Assignment 2: An experiment was conducted to compare the effects of three methods of a particular agricultural system on cocoa production. Four similar cocoa trees were selected and each allocated to a difference practice of that agricultural system. The production in (kg) during a five-year period is shown below: Year X Y 1 69 18 46 65 19 49 3 66 17 52 4 67 12 45 5 64 21 43 Using ANOVA table, test whether there is a significant evidence at 5% significance level in the masses of the crops (i) between the years (ii) between the methods

A study compared three display panels used by air traffic controllers. Each display panel was tested for four different simulated emergency conditions. Twenty-four highly trained air traffic controllers were used in the study. Two controllers were randomly assigned to each display panel—emergency condition combination. The time (in seconds) required to stabilize the emergency condition was recorded. The following table gives the resulting data and the JMP output of a two-way ANOVA of the data.

In a bumper test, three test vehicles of each of three types of autos were crashed into a barrier at 5 mph, and the resulting damage was estimated. Crashes were from three angles: head-on, slanted, and rear-end. The results are shown below. Research questions: Is the mean repair cost affected by crash type and/or vehicle type?

Booted Eagles. The rare booted eagle of western Europe was the focus of a study by S. Suarez et al. to identify optimal nesting habitat for this raptor. According to their paper “Nesting Habitat Selection by Booted Eagles (Hieraaetus pennatus) and Implications for Management” (Journal of Applied Ecology, Vol. 37, pp. 215–223), the distances of such nests to the nearest marshland are normally distributed with mean 4.66 km and standard deviation 0.75 km. Let Y be the distance of a randomly selected nest to the nearest marshland. Determine and interpret a. P(Y >5). b. P(3 ≤ Y ≤ 6).
In order to compare the life expectancies of three different brands of tires, 5 tires of each brand were randomly selected and were subjected to standard wear-testing procedures. Information regarding the three brands is shown below. Stone Bridge Michelle Nice Year Mean mileage (in 1000 miles) 42 46 41 Sample variance 3 2 5 Sample Size 5 5 5 Use the above data and test to see if the mean mileage for all three brands of tires is the same. Let α = .05. Complete the ANOVA table and show the details of calculation. a) State the null and alaternative hypotheses to be tested. b) Complete the table. The null hypothesis is to be tested at 95% confidence. You need to show all calculations. What do you conclude?

A study was conducted using 50 mobile network users who volunteered to participate in a research as the entry of the third telco player in the country is on its way. One of the variables studied was the data connection speed in the previous month. Based on the data in the following table, is there a significant difference between the connectivity speeds of the two present mobile networks during the previous month? Use a 5% level of significance and assume that the population variances are equal. 1. The alternative hypothesis for the test would be? 2. The alternative hypothesis for the test would be? 3. What is the computed value of the test statistic? 4. What would be your decision?
A researcher is interested in seeing what effect a particular type of drug has on an intelligence test, depending on the time of day that the pill is administered. The researcher computes a two-way ANOVA and plots the resulting cell means on the graph at right. Assuming that any obvious differences are statistically significant Is there a main effect for type of pill? Is there a main effect for time of day? Is there an interaction? 4. Describe the findings of the study in everyday terms
The calculations for a factorial experiment involving four levels of factor A, three levels of factor B, and three replications resulted in the following data: SST = 280, SSA = 26, SSB = 23, SSAB = 175. Set up the ANOVA table and test for any significant main effects and any interaction effect. Use a = .05.
The milk yield from two breeds of goats, A and B, is categorised as low, medium or high. One hundred goats in a random sample are classified according to breed and milk yield. The results are summarised in the table below. i. Explain the difference between a test of independence and a test of homogeneity ii. Perform a chi squared test, at the 95% of significance level, to determine whether there is an association between the breed of goats and the milk yield.
Q) A doctor wants to try three different techniques to investigate the blood pressure of people diagnosed with high blood pressure. The first group of subjects takes medication, the second group does exercises, and the third group follows a special diet. A month later, the reduction in each person's blood pressure is recorded. At 5% significance level, test the claim that there is no difference among the means. The data are shown. Medication Exercise Diet 10 5 12 8. 9. 9. 3 12 15 8. 13 2 4
An auditor for a local court system is tasked with comparing the rulings of two judges. The auditor needs to determine if Judge Hughes issues shorter sentences than Judge Wilson. The data below are the sentence lengths, in months, issued by each judge in their last twelve cases that dealt with operating a motor vehicle without a license. Test the claim that Judge Hughes issues shorter sentences than Judge Wilson for this particular type of case at the 0.05 level of significance. Let Judge Hughes' sentences be Population 1 and let Judge Wilson's sentences be Population 2. Assume that both populations are approximately normal and that the population variances are equal.
