4. A lithium battery company claims that the lifetime of a type of battery that it manufactures is more than 250 hours. A surveyor firm wishing to determine whether the claim is justified measures the lifetimes of 24 of the company's batteries. The results are listed below: 271 230 198 275 282 225 284 219 253 216 262 288 236 291 253 224 264 295 211 252 294 243 272 268 Assuming the sample to be random, use the sign test to determine whether the company’s claim is justified at the 0.05 significance level.

As practiced by many in buying skirts or pants, they use the neckline to check if the waistline of the skirts or pants fits them. We would like to study this claim by using a random sample of neckline and waistline of 15 people. The data collected are summarized as follows: Subject 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 14 15 13 Neckline 35 34 38 45 38 33 38 42 44 33 35 31 33 35 30 (cm) Waistline(cm) 83 97 100 86 82 77 82 91 62 93 57 67 93 57 3-4. The regression equation is: Waistline' = - 3.9964 2.30321 neckline 5. Using the regression equation/model for waistline in Number 3-4, estimate the waistline if the neckline of a person is 37 cm. Round off final answer to two decimal places. 6-8. Solve for the coefficient of determination, r2 (Express the answer in percentage form, r2 x 100%; Round off final answers to two decimal places): E(y/ – 9)² = E(y – 9)² = 9.

A governmental agency computed the proportion of violent crimes in the United States in a particular year falling into each of four categories. A simple random sample of 500 violent crimes committed in California during that year were categorized in the same way. The following table presents the results. Category U.S.Proportion CaliforniaFrequency Murder 0.018 4 Forcible Rape 0.07 35 Robbery 0.390 218 Aggravated Assault 0.522 243 Can you conclude that the proportions of crimes in the various categories in California differ from those in the United States as a whole? Use the 0.05 level of significance and the P-value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. (b) Find the P-value. Round the answer to at least four decimal places.
