Avobenzone is one of the active ingredients in several commercially available sunscreens. It can be absorbed into the bloodstream when sunscreen is applied to the skin. The Food and Drug Administration has expressed concern about the safety of absorbing too much avobenzone. Researchers recruited 24 healthy volunteers to investigate avobenzone absorption for four different commercially available sunscreens: two sprays, a lotion, and a cream. Do the types of sunscreens (spray, lotion, and cream) differ in terms of how much avobenzone is absorbed into the blood? Subjects were randomly assigned to one of the four sunscreens, with six subjects for each. Subjects had 2 milligrams of sunscreen per 1 cm? applied to 75% of their body surface area (area outside of normal swimwear) four times per day for four days. The amount of avobenzone absorbed into the bloodstream (in nanograms per milliliter ap-plied, ng/mL) after 150 hours was then measured for each subject. For the purpose of analyzing…

It has been observed that some persons who suffer renal failure, again suffer renal failure within one year of the first episode. This is due, in part, to damage from the first episode. The performance of a new drug designed to prevent a second episode is to be tested for its effectiveness in preventing a second episode. In order to do this two groups of people suffering a first episode are selected. There are 55 people in the first group and this group will be administered the new drug. There are 75 people in the second group and this group will be administered a placebo. After one year, 10% of the first group has a second episode and 9% of the second group has a second episode. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine, at the significance level 0.01, whether there is reason to believe that the true percentage of those in the first group who suffer a second episode is different from the true percentage of those in the second group who suffer a second episode?

In the city of AZ, there are two supermarkets, X-Mart and Y-Mart. It is assumed that every shopper makes a purchase once a week at one of these supermarkets (not both).In a study, 100 samples of shoppers were taken over 10 weeks. From the study, it is known that if a shopper goes to X-Mart in one week, 85 people will continue to shop at X-Mart in the following week, and if a shopper goes to Y-Mart in one week, 70 people will continue to shop at Y-Mart in the following week.Create a transition probability table and matrix for this scenario, and then If in the first week Ivankov buys from X-Mart, what is the probability that Terry will buy from X-Mart in the third and fourth weeks?
Many regions in North and South Carolina and Georgia have experienced rapid population growth over the last 10 years. It is expected that the growth will continue over the next 10 years. This has motivated many of the large grocery store chains to build new stores in the region. The Kelley’s Super Grocery Stores Inc. chain is no exception. The director of planning for Kelley’s Super Grocery Stores wants to study adding more stores in this region. He believes there are two main factors that indicate the amount families spend on groceries. The first is their income and the other is the number of people in the family. The director gathered the following sample information. Family Food Income Size 1 $ 5.04 $ 73.98 4 2 4.08 54.90 2 3 5.76 94.14 4 4 3.48 52.02 1 5 4.20 65.70 2 6 4.80 53.64 4 7 4.32 79.74 3 8 5.04 68.58 4 9 6.12 165.60 5 10 3.24 64.80 1 11 4.80…

The operations manager for an appliance manufacturer wants to determine the optimal length of time for the washing cycle of a household clothes washer. An experiment is designed to measure the effect of detergent brand and washing cycle time on the amount of dirt removed from standard household laundry loads. Four brands of detergent (A,B,C,D) and four levels of washing cycles (18, 20, 22, and 24 minutes) are specifically selected for analysis. 32 standard household laundry loads (having equal weight and dirt) are randomly assigned to the 16 detergent-washing cycle time combinations. The results (in pounds of dirt removed) are: Washing Cycle Time (in Minutes) Brand 18 20 22 24 A 0.11 0.13 0.17 0.17 0.09 0.13 0.19 0.18 B 0.12 0.14 0.17 0.19 0.1 0.15 0.18 0.17 0.08 0.16 0.18 0.2 0.09 0.13 0.17 0.16 0.11 0.12 0.16 0.15 0.13 0.13 0.17 0.17 Perform a Two-way Analysis of Variance with Replication in Excel and output the ANOVA table assuming a 5% level of significance.

It has been observed that some persons who suffer colitis, again suffer colitis within one year of the first episode. This is due, in part, to damage from the first episode. The performance of a new drug designed to prevent a second episode is to be tested for its effectiveness in preventing a second episode. In order to do this two groups of people suffering a first episode are selected. There are 170 people in the first group and this group will be administered the new drug. There are 132 people in the second group and this group wil be administered a placebo. After one year, 14% of the first group has a second episode and 18% of the second group has a second episode. What is a 90% confidence interval for the difference in true proportion of the two groups/
Peggy and Akila are conducting an experiment to determine the effectiveness of live feed types on the growth of 100 Tilapias in a pond. The live feeds in question are earthworm, tubifex worm, bloodworm, water flea, and algae. They are testing of all possible feeds and combinations of the feed.

Imagine you work for a large company that sells a variety of cleaning supplies deigned to prevent the spread of viruses. You decide to investigate what the best method for preventing the spread of viruses is, if only one method is used. You design experiments with the following groups: hand sanitizer only, hand washing without soap, hand washing with soap, along with a control group. Each group has 181 observations during testing, beginning with a certain amount of the viruses present before treatment is applied. The amount of germs is being measured. You find a sum of squares between treatments of 578.59, along with a sum of squares error of 5022.05. Using this information, what is the F-statistic of your analysis?
