A company produces apple juice bottles with a volume of approximately 3 liters each. One machine fills half of each bottle with concentrate, and another machine fills the other half with water. Assume the two machines work independently. The volume (in liters) of concentrate poured by the first machine follows a normal distribution with mean 0.96 and variance 0.0007. The volume of water (in liters) poured by the second machine follows a normal distribution with mean 1.02 and variance 0.0018. A bottle of orange juice produced by this company is therefore a mixture of water and concentrate. What is the probability that a bottle contains more than 2.12 liters of juice?

For a standardized psychology examination, the scores have a mean of 500 and a variance of 9475. It is hypothesized that the variance, o, of scores for psychology majors on this exam is lower than 9475. A random sample of 26 exams completed by psychology majors had a mean of 509 and a variance of 3987. Assuming that scores among psychology majors on this exam are approximately normally distributed, may we conclude, at the 0.01 level of significance, that the hypothesis is correct? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified below. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H,. H, :0 H :0 (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use.

A therapist would like to evaluate an intervention for treating depression. A sample of n = 20 depressed clients is obtained, and each person’s level of depression is measured using a standardized questionnaire before they begin the therapy program. Two weeks after therapy, each client’s level of depression is measured again. The average level of depression dropped by 4.0 points following therapy. The difference scores had a variance of 64. Identify and Cclculate the appropriate test statistic.Make sure to report the degrees of freedom for the statistical test (if appropriate). You must show your work to receive full credit. State your conclusions (use a two-tailed test with a = .05 for all tests). Compute an effect size.
Professor Hayashi has implemented a new book for his Fall 2013 statistics course. He wants to see if the new book has an effect on the exam average for Exam 3. He knows that the Exam 3 mean for all students who have taken his statistic course over the past 10 years is 77.2. He collects some data from a sample of 9 students and finds that the Exam 3 mean for his Fall 2013 statistics students is 81.7 with a variance of 32.49.Measure effect size using Cohen's D.
A company is doing a hypothesis test on the variation in quality from two suppliers. Both distributions are normal, and the populations are independent. Use a = 0.05. A sample of 23 products were selected from Supplier 1 and a standard deviation of quality was found to be 6.659. A sample of 25 products were selected from Supplier 2 and a standard deviation of quality was found to be 2.8432. Test to see if the variance in quality for Supplier 1 is larger than Supplier 2. What are the correct hypotheses? Note this may view better in full screen mode. Select the correct symbols in the order they appear in the problem.

The main number of English courses taken in a two-year time period by male and female college students is believed to be about the same. An experiment is conducted and data are collected from 29 males and 16 females. This males took an average of three English courses with a standard deviation of 0.8. The females took an average of four English courses with a standard deviation of 1.0. Are the means statistically the same? Assume that the variances are not equal. Test at 5% level of significance.

Highway engineers in Ohio are painting white stripes on a highway. The stripes are supposed to be approximately 10 feet long. However, because of the machine, the operator, and the motion of the vehicle carrying the equipment, considerable variation occurs among the stripe lengths. Engineers claim that the variance of stripes should be less than 16 inches squared. At α = .05, use the sample lengths given here from 12 measured stripes (in feet and inches) to test the variance claim. Assume stripe length is normally distributed. (in feet) (in inches) 9.85 118.2 9.7 116.4 9.9 118.8 9.5 114 9.15 109.8 10.1 121.2 10 120 9.8 117.6 9.9 118.8 10.3 123.6 10.1 121.2 10.2 122.4 The appropriate test for this question is: a Z-test for the true variance of stripe length. a t-test for the true mean of stripe length. a Chi-square test…
In a certain year, 28.9% of all light vehicles were light trucks, 28.9% were SUVS, and 42.2% were cars. The probability that a severe side-impact crash would prove deadly to a driver depended on the type of vehicle he or she was driving at the time, as shown in the table. What is the probability that the victim of a deadly side-impact accident was driving an SUV? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Light Truck .210 SUV .371 Car 1.000 Need Help? Watch It
The number of words in the active vocabulary of children of a particular age is normally distributed with a mean of 3,000 and a variance of 250,000. What is the minimum number of words the child would have to know to be in the top 2%?
An employer measured the number of units sold by his 400 sales employees. He noted that 40 woman employees had a mean sales of 122 and a variance of 60 while 35 men employees had a mean performance of 126 and a variance of 74. Assuming that the employees were randomly selected and the distribution is normal, is there a reason to believe that there is significant difference between the sales mean performances of the men and women sales employees? Use 0.01 level to test its significance. (Use the two sample mean z-test.)
A researcher is interested in whether North Americans are able to identify emotions correctly in people from other cultures. It is known that, using a particular method of measurement, the accuracy ratings of adult North Americans in general are normally distributed with a mean of 82 and a variance of 20. This distribution is based on ratings made of emotions expressed by other North Americans. In the present study, however, the researcher arranges to test 50 adult North Americans rating emotions of individuals from Vulcan. The mean accuracy for these 50 individuals was 78. What should the researcher conclude?
