10.49  In 2009 Noodles & Company introduced spaghetti and meatballs to their menu. Before putting on the menu they performed taste tests to determine the best tasting spaghetti sauce. Random sam- ples of 70 tasters were asked to rate their satisfaction with two different sauces on a scale of 1–10 with 10 being the highest. Was there a significant difference in satisfaction scores between the two sauces? (a) Perform a two-tailed test for the difference in two independent means using the sum- mary data in the table below. Assume equal population variances and state your conclusion using α = .05. (b) What if Noodles & Company had used only one set of tasters to test the sauces? Perform a two-tailed paired difference test using the data in the file Spaghetti.xls. State your con- clusion using α = .05. (c) Compare the results in parts (a) and (b). Which test had lower power?
