thanks guy
IIlll in this problem. assume that the distribution oi differences is approximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedom if. not in the Student's t'table, use the closest d1. that is smaller. In some situations. this choice of 0'}. may increase the P-value by a small amount and therefore produce a slightly more "conservative\" answer. The western United States has a number of four-lane interstate highways that cut through long tracts of wilderness. To prevent car accidents with wild animals. the highways are bordered on both sides with 12vfootvhig1 woven wire fences. Although the fences prevent aocidents,they also disturb the winter migration pattern of many animals. To compensate for this disturbance. the highways have frequent wilderness underpasses designed for exclusive use by deer. elk. and other animals. in Colorado. there is a large group of deer that spend their summer months in a region on one side of a highway and survive the Witter moth in a lower region on the other side. To determine if the highway has disturbed deer migration to the winter feeding area. the following data were gathered on a random sample of 10 wilderness districts in the winter feeding area. Row B represents the average January deer count for a 5-year period before the highway was built. and row A represents the average January deer count for a 5year period after the highway was built. The highway department claims that the January population has not changed. Test this claim against the claim that the January population has dropped. Use a 5% level of signicance. Units used in the table are hundreds of deer. (Let d = B - A.) Isl-\"mum Ell-III\" (a) What is the level of signicance? l State the null and alternate hypotheses.
