
To meet your senior leaders’ request, you will prepare a 10- to 12-page summary brief. A summary brief is a common document in management that is used to summarize concepts, issues, products, or projects. Summary briefs often vary in format. For academic purposes, the required format for this summary brief is current APA format, a common format for health care research and academics. Consult these resources for additional guidance on the appropriate use of APA guidelines:

Evidence and APA—This is a tutorial on the current APA style.
APA 7th Edition Example Paper [PDF]—This is an example to help you make sure your summary brief conforms to APA formatting guidelines.
Use the following headings to organize your summary brief for leadership:

Using Two-Sample Hypothesis

In this assignment, you will simply be working through a few examples of hypothesis testing with two samples and determining whether the results are statistically significant using Excel. In some problems, you will be provided the data set, and in others, you will just be given the sample statistics.

You will submit a single Excel file that includes your results for all of the exercises. For each exercise, please include the output from XLMiner or one of the online calculator tools, and make sure that you clearly include the following information:

  1. Null and alternative hypotheses (don’t forget that sometimes you’ll use pand sometimes μ)
  2. The values of any sample means, proportions, and standard deviations
  3. Which test you use and why. Here are the options:
    1. t-Test: Paired Two-Sample for Means
    2. t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Equal Variances
    3. t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Unequal Variances
    4. z-Test: Two-Sample for Proportions
  4. The resulting p-value
  5. Whether or not you reject the null hypothesis
