Citrus Rental is a popular car rental agency that has a history of having too few cars available, so that its available cars are overdriven. The mean monthly mileage over the years for Citrus cars has been about 1550 miles per month. Recently, though, Citrus purchased thousands of new cars, and the company claims that the average mileage of its cars is now less than in the past. To test this, a random sample of 19 recent mileages of Citrus cars was taken. The mean of these 19 mileages was 1532 miles per month, and the standard deviation was 208 miles per month. Assume that the population of recent monthly mileages of Citrus cars is normally distributed. At the 0.1 level of significance, can it be concluded that the mean recent monthly mileage, μ , of Citrus cars is less than 1550 miles per month? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as…

Recently, though, Citrus purchased thousands of new cars, and the company claims that the average mileage of its cars is now less than in the past. To test this, a random sample of 15 recent mileages of Citrus cars was taken. The mean of these 15 mileages was 1517 miles per month, and the standard deviation was 201 miles per month. Assume that the population of recent monthly mileages of Citrus cars is normally distributed. At the 0.05 level of significance, can it be concluded that the mean recent monthly mileage, μ, of Citrus cars is less than 1550 miles per month? Perform a one-tailed test.

A new screening test for Lyme disease is developed for use in the general population. The sensitivity and specificity of the new test are 60% and 70%, respectively. Five hundred people are screened at a clinic during the first year the new test is implemented. Assume the true prevalence of Lyme disease among clinic attendees is 10%. Calculate the predictive value of a positive test.
Fifteen years ago, a complete survey of all undergraduate students at a large University indicated that the average student smoked 7.7 cigarettes per day. Th director of the student health center wishes to determine whether the incidence of cigarette smoking at his University has lessened over the fifteen year period. He obtains the following results (in cigarettes smoked per day) from a random sample of 9 students. 6.1, 9.2, 5, 6.3, 4.8, 3.2, 7.6, 8.1, 9. Test the null hypothesis at the .05 level significane.

Citrus Rental is a popular car rental agency that has a history of having too few cars available, so that its available cars are overdriven. The mean monthly mileage over the years for Citrus cars has been about 1600 miles per month. Recently, though, Citrus purchased thousands of new cars, and the company claims that the average mileage of its cars is now less than in the past. To test this, a random sample of 16 recent mileages of Citrus cars was taken. The mean of these 16 mileages was 1517 miles per month, and the standard deviation was 233 miles per month. Assume that the population of recent monthly mileages of Citrus cars is normally distributed. At the 0.05 level of significance, can it be concluded that the mean recent monthly mileage, μ, of Citrus cars is less than 1600 miles per month? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. (If necessary,…
A new drug to treat psoriasis has been developed and is in clinical testing. Assume that those individuals given the drug are examined before receiving the treatment and then again after receiving the treatment to determine if there was a change in their symptom status. If the initial results showed that 2.0% of individuals entered the study in remission, 77.0% of individuals entered the study with mild symptoms, 16.0% of individuals entered the study with moderate symptoms, and 5.0% entered the study with severe symptoms calculate and interpret a chi-squared test to determine if the drug was effective treating psoriasis given the information below from the final examination. A. We reject H0 because 6628.08 is greater than 11.07. We have statistically significant evidence at the alpha equals .05 level to show that the distribution of the severity of psoriasis cases at the end of the clinical trial for the sample is different from the distribution of the severity of psoriasis…

When only two treatments are involved, ANOVA and the Student’s t-test (Chapter 11) result in the same conclusions. Also, for computed test statistics, t2 = F. To demonstrate this relationship, use the following example. Fourteen randomly selected students enrolled in a history course were divided into two groups, one consisting of six students who took the course in the normal lecture format. The other group of eight students took the course in a distance format. At the end of the course, each group was examined with a 50-item test. The following is a list of the number correct for each of the two groups. Traditional Lecture Distance 36 45 31 35 40 45 34 35 33 45 38 36 43 41 a-1. Complete the ANOVA table.
