A manufacturer of automobile products has developed a new wax and is interested in comparing the new wax with their standard wax to determine if the new wax will protect a car for a longer period of time. In order to make a comparison, both waxes are applied to five new cars respectively and exposed to the same environmental conditions. The results of the test are:

Roy ‘s Texaco wants to keep the price of its unleaded gasoline competitive with that of other stations in the area. Roy’s is currently charging $1.29 per gallon. To check that the average price for this gasoline for all stations within a 15 mile radius is higher than his price, Roy randomly samples the price of unleaded gasoline at ten stations located in this area. He obtains the following data for the price per gallon (in dollars): 1.7, 1.5, 2.6, 2.2, 2.4, 2.3, 2.6, 3.0, 1.4, 2.3 Set up the appropriate hypotheses and test them using a significance level of α= .05
As part of an experiment, four fabrics are tested for flammability at the National Bureau of Standards. The following burn times in seconds are recorded after a paper tab is ignited on the hem of a dress made of each fabric.

In a science fair project, Emily conducted an experiment in which she tested professional touch therapists to see if they could sense her energy field. She flipped a coin to select either her right hand or her left hand, and then she asked the therapists to identify the selected hand by placing their hand just under Emily's hand without seeing it and without touching it. Among 356 trials, the touch therapists were correct 167 times. Complete parts (a) through (d). a. Given that Emily used a coin toss to select either her right hand or her left hand, what proportion of correct responses would be expected if the touch therapists made random guesses? (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.)

She flipped a coin to select either her right hand or her left hand, and then she asked the therapists to identify the selected hand by placing their hand just under Emily's hand without seeing it and without touching it. Among 319 trials, the touch therapists were correct 148 times. Complete parts (a) through (d). a. Given that Emily used a coin toss to select either her right hand or her left hand, what proportion of correct responses would be expected if the touch therapists made random guesses? 0.50 (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) b. Using Emily's sample results, what is the best point estimate of the therapists' success rate? 0.464 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) c. Using Emily's sample results, construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of correct responses made by touch therapists.
Thomas wants to compare the mean concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) on residential versus commercial streets, since these differ in terms of car traffic. In each of three neighborhoods of Montréal (named A, B, and C below), he randomly chooses four locations for each type of street, for a total of 24 observations (2 street types x 3 neighborhoods x 4 locations). At each location, he measures CO concentration in the air over a period of 10 hours (8:00 AM-6:00 PM), and obtains the following data (in ppm/h). Question: Test whether or not the difference between residential and commercial streets in mean atmospheric CO concentration is the same among the three neighborhoods, and whether or not CO concentration in the air is the same, on average, for the two types of streets. Note that Neighborhood is considered a random block factor in the ANOVA. Use significant level= 0.05.
A series of tests of fire prevention sprinkler systems that use a foaming agent to quell the fire were performed to determine how long it took (in seconds) for the sprinklers to be activated after the detection of a fire by the system. The system has been designed so that the true average activation time is supposed to be at most 25 seconds. Do the data strongly indicate that the design specifications have not been met? The data for the test are given below: 27 41 22 27 23 35 30 33 24 27 28 22 24

Soil samples were collected at two areas surrounding an abandoned mine and analyzed for lead. At each area several samples were taken. The soil was extracted with acid, and the extract was analyzed using flame atomic absorption spectrometry. In Area A, Pb concentrations were 1.2, 1.0, 0.9, 1.4 mg/kg. In Area B, Pb concentrations were 0.7, 1.0, 0.5, 0.6, 0.4 mg/kg. Are these two areas significantly different from each other with Pb concentrations at 90% confidence level?
