A biology student wants to detemine if using a fertilizer would help promote growth of new babies in spider plants. The student has access to 90 spider plants of three varieties: green, variegated, and curly. They all are potted in the same amount and type of soil, given the same amount of water, and exposed to the same amount of light. After one year, the shoots will be counted for each plant. Which of the following describes a random block design for this experiment? The plants are numbered 01–90. Using a line from a random number table, the first 45 two-digit numbers, ignoring repeats and the numbers 91-99 and 00, represent the plants that will receive fertilizer. The remaining 45 plants will not receive fertilizer.

Let’s say a psychologist suspects that emotions affect people’s eating habits, but that the eating habits of anxious people are affected differently. Ten highly anxious subjects are randomly divided into two equal-sized groups, one of which views a horror movie while the other watches a comedy. Ten non-anxious control subjects are similarly divided. The number of ounces of popcorn eaten by each subject during the movie is recorded. How many independent variables are there in this design? Name each of the factors and levels (using appropriate descriptors from the paragraph): How many total conditions (groups) are there in this design? Name the dependent variable:
A computer manufacturer is interested in comparing assembly times for two keyboard assembly processes. Assembly times can vary considerably from worker to worker, and the company decides to eliminate this effect by selecting 8 workers at random and timing each worker on each assembly process. Half of the workers are chosen at random to use Process 1 first, and the rest use Process 2 first. For each worker and each process, the assembly time (in minutes) is recorded, as shown in the table below. Worker 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Process 1 64 65 32 76 76 90 75 71 Process 2 62 73 9 61 53 93 77 77 52 Difference 2 -8 23 15 23 (Process 1 - Process 2) 33 -3 -2 19 Send data to calculator Based on these data, can the company conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that the mean assembly times for the two processes differ? Answer this question by performing a hypothesis test regarding Hd (which is μ with a letter "d" subscript), the population mean difference in assembly times for the two processes.…
2. In a population it is estimated that 20% have a desired trait of interest for the researcher. The researcher wants to know how many people on average he has to draw from a population to get 2 people with the trait. Use rows 20-24 of the Random Number Table to carry out the simulation. Explain clearly how you set up the problem and report your findings. Answer:
A dairy farmer thinks that the average weight gain of his cows depends on two factors: the type of grain that they are fed and the type of grass that they are fed. The dairy farmer has four different types of grain from which to choose and three different types of grass from which to choose. He would like to determine if there is a particular combination of grain and grass that would lead to the greatest weight gain on average for his cows. He randomly selects three one-year-old cows and assigns them to each of the possible combinations of grain and grass. After one year he records the weight gain for each cow (in pounds) with the following results. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference in the average weight gains among the cows for the different types of grain? Cow Weight Gain (Pounds) Grass A Grass B Grass B Grain A 359359 327327 232232 277277 250250 163163 191191 304304 216216 Grain B 331331 348348 176176 318318 205205…

250 adults are practicing every day before taking part in a high-stakes children's game. The game requires them carefully to remove a shape- either a star or an umbrella-from a sugar wafer. 30% of those who choose stars on a given day will switch to umbrellas the next day, and 20% of those who choose umbrellas on a given day will switch to stars the next day. (a) If 150 contestants practice with stars today, how many will practice with umbrellas tomorrow? (b) If the actual game is held a long time from now, what proportion of contestants do we expect will be practicing with stars each day close to then?
A manufacturing plant makes computer chips 24 hours a day. Employees work one of three, 8 hour shifts during the morning (2am-10am), day (10am-6pm), and night (6pm-2am). Below are data on the number of defective chips on a randomly chosen 24 hour period. Shift Morning Day Night Number of Defective Chips 23 26 47 Total Chips Manufactured 330 330 330 The plant manager thinks there might be more defective computer chips manufactured during the night shift compared to the day shift. Give appropriate statistical evidence to test the managers' claim.
Itranscript One male and one female dam rat pup were randomly selected from 8 litters to perform the swim maze. Each pup was placed in the water at one end of the maze and allowed to swim until it escaped at the opposite end. If the pup failed to escape after a certain period of time, it was placed at the beginning of the maze and given another chance. The experiment was repeated until each pup accomplished three successful escapes. The table to the right reports the number of swims required by each pup. Is there sufficient evidence of a difference between the mean number of swims required by male and female pups? Use a=0.01. Comment on the assumptions required for the test to be valid.

1. For her botany class project, Jennifer wonders if there is a connection between the average weight of watermelons a vine produces and the root depth of the vine. Jennifer suspects that vines with deeper roots have a better water supply and produce larger melons. From a large watermelon field, 10 vines are chosen at random. At the end of 8 weeks, the watermelons are removed from each vine and the average weight of the watermelons from each vine is determined. Each plant is carefully dug up and its root depth (or length) is measure. Let x represent the root depth (to the nearest inch) and y be the mean weight of the watermelons on the vine (in pounds). Suppose that x = 17, s, = 6, y = 12, s, = 5.1, and r = = 0.93. a. Find the equation of the least squares regression line (round a and b to the nearest tenth). b. List 2 points that you know will be on the least-squares line you found in part a. c. What percent of variation is accounted for by a linear relationship? d. Using part a.,…
