A company manufactures transistors in three different plants A, B, and C whosemanufacturing methods are very similar. It is decided to inspect those transistors that aremanufactures in plant A since plant A is the largest plant and statisticians are available there.In order to inspect a week's production, 100 transistors will be selected at random and testedfor defects. Define the sampled population and target population. It is then decided to usethe results in plant A to draw conclusions about plants B and C. Define the sampled and targetpopulations.

The sampled population refers to the group of transistors that are selected for testing and…

According to World Health Organization (WHO), the recommended limit for a noise level inside a classroom is 35 dBA. However, nine out of ten schools fail to meet this recommendation. A researcher wishes to conduct a study relevant to the prior information, but as a gap, he decides to include the area (in square meters) of every classroom and how it could possibly affect the resulting noise level. He selects 17 classrooms at random, and the noise levels are recorded in the next slide. a. Find the regression equation and construct the scatter plot diagram. b. Predict the noise level if a classroom has an area of 85.97 m2 . c. Calculate the coefficient of determination and interpret the findings. d. Calculate the coefficient of alienation and interpret the findings. Use Excel

Four different formulations of an industrial glue are being tested. Each of the different formulations were randomly applied to joint parts of five test specimen and the tensile strength of the glue when it is applied to each test specimen is recorded. However, the tensile strength is also related to the application thickness. The data on the strength (in lbs) and thickness (in 0.01 inches) are shown in the following table. Identify the treatment (specify levels), experimental units, concomitant variable, and response variable.
A researcher is trying find out which of the 3 Vaccine types and age groups has the highest immune response via antibody titer. You assign different municipalities to a combination of age groups (i.e., 18-30, 31-50, 51-75 y.o.) and Vaccine type (i.e., Vaccine 1, 2, 3) and took the antibody titer measurements of the participants after 2 weeks of vaccine inoculation. Given this scenario, what particular statistical tool will you use to know if vaccine type and age group have an effect on average antibody titer? Why? Explain thoroughly.
The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) received a complaint from recreational fishermen that a community was releasing sewage into the river where they fished. These types of releases lower the level of dissolved oxygen in the river and hence cause damage to the fish residing in the river. An inspector from the DNR designs a study to investigate the fishermen’s claim. Fifteen water samples are selected at locations on the river upstream from the community and fifteen samples are selected downstream from the community. The dissolved oxygen readings in parts per million (ppm) are given in the following table.Upstream 5.2 4.8 5.1 5.0 4.9 4.8 5.0 4.7 4.7 5.0 4.6 5.2 5.0 4.9 4.7, Downstream 3.2 3.4 3.7 3.9 3.6 3.8 3.9 3.6 4.1 3.3 4.5 3.7 3.9 3.8 3.7 a.In order for the discharge to have an impact on fish health, there needs to be at least a 0.5 ppm reduction in the dissolved oxygen. Do the data provide sufficient evidence that there is a large enough reduction in the mean dissolved oxygen…
David Bowie is interested in finding intelligent life in other solar systems. To do so, he randomly selects 300 stars and records any instances of microwave radiation from those stars (a likely candidate for extra terrestrial communication). What is the population of this study?
An army that overhauls ground mobile radar systems is interested in improving its processes. One problem involves troubleshooting a particular component that has a high failure rate after it has been repaired and reinstalled in the system. The shop floor supervisor believes that having standard work procedures in place will reduce the time required for troubleshooting this component. Time (in minutes) required troubleshooting this component without and with the standard work procedure is recorded for a sample of 19 employess. In order to determine if having a standard work procedure in place reduces troubleshooting time, they should use: a test of two proportions a two-tailed test of two independent means. a one-tailed test of two indepedent means. a two-tailed paired t-test. a one-tailed paired t-test
A personal computer manufacturer is interested in comparing assembly times for two keyboard assembly processes. To do this, the company selects 12 workers at random and asks each of them to use both assembly processes. The assembly time (in minutes) for Process 1 is recorded for each of these workers. Then, the assembly time for Process 2 is recorded for each of the same workers. The data and the differences (Process 1 minus Process 2) are shown in the table below. esc Worker Process 1 Process 2.
