As part of an investigation into the collapse of the roof of a building, a testing laboratory is given all the available bolts that connected the steel structure at 3 different positions on the roof. The forces required to shear each of these bolts (coded values) are shown in Table Q4. Construct a hypothesis and perform an analysis to test whether the differences among the sample means at the 3 positions are significant at the 0.05 level of significance.

Cadmium, a heavy metal, is toxic to animals. Mushrooms, however, are able to absorb and accumulate cadmium at high concentrations. Some governments have a safety limit for cadmium in dry vegetables at 0.56 part per million (ppm). A research team measured the cadmium levels in a random sample of edible mushrooms, where the hypothesis test is to decide whether the mean cadmium level in the sample is greater than the governments' safety limit. The null and alternative hypotheses are H0: μ=0.56 ppm, Ha: μ>0.56 ppm. Complete parts (a) through (e) below. d. Now suppose that the results of carrying out the hypothesis test lead to nonrejection of the null hypothesis. Classify that conclusion by error type or as a correct decision if in fact the mean cadmium level in that type of mushrooms equals the safety limit of 0.56 ppm. Choose the correct answer below. A. type I error B. correct decision because a true null hypothesis is not rejected C. correct decision because…

The value of the test statistic is A) 3.6 B) 1.8 C) 0.45
Four brands of lightbulbs are being considered for use in the final assembly area of the Ford F-150 truck plant in Dearborn, Michigan. The director of purchasing asked for samples of 100 from each manufacturer. The numbers of acceptable and unacceptable bulbs from each manufacturer are shown below. At the .05 significance level, is there a difference in the quality of the bulbs? (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.) H0: There is no relationship between quality and manufacturer. H1: There is a relationship. 1. Reject H0 if X2 >____ 2. X2 = ____ (Reject or Do Not Reject) H0. Ther (is a/is no) relationship between quality and manufacturer.
Six different machines are being considered for use in manufacturing rubber seals. The machines are being compared with respect to tensile strength of the product. A random sample of four seals from each machine is used to determine whether the mean tensile strength varies from machine to machine.

An automotive company is conducting a survey concerning consumer buying preferences of a particular truck. The company wants to know whether the truck appearance, miles per gallon (MPG), or fixed price most influenced the consumer’s buying decision. A population sample of 500 individuals, both male and female, will be surveyed. State the null and alternative hypothesis if your were to test whether there is any difference in proportion using the three different criterion to purchase the given car based on gender.
A paint manufacturer wishes to compare the drying times of two different types of paint. Independent random samples of 11 cans of type A and 9 cans of type B were selected and applied to similar surfaces. The drying times (in hours) were recorded. The summary statistics are given in the image below. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the mean drying time for paint type A is longer than the mean drying time for paint type B. Find each: a) Set up (including Null and Alternative Hypothesis) b) Test Statistic c) P-value d) Conclusion (reject or accept H0).
A scientist selected a random sample of seven varieties of peach ice cream to investigate the relationship between the density, in pounds per cubic inch, of the varieties of ice cream and the percent concentration of peaches in the ice cream. Assuming all conditions for inference are met, which of the following significance tests should be used to investigate whether there is convincing evidence at the 0.05 level of significance that a greater percent of peaches in the ice cream is associated with an increase in the density of the ice cream? A A two-sample t-test for a difference between means B C D E A chi-square test of independence A linear regression t-test for slope A two-sample z-test for a difference between proportions A matched pairs t-test for a mean difference S
