. Consider a candy with 4 flavors; assume that you have a bag of this candy with many pieces of each. Imagine that you are on a strict diet that only allows you to eat 4 pieces of candy, and that to maximize your enjoyment of your treat, you will be eating this candy one piece at a time. Third, how many steps are there in this experiment? Note that the numbers of candy pieces may have changed from the previous question

2. The drug Ritalin is designed to stimulate the central nervous system. In a random sample of 242 boys aged ten - twelve years old, it was found that 68 of the boys were taking Ritalin. It is known that the proportion of all boys aged 13 - 15 who take Ritalin is 22%. A researcher claims that the population proportions of boys who take Ritalin aged 10 – 12 is different than boys aged 13 - 15. Can you support this claim at the 5% significance level? a. Conduct a hypothesis test to test the claim at the 5% significance level. Be sure to state you Ho and Ha, your test statistic and p-value, whether or not you reject Ho and whether you support the claim. b. Write a complete sentence describing what a Type I error is in context. c. Write a complete sentence describing what a Type II error is in context.
I am having trouble solving this problem. Can you please provide me with some help? Thank you. I appreciate it. Almonte. Inc., a maker of low-priced hair care products, claims that its hair spray lasts as long as the industry leader's higher-priced product. You take a sample of 60 applications of Almonte's hair spray and 60 applications of the leading hair spray. Results: On average, the Almonte applications held for 12.7 hours with a standard deviation of 1.4 hours. On average, the leading hair spray lasted 11.8 hours with a standard deviation of 1.8 hours. Set up a hypothesis test to test whether the difference in sample means is statistically significant. Use a significance level of 1%. Report and explain your conclusion.
Q3 A researcher wish to compare four manufacturing methods on the breaking strength of plastic. Four types of machines are used in this experiment. He believed that machines have an effect on the plastics breaking strength. However, each machine can operate only three methods during the experiments on a given day. Table Q3 shows the data of the experiment. Table Q3: Four manufacturing methods on the breaking strength of plastic Manufacturing Methods Machine 2 1 A=73 C=73 D=75 2 A=74 B=75 C=75 3 B=67 C=68 D=72 4 A=71 В-72 D=75 What is the name of the design? Write an appropriate statistical model then list the assumptions and identify the terms. (a) (b) Is this design symmetric ? Justify your answer. State if the design balance or not. Discuss how to achieve balance in this design ? Justify your answer. (c) (d) Test the hypothesis at a = 0.05 whether there is an effect of the four manufacturing methods on the breaking strength of plastics.
C1. A computer spam filter is 98% effective at sending spam emails to my junk folder, but will also incorrectly send 1% of legitimate emails to my junk folder. Suppose that 1 in 10 emails are spam. What proportion of emails in my junk folder are actually legitimate emails? Explain your solution fully - you may use any results from the lectures provided you state them clearly.
not A 1995 study by the School of Public Health reported that 87% of male students who live in a fraterity house are binge drinkers. The figure for fraternity members who are residents of a fraternity house is 71 %, while the figure for men who do not belong to a fraternity is 44 % Suppose that 11% of U.S. male students live in a fraternity house, 15% belong to a fraterity but do not live in a fraterity house, and 74% do not belong to a fraterity a. What is the probability that a randomly selected malp student is a binge drinker? b. If a randomly selected male student is a binge drinker, what is the probability that he lives in a fraterity house? The probability that a randomly selected male student is a binge drinker is 0.5509 (Type an integer or a decimal rounded to two decimal places as needed) CETTE
When looking at the data for graduate school admissions between men and women, it is shown that about 45% of men are admitted but only 38% of women. However, when the data is broken down by school it turns out that, within each school, the women are admitted at higher rates than the men. This could happen because I. The women apply in higher numbers to schools with lower acceptance rates. II. The women apply in higher numbers to schools with higher acceptance rates III. The men apply in higher numbers to schools with lower acceptance rates IV. The men apply in higher numbers to schools with higher acceptance rates
An interdepartmental task force is being formed to investigate an increase in violent crimes. 1/5 of the task force will be police officers from the local precinct. 1/4 will be ATF agents, and the remaining 22 will be from the FBI. How many people are participating in the task force?
You are interested in finding out if kangaroo rats that have been offered food ad lib(unlimited food) for the previous 24 hours store a different amount of food in their pouches than kangaroo rats that have been starved for 24 hours. You take 8 kangaroo rats and starve them for 24 hours, then offer them food and count how many seeds are stored in their pouches in the next hour. You let your rats rest for one week, and repeat the experiment with the same rats, but offer them unlimited food for the 24 hours prior to the experiment. Run the appropriate statistical test. Rat ID # Seeds (starving) 3 Seeds (ad lib) 1 10 26 2 16 23 3 15 16 4 12 17 5 21 29 6 13 21 7 12 32 8 10 18
9. After looking at this list, you are concerned that you may not be able to afford the food that you have chosen to provide enough protein for your diet. So you have decided to get the biggest bang for your buck by comparing the amount of protein for the price that you can buy the food for. The following 4 items were priced at Walmart on 1/2/2014. Also included is the serving per item and the protein for each serving for the product chosen. Make sure to show your work. Price per Protein (g) Food Item Bush Pinto Beans Jif Peanut Butter Bumblebee Canned Chicken Cherrios Cereal Price per item $0.84 $3.98 $2.38 $3.68 Servings per item 3.3 25 4 18 Protein (g) per serving 78 78 13g 3g of protein?
