1. Ho µ = .618 Hi µ ≠ .618 To validate whether the ratio of the short side to the long side of a rectangle is about .618 is cultural bias or human bias, I did statistic descriptive statistics to obtain the mean and standard deviation, this provided me additional information on the raw data. Then I completed a one sample t test for hypothesis of the mean using a two tail test since I am only trying to prove that they are not equal, to see if I needed to reject or accept my null hypothesis. Since the t test statistic is 2.05 and this falls between my upper and lower critical values I accept the null hypothesis that H0 = .618. I did not choose to do a one tail test (upper or lower) because it does not fit with my alternate hypothesis. 2. Ho µ = the mean of the relative rate of admission are equal Hi µ ≠ the mean of the relative rate of admission are not equal At first glance I would say that there is not statistical relevance to behavioral affects caused by lunar phases. However, I ran descriptive statistics on during full and not full. The descriptive statistics on both shows that the mean and median are relatively the same. Therefore, I conclude they are normal. Then I ran a F test for the differences in two variances to see if the variances were significantly different and to see if I could do a t test.
