A manufacturer of automotive shock absorbers is interested in comparing the durability of its shocks absorbers with its competitor. One shock absorber from each manufacturer are installed on each rear wheels of six cars. After the cars had been driven for 20000 km, the strength of each test shock absorber was measured and recorded. Results of the test shock are shown below. 2. Car 1 3 4 6 Manufacturer 8.9 10.7 12.5 9.7 9.5 13.2 Shock Competitor 9.9 10.2 12.1 9.3 9.0 13.4 Do the data present sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the mean strength of the two types of shocks after 20000 km of use? Use a = 0.05 .

Elvin wants to know how the school views him as their leader. He asked his friend, Marcus, to research it. After a week, Marcus told him that a sample of 400 schoolmates selected at random indicated that 58% of them hold him in high regard. Determine the confidence interval at 60% confidence level.
Construct a 95% confidence interval for p1 - p2 for a survey that finds 30% of 240 males and 41% of 200 females are opposed to the death penalty. Group of answer choices a.(-0.200, -0.021) b.(-1.532, 1.342) c.(-1.324, 1.512) d.(-0.561, 0.651)
A box model is used to calculate a confidence interval in the following scenario: One thousand high school students in a large city are randomly selected for a survey. Among these students, the average reported GPA is 3.0, and the SD is 1.22. For each of the following quantities in the box model, select the answer if the quantity is estimated, not known. Leave the quantities that are known unselected. a. the SD of GPA of high school students in the sample b. the average GPA of high school students in the sample c. the average GPA of all high school students in the city d. the SD of the tickets in the box
Matilda has constructed three confidence intervals, all from the same random sample. The confidence levels are 95%, 98%, 99.9%. The confidence intervals are 6.4<u<12.3, 5.1<u<13.6, and 6.8<u<11.8. Unfortunately, Matilda has forgotten which confidence interval goes with level. Match each confidence interval with its level. what confidence goes with each the confidence level and indicate whether these confidence intervals are for a population mean or for a population proportion, also include support with the results.
For the data set below, calculate r, r2, and a 95 percent confidence interval in r units.

Beth wants to determine a 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of high school students in the area who attend their home basketball games. How large of a sample must she have to get a margin of error less than 0.04? Assume we have no prior estimate of the proportion and want a conservative choice for the sample size. n =
Two brands of tires were compared for the proportion of defective tires. Random samples of tires were collected from each brand, and the number of defective tires from each brand was recorded. The data is in the following table. Number of defective tires (x) 41 32 n Continental Michelin 320 180 a.Construct a 97% confidence interval for the difference between the two proportions. b.For part a, find the desired sample sizes if you want the Continental sample to be 1.5 times Michelin sample with a sampling error equal to 0.03. c. Conduct a test of hypothesis to determine if the defective rates are the same. Use the P-value to interpret the results (a is not given).
