- An economist studying inflation in electricity prices in 2018 and 2019 believes that the average price of electricity, even after adjusting for inflation, changed between these two years. To test his claim, he samples 9 different counties and records the average price of electricity in each county from each year. He then adjusts the prices for inflation. His results are given in the following table. Test the economist’s claim at the 0.10 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal. Let prices in 2018 be Population 1 and prices in 2019 be Population 2.

What effect would this increase have on the polling agency's estimate of the proportion of U.S. adults in favor of repealing Obamacare, assuming the true proportion in favor remained constant? (A) A reduction in the variability of the estimate (B) An increase in the variability of the estimate (C) A reduction in the bias of the estimate (D) An increase in the bias of the estimate (E) A reduction in both the variability and the bias of the estimateWater availability is of prime importance in the life cycle of most reptiles. To determine the rate of evaporative water loss of a certain species of lizard at a particular desert site, 34 such lizards were randomly collected, weighed and placed under the appropriate experimental conditions. After 24 hours, each lizard was removed, weighed, and its total water loss was calculated by subtracting its body weight after treatment from its initial body weight. Previous studies have shown that the relative frequency distribution of water loss for this species of lizard has a mean of 3.1 grams and a s.d. of 0.8 gram. a) What is the approximate sampling distribution of x , the mean water loss of the 34 lizards
- Chronic wasting disease is a fatal disease of deer and elk believed to be caused by transmissible prions. The origin, development, and spread of chronic wasting disease in free-ranging deer and elk populations are not well understood. One factor directly related to the control of chronic wasting disease is the incubation period in free-ranging animals. Boxplots are shown for estimates of the incubation period of chronic wasting disease in North American deer and elk between 2011 and 2016. Incubation period of chronic wasting disease in North American deer and elk 80- 70- 60- 50- 40- 30- 20- 10- 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 YearCan you guys help me on this? Thank you!Will improving customer service result in higher stock prices for the companies providing the better services? "when a company's satisfaction score has improved over the prior years results and is above the national average (currently 75.7), studies show its shares have a good chance of outperforming the broad stock market in the long run." The following satisfaction scores of three companies for the 4th quarters of two previous years were obtained from the American Customer satisfaction index. Assume that the scores are based on a poll of 55 customers from each company. Because the polling has been done for several years, the standard deviation can be assumed to equal 7 points in each case.

- HDI revisited The United Nations DevelopmentProgramme (UNDP) uses the Human Development Index (HDI) in an attempt to summarize in one number the prog-ress in health, education, and economics of a country. The number of phone subscribers per 100 people is positivelyassociated with economic progress in a country. Can thenumber of phone subscribers be used to predict the HDI?Here is a scatterplot of HDI against phone subscribers:a) Explain why fitting a linear model to these data mightbe misleading.b) If you fit a linear model to the data, what do you think ascatterplot of residuals vs. predicted HDI will look like?An economist studying inflation in electricity prices in 2018 and 2019 believes that the average price of electricity, even after adjusting for inflation, changed between these two years. To test his claim, he samples 9 different counties and records the average price of electricity in each county from each year. He then adjusts the prices for inflation. His results are given in the following table. Test the economist’s claim at the 0.05 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal.

In individuals with this syndrome, cardiovascular disease is a common cause of death in the teenage years. A clinical study examined the effect of treatment with the drug lonafarnib on a number of physiological outcomes. The researchers measured the pulse wave velocity (PWV) of 18 children diagnosed with progeria and recruited worldwide. The study reports that the mean PWV of 18 children diagnosed with progeria is 12.44 m/s, and the standard deviation is 3.638 m/s. Assuming that PWV is normally distributed, is there significant evidence that the mean PWV of children with progeria is abnormally high (i.e. greater than 6.6 m/s)? Let � (pronounced as "mu") be the true mean PWV of children with progeria. What are the two competing hypotheses? ["", "", "", ""] What is the test statistic? ["", "", "", ""] What is the p value?

- 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…An economist studying inflation in electricity prices in 2018 and 2019 believes that the average price of electricity, even after adjusting for inflation, changed between these two years. To test his claim, he samples 9 different counties and records the average price of electricity in each county from each year. He then adjusts the prices for inflation. His results are given in the following table. Test the economist's claim at the 0.02 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal.
