Suppose we have two samples of data on the number of violent incidents in a number of local areas of the Sydney CBD and nearby surrounds. Pubs, hotels and clubs located in a subset of these areas became subject to the lockout laws when they were introduced in 2014. The first sample is from 2010 before the introduction of the lockout laws, and the second is from 2015 after the introduction of the law. The hypothesis we wish to test is that the introduction of the lockout laws reduces violent incidents in the areas in which the lockout laws were put in place. We use a difference-in-difference model on the pooled data from 2010 and 2015. We find the following results: viol_inc hat = 33.21 (5.29) + 12.43lockout (7.01) – 4.19Yr2015 (2.98) – 3.32 (lockout x Yr2015) (1.85) N = 181, R^2 = 0.128 Where: viol_incis the…A state fisheries commission wants to estimate the number of bass caught in a given lake during a season in order to restock the lake with the appropriate number of young fish. The commission could get a fairly accurate assessment of the seasonal catch by extensive “netting sweeps" of the lake before and after a season, but this technique is much too expensive to be done routinely. Therefore, the commission samples a number of lakes and record the seasonal catch (thousands of bass per square mile of lake area) and size of lake (square miles). A simple linear regression was performed and the following R output obtained. Estimate Std.

- The world is currently being adversely affected by the COFLU-20 pandemic. Persons are required to take certain measures to prevent the spread of this virus; however, persons’ knowledge, attitudes and practices towards COFLU-20 may influence their adherence to these measures. A researcher decided to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes and practices towards COFLU-20 of adults living in the English-speaking Caribbean. To gather the data, the researcher developed an online survey consisting of four (4) sections. Section A gathered demographic data on the respondents including their gender, marital status, highest level of education attained, occupation and country of residence. Section B consisted of 15 questions that gathered data on the respondents’ knowledge of COFLU-20. Section C consisted of 10 questions that gathered data on the respondents’ attitudes towards COFLU-20. The final section, Section D, consisted of 5 questionsthat gathered information on the respondents’ practices against…The world is currently being adversely affected by the COFLU-20 pandemic.

The intersection of US-501 and US-17 Bypass was designed such that 50% of the traffic would continue straight on 501, 30% would go north on 17 Bypass, and 20% would go south on 17 Bypass. Since then, there has been a significant amount of commercial growth around the intersection that may have impacted the traffic flow. A sample of 600 cars is to be reviewed to see if the traffic has significantly changed using the chi-square test. How many cars do you expect to go straight on US-501?
- An executive at the home office of Big Rock Life Insurance is considering three branch managers as candidates for promotion to vice president. The branch reports include records showing sales volume for each salesperson in the branch (in hundreds of thousands of dollars). A random sample of these records was selected for salespersons in each branch. All three branches are located in cities in which per capita income is the same. The executive wishes to compare these samples to see if there is a significant difference in performance of salespersons in the three different branches. If so, the information will be used to determine which of the managers to promote. Branch Managed by Adams Branch Managed by McDale Branch Managed by Vasquez 7.8 8.8 6.5 6.6 10.3 8.7 10.1 11.7 10.1 10.6 9.4 11.4 9.1 10.2 Use a 1% level of significance.

Their analysis of the data showed that New York was the most expensive city. The following table shows the average daily hotel room rate (*) and the average amount spent on entertainment (y) for a random sample of 9 of the 25 most-visited U.S. cities. These data lead to the estimated regression equation ŷ = 17.49 +1.0334x. For these data SSE = 1541.4. Click on the datafile logo to reference the data. Use Table 1 of Appendix B.

Since this father has taken a stats class, he knows that can actually test to see whether or not his son is watching more TV than his peers The father collects a random sample of watching times from boys at his son's high school and gets the following data: 1.9, 2.3, 2.2, 1.9, 1.6, 2.6, 1.4, 2.0, 2.0, 2.2 Find a 95% confidence interval for the true mean number of hours teenagers at that school watch TV. a.

- PETROGAS is testing new filters for its motorbikes. One brand of filter (Filter A) is placed in one motorbike, and the other brand (Filter B) is placed in the second motorbike. Random samples of air released from the motorbikes are taken at different times throughout the day. Pollutant concentrations are measured for both motorbikes at the same time. The following data attached represent the pollutant concentrations (in parts per million) for samples taken at 20 different times after passing through the filters. a. Test the hypothesis that the mean for the pollutant concentration for Filter B is greater than 30. Use the 1% level of significance. b. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean pollutant concentration, where a difference is equal to the pollutant concentration passing through Filter A minus the passing through Filter B. c. Using the 5% significance level, determine whether there is evidence that mean for the pollutant concentration for Filter A…The plant-breeding department at a major university developed a new hybrid boysenberry plant called Stumptown Berry. Based on research data, the claim is made that from the time shoots are planted 90 days on average are required to obtain the first berry. A corporation that is interested in marketing the product, tests 60 shoots by planting them and recording the number of days before each plant produces its first berry. The sample mean is 92.3 days. The corporation will not market the product if the mean number of days is more than the 90 days claimed. The hypotheses are: H0:μ = 90 H1:μ > 90 What is a type I error in the context of this problemThe Wall Street Journal asked Concur Technologies, Inc., an expense management company, to examine data from 8.3 million expense reports to provide insights regarding business travel expenses. Their analysis of the data showed that New York was the most expensive city. The following table shows the average daily hotel room rate (X) and the average amount spent on entertainment (Y) for a random sample of 9 of the 25 most-visited U.S. cities. These data lead to the estimated regression equation y = 17.49 + 1.0334x. For these data SSE = 1541.4. Use Table 1 of Appendix B. a. Predict the amount spent on entertainment for a particular city that has a daily room rate of $89 (to 2 decimals). b. Develop a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount spent on entertainment for all cities that have a daily room rate of $89 (to 2 decimals). c. The average room rate in Chicago is $128. Develop a 95% prediction interval for the amount spent on entertainment in Chicago (to 2 decimals).
