Extraction of metal from ore becomes more expensive as the variance in ore grade increases. A sample
of 26 cores drilled from prospective mine site 1 provides a sample variance of 48 and a sample of 16
cores drilled from prospective mine site 2 provides a sample variance of 20. If the variances associated
with the mines are equal, the company will select the mining site with larger reserve. However, if the
sample data of drilled cores from the two proposed mining sites indicate significant difference between
the variances, the company may want to give special consideration to the site with lower variance.

- Two suppliers manufacture a plastic gear used in laser printer.The spreadsheet records the accuracy of 100 students spread out across 10 groups (or courses). ACCURACY is a measure of how well a student accurately inputs data into SAS; higher values indicate superior accuracy while lower values indicate inferior accuracy. GROUP is simply the course number assigned to the student—it is also known as a factor level. Various statistical tests assume the ten levels may have differing means of accuracy; however, they also assume that all levels have the same variance. But, how the heck do we know that? This means we must check to see whether all levels have the same variance. Do all ten groups exhibit equal variances? How do you know? Are any of the groups different than the others? How do you know? Perform Levene’s test and write it up.

The purpose of the questionnaire is to track students' perception of their progress at different points in the semester. Scores at Time 1 (beginning of the semester), Time 2 (midterm), and Time 3 (end of semester) are compared against one another. What type of analysis of variance would be appropriate for examining the results from this dataset?

He wants to see if the new book has an effect on the exam average for Exam 3. He knows that the Exam 3 mean for all students who have taken his statistic course over the past 10 years is 77.2. He collects some data from a sample of 9 students and finds that the Exam 3 mean for his Fall 2013 statistics students is 81.7 with a variance of 32.49.Measure effect size using percentage of varianceA light bulb manufacturer wants to compare the mean lifetimes of two of its light bulbs, model A and model B. Independent random samples of the two models were taken. Analysis of 10 bulbs of model A showed a mean lifetime of 1347 hours and a standard deviation of 92 hours. Analysis of 13 bulbs of model B showed a mean lifetime of 1380 hours and a standard deviation of 111 hours. Assume that the populations of lifetimes for each model are normally distributed and that the variances of these populations are equal. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference −μ1μ2 between the mean lifetime μ1 of model A bulbs and the mean lifetime μ2 of model B bulbs. Then find the lower limit and upper limit of the 95% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your responses to at least two decimal places. Upper Limit Lower Limit:
- A clinical psychologist wants to compare the efficacy of medication versus Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. He specifically believes that medication will reduce the frequency of suicidal ideation more than Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. He finds that the medicated group (n = 22) reports an average of 1.84 suicidal thoughts, with a sample variance = 9.01. The CBT group (n = 22) reports an average of 3.92 with a sample variance of 9.13. What would be the test statisitc the clinican observes given this data? (Be sure to round your answer to the second decimal place). "It is hypothesized that the total sales of a corporation should vary more in an industry with active price competition than in one with duopoly and tacit collusion. In a study of the merchant ship production industry it was found that in 4 years of active price competition, the variance of company A’s total sales was 114.09. In the following 7 years, during which there was duopoly and tacit collusion, this variance was 16.08. Assume that the data can be regarded as an independent random sample from two normal distributions. 1. Test, at the 5% level, the null hypothesis that the two population variances are equal against the alternative that they are not equal.In a comparison between the mean waiting time of the patients in the hospitals of Giza and Alexandria governments the minister of Health randomly selected 60 hospitals from Giza government and their mean waiting time was 30 minutes and the previous reports showed that the variance was 10 minutes.

- One study claims that the variance in the resting heart rates of smokers is different than the variance in the resting heart rates of nonsmokers. A medical student decides to test this claim. The sample variance of resting heart rates, measured in beats per minute, for a random sample of 9 smokers is 480.7. The sample variance for a random sample of 9 nonsmokers is 131.6. Assume that both population distributions are approximately normal and test the study’s claim using a 0.10 level of significance. Does the evidence support the study’s claim? Let smokers be Population 1 and let nonsmokers be Population 2. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below.

To insure uniformity in their product, the variances of the weights of the bottles at the two plants should be equal. But Stephanie, the company's vice president of quality assurance, suspects that the variance at bottling plant A is more than the variance at bottling plant B. To test her suspicions, Stephanie samples 37 bottles from bottling plant A and 33 bottles from bottling plant B, with the following results (in ounces): Bottling Plant A: 12.4, 12.4, 13.4, 14.3, 12.7, 12.7, 13.7, 12.4, 12.8, 12.4, 12.9, 12.7, 12.8, 13.3, 13.8, 12.7, 12.4, 11.9, 12.9, 13, 13.1, 12.4, 12.7, 12.6, 12.5, 13.3, 12.2, 13.3, 12.8, 12.7, 13.2, 13.1, 11.7, 13, 12.3, 13.1, 12.4 Bottling Plant B: 12.9, 12, 13.4, 12.4, 12.4, 12.9, 12.7, 12.1, 11.4, 13.1, 14.1, 12.5, 12.7, 11.5, 12.3, 12.7, 13.7, 12.6, 13.9, 12.7, 12, 12.5, 11.7, 13.6, 11.4, 13.6, 14, 12, 11.5, 12, 11.7, 13, 11.8 Perform a hypothesis test using a 3% level of…UIIT is giving two training programmes.
