2. Metal Tags on Penguins and Survival. Data were collected over a 10-year timespan from a sample of 100 penguins that were randomly given either metal or electronic tags. One variable examined is the survival rate 10 years after tagging. The scientists observed that 10 of the 50 metal tagged penguins survived, compared to 18 of the 50 electronic tagged penguins. Test whether the survival rate is lower among metal- tagged penguins than among electronic-tagged penguins. Use subscripts E for Electronic and M for Metal. a. State hypotheses. b. Calculate the sample statistic PE - PM c. Use Normal distribution methods to calculate a z-test statistic, given SE = 0.0898. d. Find the p-value and draw a Normal curve with z-statistic and appropriate shaded region. Normal curve: p-value: e. State the conclusion of the test in context, using nontechnical language. f.

Studies indicate that excessive noise at night can affect weight gain. One study of n = 127 rats compared the weight gain of rats exposed to excessive noise at night and the weight gain of rats in a quiet night environment. Sample statistics for the study are given in the table below. Use this information to determine if there is significant evidence that weight gain of rats exposed to excessive noise at night is different on average than weight gain of rats in a quiet night environment. Excessive noise at night environment (Group 1) Quiet night environment (Group 2) Sample mean (grams) 22.4 19.9 Sample standard deviation (grams) 6.4 3.8 Observations/Sample size 69 58 The p-value for this test is 0.0086. Make a decision and conclusion for the hypothesis test in context. Use a 5% significance level (α = 0.05).

Security scans are often completed on computers in a particular college to assess the security risk from viruses etc. A sample of 120 computers which are considered at risk for viruses and other security issues are checked with a particular security scanner on a Monday and then monitored over the following week. The number of computers which broke down over the following week were recorded. The results are as follows: Security Scan (% Risk) Breakdown No Breakdown Low Risk (0 - 10%) 3 61 Slight/Moderate Risk (10 – 30%) 13 28 High Risk (>30%) 12 3 (i) Based on the above sample work out the probability that a computer in the college will breakdown. Input your answer correct to 4 decimal places here: (ii) Based on the above sample work out the probability that a computer has a low risk level OR doesn't breakdown.

You may need to use the appropriate technology to answer this question. The Consumer Reports Restaurant Customer Satisfaction Survey is based upon 148,599 visits to full-service restaurant chains.† One of the variables in the study is meal price, the average amount paid per person for dinner and drinks, minus the tip. Suppose a reporter for a local newspaper thought that it would be of interest to her readers to conduct a similar study for restaurants located in her city. The reporter selected a sample of 8 seafood restaurants, 8 Italian restaurants, and 8 steakhouses. The following data show the meal prices ($) obtained for the 24 restaurants sampled.

Kris works for the MESA Air Pollution Study at UW, and studies the correlation be- tween air pollution and the disease atherosclerosis. Nationally, 40% of adults suffer from atherosclerosis. Kris suspects that the proportion of people with atherosclerosis in high- pollution areas is higher. In a random sample of 600 residents of high-pollution areas, he finds that 270 (45%) subjects have atherosclerosis. At the 1% level (α = .01), is this good evidence that people in high-pollution areas are more likely to have atherosclerosis? (a) Which of the following is the Ha ? (research claim or alternate) A. Ha : p ≥ 0.40 B. Ha : pb ≥ 0.40 C. Ha : p > 0.40 D. Ha : p > b 0.40 E. Ha : p > b 0.45 F. Ha : p > 0.45 G. Ha : pb ≥ 0.45 H. Ha : p ≥ 0.45 I.

A recent study on driving behavior examined whether the combination of high driving skills and low safety skills is dangerous. Participants were classified as high or low in driving skill based on responses to a driver-skill inventory, then classified as high or low in safety skill based on responses to a driver-aggression scale. An overall measure of driving risk was obtained by combining several variables such as number of accidents, tickets, tendency to speed, etc. The following data were obtained. Use a 2 x 2 ANOVA with the .05 significance level to evaluate the results. What cutoff score(s) should be used? Driving Skill Low High Safety Skill Low M1=5 M2=4.5 S1=2.7 S2=3.8 N1=6 N2=6 HIgh M3=3 M4=3.5 S3=2.9 S4=2.5 N3=6 N4=6 Group of answer choices +4.35 +3.40 +3.49 +4.26
