(c) Suppose the manager agrees to pay each employee a $50 bonus if they meet a certain goal. On a typical Saturday, the oil-change facility will perform 45 oil changes between 10 A.M. and 12 P.M. Treating this as a random sample, at what mean oil-change time would there be a 10% chance of being at or below? This will be the goal established by the manager. There would be a 10% chance of being at or below minutes. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

2-Proportion Test

In a 2-proportion test, two separate proportions are measured at the same time, and their similarity is evaluated. It is also known as a 2-proportion z-test, and a comparison of two different proportions is done in this method.

The shape of the distribution of the time required to get an oil change at a 15-minute oil-change facility is unknown. However, records indicate that the mean time is
16.3 minutes, and the standard deviation is 4.6 minutes. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

(c) Suppose the manager agrees to pay each employee a $50 bonus if they meet a certain goal. On a typical Saturday, the oil-change facility will perform 45 oil
changes between 10 A.M. and 12 P.M. Treating this as a random sample, at what mean oil-change time would there be a 10% chance of being at or below? This will be
the goal established by the manager.

QUESTION 13 You are interested in seeing whether emotions impact decision making. You have three groups--a happy group, a sad group, and a neutral group. For the happy group there are 5 participants and the mean risky decision making score 5.0 with a standard deviation of 0.7. For the sad group there are 5 participants and the mean risky decision making score 5.4 with a standard deviation of 1.1. For the neutral group there are 5 participants and the mean risky decision making score 5.8 with a standard deviation of 2.8. The sum of squares between samples is equal to 1.6. The sum of squares within samples is equal to 38.0. You calculated the f-ratio above. The corresponding p-value for the f-ratio you calculated is p = 0.78.

Apply the t-interval procedure to these data to find a 90% confidence interval for the mean price of all one-half-carat diamonds. Interpret your result. (Note: — x = $1964.7 and s = $206.5.)b. Obtain a normal probability plot, a boxplot, a histogram, and a stem-and-leaf diagram of the data.c. Based on your graphs from part (b), is it reasonable to apply the t-interval procedure as you did in part (a)? Explain your answer.

Does it seem to you that people tend to be absent more on some days of the week than on others? Recently, a major biotechnology firm collected data with the hope of determining whether or not its employees were more likely to be absent on some weekdays than on others. The firm examined a random sample of 130 employee absences. The distribution of these 130 absences is shown in the table below. The observed frequency for each category (each weekday) is shown in the first row of numbers. The second row of numbers contains the frequencies expected for a sample of 130 employees if employee absences at the firm are equally likely on each of the five weekdays. The bottom row of numbers contains the following value for each of the categories.

. A developmental psychologist would like to determine how much fine motor skill improves for children from age 3 to age 4. He takes a random sample of 9 three-year old children and gives each a manual dexterity test that measures fine motor skill. He tests these same children a year later, when they are each four-years old. Higher scores on this test indicate better fine motor skills. Scores are recorded in the table below. Is there a significant difference in the motor skills from age three to four? Test with an α = 0.05. What type of error is possible based on the outcome? What is the mean motor skill score for the children at age three? What is the mean motor skill score for the children at age four? Explain the advantage of using a dependent measures design over the independent measures design. What are some disadvantages?
