3. Two companies compete in the production of laser printers. The impact strength of a printer measured in foot-pounds is an important characteristic. A random sample of n = 10 gears from company 1 results in T = 290 and s1 = 12, and another random sample of n2 = 16 gears from the second company results in F2 = 321 and s2 = 22. (a) Is there evidence to support the claim that company 2 provides gears with higher mean impact strength? Use a = 0.05, and assume that both populations are normally distributed with potentially unequal variance. Report the p-value for the test you have performed. (b) Do the data support the claim that the mean impact strength of gears from company 2 is at least 25 foot-pounds higher than that of supplier 1?

. Differences of electric potential occur naturally from point to point on a body’s skin. Researchers used newts to determine if changing the electric field reduces the mean healing rate for all newts. The researchers found in a sample of 14 newts the following data results: ?̅= −5.714 with sd = 10.564. Conduct a paired t-test at α = .01 to determine if there is sufficient evidence to conclude that changing the electric field reduces the mean healing rate for all newts.

Thus, the null and alternative hypotheses are Ho: mu = 8,700 Ha: mu is not = to 8,700 You set out to conduct a hypothesis test at the 95% level. Mean yields are distributed Normally. You take a sample of 100 different acres. From this sample, you calculate a mean yield of 8,853 and a std deviation of 1,150. What are the bounds for the acceptance region for this hypothesis test?

A company that makes basketballs has the motto, "Our basketballs are ready to play." Therefore, it is important to the company that the basketballs are inflated with the proper amount of air when shipped. Most basketballs are inflated to 7 to 9 pounds per square inch. From a set of calibration data, X = 8.03 and R=0.57. Recently the company selected a random basketball from its production line at four different time periods over its normal production day. The results were listed in the accompanying table. Complete parts a through c. Click the icon to view the data table.

The leader of two postpartum women’s support groups is interested in the depression levels of the women in her groups. She administers the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) screening test to the members of her groups. The CES-D is a 20-question self-test that measures depressive feelings and behaviors during the previous week. The mean depression level from the screening test for the 10 women in the first group is μ₁ = 16; the mean depression level for the 14 women in the second group is μ₂ = 10. Without calculating the weighted mean for the combined group, you know that the weighted mean is:
The administrator of a school board in a large county was analyzing the average mathematics test scores in the schools under her control. She noticed that there were dramatic differences in scores among the schools. In an attempt to improve the scores of all the schools, she isolated factors that could account for the differences and were easily obtained from HR. Accordingly, she took a random sample of 40 schools across the county and for each determined: Test Score, Y: the mean test score last year at the school sampled Math Dgr, X1: the percentage of teachers in each school who have at least one university degree in math Age, X2: the mean age of the math teachers at the school sampled Income, X3: the mean annual income of the math teachers at the school sampled Conduct a simple linear regression analysis for each of the variables predicting mean test score and fill in the table below.

Gary has discovered a new painting tool to help him in his work. If he can prove to himself that the painting tool reduces the amount of time it takes to paint a room, he has decided to invest in a tool for each of his helpers as well. From records of recent painting jobs that he completed before he got the new tool, Gary collected data for a random sample of 66 medium-sized rooms. He determined that the mean amount of time that it took him to paint each room was 3.73.7 hours with a standard deviation of 0.30.3 hours. For a random sample of 88 medium-sized rooms that he painted using the new tool, he found that it took him a mean of 3.33.3 hours to paint each room with a standard deviation of 0.20.2 hours. At the 0.050.05 level, can Gary conclude that his mean time for painting a medium-sized room without using the tool was greater than his mean time when using the tool? Assume that both populations are approximately normal and that the population variances are equal. Let painting…

From records of recent painting jobs that he completed before he got the new tool, Gary collected data for a random sample of 7 medium-sized rooms. He determined that the mean amount of time that it took him to paint each room was 3.6 hours with a standard deviation of 0.2 hours. For a random sample of 6 medium-sized rooms that he painted using the new tool, he found that it took him a mean of 3.2 hours to paint each room with a standard deviation of 0.3 hours. At the 0.05 level, can Gary conclude that his meantime for painting a medium-sized room without using the tool was greater than his meantime when using the tool? Assume that both populations are approximately normal and that the population variances are equal. Let painting times without using the…
The data is presented in parallel format. Before running the ANOVA in Excel, you will need to put it into serial (column) format. You will need to create a categorical variable for the first factor (days) and for the second factor (time of day). This is a critical step.The data presented shows exam scores for students randomly assigned to the sections meeting on these days at these times of the day: Thursday Friday Morning Afternoon Morning Afternoon 70.878.15978.246.646.476.559.376.370 65.678.359.359.778.680.892.780.865.392.3 90.890.569.177.36977.558.677.877.558.6 63.372.854.254.472.166.26372.56672.2 Conduct a 2-way ANOVA.

Snow avalanches can be a real problem for travelers in the western United States and Canada. A very common type of avalanche is called the slab avalanche. These have been studied extensively by David McClung, a professor of civil engineering at the University of British Columbia. Suppose slab avalanches studied in a region of Canada had an average thickness of u = 67 cm. The ski patrol at Vail, Colorado, is studying slab avalanches in its region. A random sample of avalanches in spring gave the following thicknesses (in cm). 59 51 76 38 65 54 49 62 68 55 64 67 63 74 65 79 (i) Use a calculator with sample mean and standard deviation keys to find x and s. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) X= cm S= cm (ii) Assume the slab thickness has an approximately normal distribution. Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that the mean slab thickness in the Vail region is different from that in the region of Canada. (a) What is the level of significance?

Two suppliers manufacture a plastic gear used in a laser printer. The impact strength of these gears measured in foot-pounds is an important characteristic. A random sample of 10 gears from supplier 1 results in ₁ = 290 and s₁ = 12, and another random sample of 16 gears from the second supplier results in ₂ = 321 and s₂ = 22. Is there evidence to support the claim that supplier 2 provides gears with higher mean impact strength? Use a = 0.05, and assume that both populations are normally distributed but the variances are not equal. O a. Because -4.64 < -1.714, fail to reject the Null Hypothesis Ob.

4.105 INDEX FINGER MUSCLE FATIGUE AND PISTOL FIRING. Refer to the Human Factors (November 2019) study of the effects of finger strength and muscle fatigue on the ability to shoot a pistol, Exercise 2.80 (p. 86). Recall that muscle strength was measured (in Newtons) by the maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) of the index finger. The researchers found that when at rest, expert male shooters have a mean MVIC of 160.3 N and a standard deviation of 19.6 N. However, after repeated shooting sessions, the expert shooters have a mean MVIC of 133.5 N and a standard deviation of 19.6 N. Assume that the distribution of MVIC strength scores in both scenarios is approximately normal. a. When at rest, what is the probability that an expert shooter has an MVIC value of 120 N or less? b. After repeated shooting sessions, what is the probability that an expert shooter has an MVIC value of 120 N or less? c. What MVIC value will be exceeded by 75% of the expert shooters when at rest? d.
