    • A COMAHS study on the effect of Nescafe and Moringa on energy-yielding in the body used eighteen male volunteers. Nine of the men took pure Nescafe drink while the rest were given Moringa drink. All were asked to do exercise thereafter each volunteer had their respiratory exchange ratio (RER) measured. RER is an indicator of how much energy is produced from food or drink intake.

  • 1a) Do you think Nescafe produced more energy than Moringa? 1b) Justify with reasons what type of Test statistics you are going to use for this problem 1c) State your hypothesis? 1d) If your t(critical) = 2.10, using ANY of the formulas below determine whether Nescafe is a better source of body energy than Moringa.

• 2) Past results show the average annual cases of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) death at Ola During Hospital was 100 pregnant women. Ola During Hospital was provided with a trial drug of Oxytocin by the World Health Organisation to be used to prevent PPH. After one year of the trial from a sample of 600 maternal PPH cases treated with the trial Oxytocin drug on the average 130 cases (standard deviation = 15 cases) were recorded.
• 2a) Do you think the trial Oxytocin drug was more effective in preventing PPH?
• 2b) Justify with reasons what type of Test statistics you are going to use for this problem
• 2c) State your hypothesis?
• 2d) If your t(critical) = 1.7 using the formula below determine whether the trial Oxytocin drug is effective in treating PPH.

• 3) Past sales data indicate that the average weekly sale of drugs in a pharmacy was $100. After training of sales personnel, sales data (taken from a sample of 25 salesmen) indicates an average sale of $130, with a standard deviation of $15. Did the training work? Test your hypothesis at a 5% alpha level.

• 4) 256 postgraduate students at NU were surveyed to find out their various disciplines of study. The results were: MPH (29), Agric Engineering (24), Soil Science (22), Biology (19), EMQC (21), Social works (18), Education (19), Linguistics (20), Maths (23), Physical education (18), Physics (20), Sociology (23). Test the hypothesis that various disciplines of study are evenly distributed across the postgrdaduate students.
