A technical engineer is interested in understanding the batterylife of two different laptops for student usage at a communitycollege in California. The two models he has are Madroid andKrapple. He randomly assigned students to one of the laptop modelsand recorded the number of minutes the students were able to usethe computer until the battery ran out. Below is the datacollected.
Student # | Madroid | Krapple |
1 | 540 | 575 |
2 | 380 | 525 |
3 | 420 | 583 |
4 | 480 | 680 |
5 | 530 | 628 |
6 | 467 | 680 |
7 | 465 | 640 |
8 | 498 | 630 |
9 | 482 | 725 |
10 | 309 | 780 |
11 | 609 | 530 |
12 | 504 | 280 |
13 | 590 | 350 |
14 | 403 | 376 |
15 | 602 | 540 |
Does the technical engineer have statistically significantevidence to present to the university budget committee to purchaseKrapple because it has, on average, a longer battery life?
