The accounting department analyzes the variance of the weekly unit costs reported by two production departments. A sample of 16 cost reports for each of the two departments shows cost variances of 2.6 and 5.3, respectively. Is this sample sufficient to conclude that the two production departments differ in terms of unit cost variance? You may need to use the appropriate technology to answer this question. Use a = 0.10.

A snack food manufacturer estimates that the variance of the number of grams of carbohydrates in servings of its tortilla chips is 1.34. A dietician is asked to test this claim and finds that a random sample of 16 servings has a variance of 1.22. At α=0.05, is there enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim? Assume the population is normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
Suppose that weights of college mathematics textbooks in the United States are normally distributed with mean µ = 2.25 lbs and variance σ2 = 0.2025 lbs. Find the weight that corresponds to Q3 and interpret this measure of position in the context of the problem.
Psi is a measure of compressive strength, or the ability of the material to carry loads and handle compression. The desired concrete psi rating used for sidewalks and residential driveways ranges from 2500psi to 3000psi obtained from mixing cement, stone, and sand in different ratios but with the same amount of water. The summary of the psi's of three (3) such concrete mixes made by three (3) different civil engineering students is given as follows: Mean vector: The variance-covariance matrix: Concrete mix Mean Concrete mix 1 Concrete mix 2 Concrete mix 3 Concrete mix 1 | Concrete mix 2 2700 18 12 2 3000 12 16 3 2400 Concrete mix 3 16 25 Let the random variable Y be the vector of the psi's of concrete mixes obtained by the students, i.e. Y1, denotes the psi of concrete mix made by student 1, Y2 is the psi of concrete mix made by student 2 and Y3 is the psi of concrete mix psi made by student 3.

A manufacturing company produces bearings. 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.)

A magazine claims that the mean amount spent by a customer at Burger Stop is greater than the mean amount spent by a customer at Fry World. The results for samples of customer transactions for the two fast food restaurants are shown below. At x = 0.01, can you support the magazine's claim? Assume the population variances are equal. Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
