Question:

Reconsider the previous exercise.
a. Give detailed, step-by-step instructions on how one could conduct a tactile simulation to generate a p-value to test the hypotheses stated in part (c). Be sure to include details  n the following:

• Would the simulation involve coins, dice, or index cards?
• How many tosses, rolls, or cards would be used?
• How many sets of tosses, rolls, or shuffles would you observe?
b. Use an appropriate applet or other technology to find a simulation-based p-value to test the hypotheses stated in the previous exercise. Report the p-value.
c. Interpret the p-value reported in part (b), being sure to explain what the number means in the context of how the simulation-based method generated this p-value.
d. Summarize your conclusion from the p-value.


Data from previous question

Student researchers investigated whether balsa wood is less elastic aft er it has been immersed in water. They took 44 pieces of balsa wood and randomly assigned half to be immersed in water and the other half not to be. They measured the elasticity by seeing how far (in inches) the piece of wood would project a dime into the air.
