- The director of a medical hospital feels that her surgeons perform fewer operations per year than the national average of 211. She selected a random sample of 15 surgeons and found that the mean number of operations they performed was 210.4. The standard deviation of the sample was 3.8. Is there enough evidence to support the directors feelings at (alpha) = 0.05? Assume that the population is approximately normally distributed. Use the critical value method and tables. A. State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis. B. Find the critical value(s). C. Compute the test value. D. Make the decision. E. Summarize the results.Snow avalanches can be a real problem for travelers in the western United States and Canada. A very common type of avalanche is called the slab avalanche. These have been studied extensively by David McClung, a professor of civil engineering at the University of British Columbia. Suppose slab avalanches studied in a region of Canada had an average thickness of u = 67 cm. The ski patrol at Vail, Colorado, is studying slab avalanches in its region. A random sample of avalanches in spring gave the following thicknesses (in cm). 59 51 76 38 65 54 49 62 68 55 64 67 63 74 65 79 (i) Use a calculator with sample mean and standard deviation keys to find x and s. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) X= cm S= cm (ii) Assume the slab thickness has an approximately normal distribution. Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that the mean slab thickness in the Vail region is different from that in the region of Canada. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and…The specific gravities of a simple random sample of 91 samples of a particular wort has a mean x ̄ = 1.05 platos and a standard deviation sx = 0.16 platos. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean specific gravity of this wort is less than 1.10.
- Acrylic bone cement is sometimes used in hip and knee replacements to fix an artificial joint in place. The force required to break an acrylic bone cement bond was measured for six specimens under specified conditions, and the resulting mean and standard deviation were 306.03 newtons and 41.95 newtons, respectively. Assuming that it is reasonable to believe that breaking force under these conditions has a distribution that is approximately normal, estimate the mean breaking force for acrylic bone cement under the specified conditions using a 95% confidence interval.

- An obstetrician read that a newborn baby loses on average 7 ounces in the first two days of his or her life. He feels that in the hospital where he works, the average weight loss of a newborn baby is less than 7 ounces. A random sample of 33 newborn babies has a mean weight loss of 6.2 ounces. The population standard deviation is 1.5 ounces. Is there enough evidence at =α0.01 to support his claim? Assume that the variable is normally distributed.

One line of bearings is specified to be 1.64 centimeters (cm) in diameter. A major customer requires that the variance of the bearings be no more than .001 cm². The producer is required to test the bearings before they are shipped, and so the diameters of 16 bearings are measured with a precise instrument, resulting in the following values. Assume bearing diameters are normally distributed. Use the data and a = 0.01 to test to determine whether the population of these bearings is to be rejected because of too high a variance. 1.68 1.62 1.63 1.70 1.66 1.63 1.65 1.71 1.64 1.69 1.57 1.64 1.59 1.66 1.63 1.65 Appendix A Statistical Tables (Round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)

- The slant shear test is widely accepted for evaluating the bond of resinous repair materials to concrete; it utilizes cylinder specimens made of two identical halves bonded at 30°. An article reported that for 12 specimens prepared using wire-brushing, the sample mean shear strength (N/mm2) and sample standard deviation were 18.60 and 1.56, respectively, whereas for 12 hand-chiseled specimens, the corresponding values were 23.19 and 4.07. Does the true average strength appear to be different for the two methods of surface preparation? State and test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of 0.05.

Besides being constructed of a lightweight material. one of the characteristics of the hose is that it shrinks when it is not in use. When in use, the length of hose extends to its advertised length of 50 feet. Twenty hoses are tested to see if the hoses extend to the length of 50 feet. The sample mean of the length of the hoses is 49 1/2 feet with a s of 15 inches. Test the hypothesis at alpha = .01 that the hoses are not equal to 50 feet.Acrylic bone cement is sometimes used in hip and knee replacements to fix an artificial joint in place. The force required to break an acrylic bone cement bond was measured for eight specimens under specified conditions, and the resulting mean and standard deviation were 306.11 newtons and 41.94 newtons, respectively.
