A beverage company has two bottling plants in different parts of the world. To insure uniformity in their product, the variances of the weights of the bottles at the two plants should be equal. But John, the company's vice president of quality assurance, suspects that the variance at bottling plant A is less than the variance at bottling plant B. To test his suspicions, John samples 33 bottles from bottling plant A and 35 bottles from bottling plant B, with the following results (in ounces): Bottling Plant A: 12.9, 14.2, 13.7, 13.2, 13.8, 12.6, 14.5, 14.2, 13.3, 14.2, 13.4, 13.1, 13.1, 13.1, 13.9, 14, 13.4, 12.8, 13.7, 12.8, 12.8, 13.6, 12.8, 13.1, 13.3, 12.2, 12.6, 12.4, 12.7, 13.6, 13, 13.1, 13.4 Bottling Plant B: 13.3, 13.7, 13.4, 13.5, 12.6, 12.6, 13, 14.4, 13.1, 13.1, 13.4, 13.7, 12.6, 13.7, 13, 12.5, 12.7, 13.4 13.8, 12.8, 12.8, 12.9, 13.6, 13.2, 13.2, 14, 13.2, 13.1, 14.3, 13.6, 13.4, 13.2, 13, 13.1, 12.8 Perform a hypothesis test using a 8% evel of significance to test John's suspicions.

Thompson Photo Works purchased several new, highly sophisticated processing machines. The production department needed some guidance with respect to qualifications needed by an operator. Is age a factor? Is a person's mechanical aptitude score important? To evaluate the factors needed to estimate performance on the new processing machines, four variables were selected: x1 = Length of time an employee was in the industryx2 = Mechanical aptitude test scorex3 = Prior on-the-job ratingx4 = Age Performance on the new machine is designated y.Thirty employees were randomly selected and data were collected for each of the variables. A few results follow: Name Performance on New Machine,y Length of Time in Industry,x1 Mechanical Aptitude Score,x2 Prior On-the-Job Performance,x3 Age,x4 Mike Miraglia 112 4 392 119 41 Sue Trythall 117 5 305 127 30 The equation is:yˆy⁢^⁢ = 10.3 + 0.4x1 + 0.986x2 + 0.212x3 + 0.007x4 As age increases by one year, how much does estimated performance on…
The Difference of Two Sample Proportions: III Belinda plans to take a simple random sample of 2500 U.S. adults and to compute the proportion of them who believe in the theory of evolution. (Call this sample proportion p1-hat.) She also intends to take an independent simple random sample of 1600 adults from France and to compute the the proportion of them who believe in the theory of evolution. (Call this sample proportion p2-hat.) Unknown to Belinda, the proportion of all U.S. adults who believe in the theory of evolution is 0.50 (or 50%), whereas the proportion of all French adults who believe in the theory of evolution is 0.75, or 75%. Using the expected value and the SD of p1-hat minus p2-hat, which of the following makes the most sense? Group of answer choices ( ) The percentage of adults in the U.S. sample who believe in evolution should turn out to be about 25% less than the percentage of adults in the French sample who believe in evolution, give or take about 3% or so for…

Maple syrup is a non-negligible nutritional source of manganese. It is made from the sap of two species of maple: the sugar maple and the black maple. To see if there is a significant difference between the manganese content of these two species of maple, we measured the manganese content (in mg per 100g syrup) for a sample of sugar maples and a sample of black maples. The data is summarized by the Minitab output below: Two-sample T for Sugar Maple Black Maple group N Mean St Dev SE Mean Sugar Maple 20 Black Maple 12 3.55 0.29 Find: (i) a point estimate for ₁-2, where ₁ and 2 are the average manganese contents of the sugar maple, respectively the black maple; (ii) the standard error of X₁ - X₂.

Noise pollution is measured in decibels. In California any motorcycle made after 1980 may not be any louder than 80 decibels. Harley Davidson claims their mean decibel rating on bikes is 70 with a variance of 10. The variance of the noise is questioned. Just because Harley has a mean that is less than 80, they could still be producing louder than acceptable bikes. The federal EPA conducts a sample of 30 bikes and determines the variance to be 20 decibels. Is there enough evidence to question Harley’s claim of 10 decibels?
The following table was generated from the sample data of 1010 junior high students regarding the average number of hours they are unsupervised per night, the average number of hours they play video games per night, and their final grades in their math class.

You conducted additional studies with these men and found the following: The RR for those who drank one drink per day was 1.50 (95% CI:1.32-1.67) in comparison to the abstainers. For those men who drank three or more drinks per day the RR compared to the abstainers was 4.20 (95% CI 2.68-5.85). Which one of Hill’s criteria does this illustrate? Explain.
When the measure of spread is compared between two data sets, data set A has an interquartile range of 12, and data set B has an interquartile range of 23. How do the values of data set A compare to data set B? The values of data set A are about the same on average as the values of data set B. The values of data set A are more spread out compared to the values of data set B. The values of data set A are less spread out compared to the values of data set B. The values of data set A are less on average compared to the values of data set B.
On average, a sample of n = 36 scores will provide a better estimate of the population mean than a sample of n = 49 scores from the same population.
A police academy has just brought in a batch of new recruits. All recruits are given an aptitude test and a fitness test. Suppose a researcher wants to know if there is a significant difference in aptitude scores based on a recruits’ fitness level. Recruits are ranked on a scale of 1 – 3 for fitness (1 = lowest fitness category, 3 = highest fitness category). Using “ApScore” as your dependent variable and “FitGroup” as your independent variable, conduct a One-Way, Between Subjects, ANOVA, at α = 0.05, to see if there is a significant difference on the aptitude test between fitness groups. Identify the correct symbolic notation for the alternative hypothesis. A. H0: µ1 = µ2 B. HA: µ1 ≠ µ2 ≠ µ3 C. H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3 D. HA: µ1 ≠ µ2
