For the following question(s): A school counselor tests the level of depression in fourth graders in a particular class of 20 students. The counselor wants to know whether the kind of students in this class differs from that of fourth graders in general at her school. On the test, a score of 10 indicates severe depression, while a score of 0 indicates no depression. From reports, she is able to find out about past testing. Fourth graders at her school usually score 5 on the scale, but the variation is not known. Her sample of 20 fifth graders has a mean depression score of 4.4. Use the .01 level of significance. 1. The counselor calculates the unbiased estimate of the population’s variance to be 15. What is the variance of the distribution of means? A) 15/20 = 0.75 B) 15/19 = 0.79 C) 15 2 /20 = 11.25 D) 15 2 /19 = 11.84 2. Suppose the counselor tested the null hypothesis that fourth graders in this class were less depressed than those at the school generally. She figures her t score to be - .20. What decision should she make regarding the null hypothesis? A) Reject it B) Fail to reject it C) Postpone any decisions until a more conclusive study could be conducted D) There is not enough information given to make a decision 3. Suppose the standard deviation she figures (the square root of the unbiased estimate of the population variance) is .85. What is the effect size? A) 5/.85 = 5.88 B) .85/5 = .17 C) (5 - 4.4)/.85 = .71 D) .85/(5 - 4.4) = 1.42 For the following question(s): Professor Juarez thinks the students in her statistics class this term are more creative than most students at this university. A previous study found that students at this university had a mean score of 35 on a standard creativity test. Professor Juarez finds that her class scores an average of 40 on this scale, with an estimated population standard deviation of 7. The standard deviation of the distribution of means comes out to 1.63. 4. What is the t score? A) (40 - 35)/7 = .71 B) (40 - 35)/1.63 = 3.07 C) (40 - 35)/7 2 = 5/49 = .10 D) (40 - 35)/1.63 2 = 5/2.66 = 1.88 5. What effect size did Professor Juarez find? A) (40 - 35)/7 = .71 B) (40 - 35)/1.63 = 3.07 C) (40 - 35)/7 2 = 5/49 = .10 D) (40 - 35)/1.63 2 = 5/2.66 = 1.88 6. If Professor Juarez had 30 students in her class, and she wanted to test her hypothesis using the 5% level of significance, what cutoff t score would she use? (You should be able to figure this out without a table because only one answer is in the correct region.) A) 304.11 B) 1.699.

Your responses should be well-rounded and analytical, and should not just provide a conclusion or an opinion without explaining the reason for the choice. It is important that you incorporate the question into your response (i.e., restate the question in your introduction) and explain the legal principle(s) or concept(s) from the text that underlies your judgment. For each question, you should provide at least one reference in APA format (in-text citations and references as described in detail in the Syllabus). Each answer should be double spaced in 12-point font, and your response to each question should be between 300 and 1,000 words in length. 16.1 Specific Performance The California and Hawaiian Sugar Company (C&H), a California corporation, is an agricultural cooperative owned by 14 sugar plantations in Hawaii. It transports raw sugar to its refinery in Crockett, California. Sugar is a seasonal crop, with about 70 percent of the harvest occurring between April and October. C&H requires reliable seasonal shipping of the raw sugar from Hawaii to California. Sugar stored on the ground or left unharvested suffers a loss of sucrose and goes to waste. After C&H was notified by its normal shipper that it would be withdrawing its services at a specified date in the future, C&H commissioned the design of a large hybrid vessel—a tug of a catamaran design consisting of a barge attached to the tug. After substantial negotiation, C&H contracted with Sun Ship, Inc. (Sun Ship), a Pennsylvania corporation, to build the vessel for $25,405,000. The contract gave Sun Ship one and three quarter years to build and deliver the ship to C&H. The contract also contained a liquidated damages clause calling for a payment of $17,000 per day for each day that the vessel was not delivered to C&H after the agreed-upon delivery date. Sun Ship did not complete the vessel until eight and one-half months after the agreed-upon delivery date. Upon delivery, the vessel was commissioned and christened the Moku Pahu . During the season that the boat had not been delivered, C&H was able to find other means of shipping the crop from Hawaii to its California refinery. Evidence established that actual damages suffered by C&H because of the nonavailability of the vessel from Sun Ship were $368,000. When Sun Ship refused to pay the liquidated damages, C&H filed suit to require payment of $4,413,000 in liquidated damages under the contract. Can C&H recover the liquidated damages from Sun Ship?
