1. The State Court Administrator for the State of Oregon has commissioned a study of two circuit court jurisdictions within the State to examine the effect of administrative rule differences upon litigation processing time. The two jurisdictions of interest are Coos County and Lane County. Samples of ten cases and seven cases, respectively, were selected at random from the Coos County and Lane County court dockets. Files from each of the sampled cases were examined to determine the total elapsed time required for processing each case, from filing to completion. The processing time for each of the sampled cases is given below. Coos County Lane County Case 1234567899 10 Mean Std. Dev. Processing Time (Days) 48 97 103 117 145 151 179 220 257 294 161.1 76.9 Case 1234567 Mean Std. Dev. Processing Time (Days) 109 145 196 273 289 417 505 276.3 143.7 a. (Single-Sample Estimation) Estimate the mean case processing time for Lane County and develop a corresponding 90% confidence interval.

A state fisheries commission wants to estimate the number of bass caught in a given lake during a season in order to restock the lake with the appropriate number of young fish. The commission could get a fairly accurate assessment of the seasonal catch by extensive “netting sweeps" of the lake before and after a season, but this technique is much too expensive to be done routinely. Therefore, the commission samples a number of lakes and record the seasonal catch (thousands of bass per square mile of lake area) and size of lake (square miles). A simple linear regression was performed and the following R output obtained. Estimate Std.

In a current study, a random sample of 20 teachers from Georgia and an independent random sample of 20 teachers from Indiana have been asked to report their annual income. The data obtained are as follows.

California insurance companies wanted to study factors (e.g., the proximity to a major earthquake fault line) that may influence homeowners’ decisions to purchase earthquake insurance. Surveys were mailed to randomly selected households in three California counties to investigate the possible proximity effect. The data collected are shown below: Los Angeles San Bernardino Santa Clara sample size 1,000 1,400 1,200 Number with 377 469 390 earthquake insurance Los Angeles County is located closest among the three to a major earthquake fault line. Are homeowners in Los Angeles County more likely to purchase earthquake insurance than those in San Bernardino County? Test using α = 0.05. (Optional) Are homeowners in Los Angeles County more likely to purchase earthquake insurance than those in Santa Clara County? Use α = 0.05.
The table below shows the auto insurance quotes for two leading companies for a sample of 15 families. Assume the populations SDs are similar, but unknown. The President of the American Insurance Institute wants to compare the yearly costs of such insurance offered by the two companies. At the 0.10 level of significance, can we conclude that there is a difference in the amounts quoted?

In one particular rainforest in Tasmania, it has been found that 70% of the trees are eucalyptus trees; 20% of the trees are Australian blackwood trees and 10% of the trees are myrtle beech trees. Unfortunately, this rainforest has recently been affected by bushfires; and we are interested in determining whether or not the above percentage distribution of trees has been affected by these bushfires. When the number of trees remaining were counted after several had been burnt down by the bushfires, it was found that there were a total of 500 trees left. Of these, 320 were eucalyptus trees; 120 were Australian blackwood trees and 60 were myrtle beech trees. A scientist would like to know if there is evidence of a significant change in the percentage distribution of trees aş a result of these unfortunate bushfires. (i) Use statistical notation to state the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. (ii) Calculate the chi-squared test statistic for these data. (ii1) Given a p-value of 0.038…
