    Question

    An oil company claims that it has a gasoline additive that makes cars drive more economically. To prove this, it has a sample of 9 cars drive the same 1000 kilometer route twice; once without additive (Condition I) and once with additive (Condition II). The average gasoline consumption (in liters) and the corresponding squared sums are given in the table below. Based on a one-way test with α=.05\alpha=.05 conclude that cars with the addition drive more economically?


    1. TRUE: Yes, because sMD=0.67s_{M_D} = 0.67 gives a tt-value of 6.006.00.
    2. FALSE: Ja, want sMD=0.63s_{M_D} = 0.63 gives a tt-value of 6.366.36.
    3. FALSE: Nee, want s(M1M2)=3.99s_{(M_1-M_2)} = 3.99 gives a tt-value of 1.001.00.
    4. FALSE: Nee, want s(M1M2)=3.77s_{(M_1-M_2)} = 3.77 gives a tt-value of 1.061.06.
