2. The quality control manager of Marilyn’s Cookies is inspecting a batch of chocolate-chip cookies that has just been baked. If the production process is in control, the mean number of chocolate-chip parts per cookie is 6.0. What is the probability that in any particular cookie being inspected 1) fewer than five chocolate-chip parts will be found? 2) exactly five chocolate-chip parts will be found? 3) five or more chocolate-chip parts will be found?

2. A political scientist developed a test designed to measure the degree of awareness of current events. She wants to estimate the average score that would be achieved on this test by all students in a certain high school. The administration at the school will not allow the experimenter to randomly select students out of classes in session, but it will allow her to interrupt a small number of classes for the purpose of giving the test to every member of the class. Thus, the experimenter selects 25 classes at random from the 108 classes in session at a particular hour. The test is given to each member of the sampled classes, with results as shown in the accompanying table. Number of students, mi Total score, yi Class 1 31 1590 2 29 1510 3 25 1490 4 35 1610 5 15 800 6 31 1720

1. A dog groomer is often asked if small dogs bark more than larger dogs. To test this, he logs the number of separate barking episodes per day for three size dogs: small, medium, and large. In a separate file you will find the number of barking episodes for 12 dogs. On average, small dogs barked the most Mean: 7.25 On average, medium sized dogs barked the least Mean: 2.75 A. Do the different size dogs bark a significantly different number of times? Test with an α = 0.05. B. If appropriate, use Tukey’s HSD post hoc test and report where the differences are. If inappropriate, state why. C. Calculate and interpret the effect size.
