8.1.13 WP GO Tutorial An article in the Journal of Agricultural Science ["The Use of Residual Maximum Likelihood to Model Grain Quality Characteristics of Wheat with Variety, Climatic and Nitrogen Fertilizer Effects" (1997, Vol. 128, pp. 135–142)] investigated means of wheat grain crude protein content (CP) and Hagberg falling number (HFN) surveyed in the United Kingdom. The analysis used a variety of nitrogen fertilizer applications (kg N/ha), temperature (°C), and total monthly rainfall (mm). The following data below describe temperatures for wheat grown at Harper Adams Agricultural College between 1982 and 1993. The temperatures measured in June were obtained as follows: 15.2 14.2 14.0 12.2 14.4 12.5 14.3 14.2 13.5 11.8 15.2 Assume that the standard deviation is known to be σ = 0.5. a. Construct a 99% two-sided confidence interval on the mean temperature. b. Construct a 95% lower-confidence bound on the mean temperature. c. Suppose that you wanted to be 95% confident that the error in estimating the mean temperature is less than 2 degrees Celsius. What sample size should be used? d. Suppose that you wanted the total width of the two-sided confidence interval on mean temperature to be 1.5 degrees Celsius at 95% confidence. What sample size should be used? 8.2.10 WP SS An article in Computers & Electrical Engineer- ing ["Parallel Simulation of Cellular Neural Networks" (1996, Vol. 22, pp. 61-84)] considered the speedup of cellular neu- ral networks (CNNs) for a parallel general-purpose computing architecture based on six transputers in different areas. The data follow: 3.775302 3.350679 4.217981 4.030324 4.639692 4.315973 4.139665 4.395575 4.824257 4.930027 4.268119 4.584193 4.600101 a. Is there evidence to support the assumption that speedup of CNN is normally distributed? Include a graphical display in your answer. b. Construct a 95% two-sided confidence interval on the mean speedup. c. Construct a 95% lower confidence bound on the mean speedup.
