Do campers with trailers really get better mileage per gallon on the highway? The table shows results from a study of the MPG (miles per gallon) of campers with trailers both in the mountains and on desert roads. Assume that the two samples are randomly selected, independent, the population standard deviations are not know and not considered equal. At the 0.05 significance level, test the claim that the mpg on desert roads is better than in the mountains.

In a large section of a statistics class, the points for the final exam are normally distributed, with a mean of 74 and a standard deviation of 8. Grades are assigned such that the top 10% receive A's, the next 20% received B's, the middle 40% receive C's, the next 20% receive D's, and the bottom 10% receive F's. Find the lowest score on the final exam that would qualify a student for an A, a B, a C, and a D. The lowest score that would qualify a student for an A is nothing. (Round up to the nearest integer as needed.) The lowest score that would qualify a student for a B is nothing. (Round up to the nearest integer as needed.) The lowest score that would qualify a student for a C is nothing. (Round up to the nearest integer as needed.) The lowest score that would qualify a student for a D is nothing. (Round up to the nearest integer as needed.)

Fuel efficiency of Prius: Fueleconomy.gov, the official US government source for fuel economy information, allows users to share gas mileage information on their vehicles. The histogram below shows the distribution of gas mileage in miles per gallon (MPG) from 14 users who drive a 2012 Toyota Prius. The sample mean is 53.3 MPG and the standard deviation is 5.2 MPG. Note that these data are user estimates and since the source data cannot be verified, the accuracy of these estimates are not guaranteed. (a) The EPA claims that a 2012 Prius gets 50 MPG (city and highway mileage combined). Do these data provide strong evidence against this estimate for drivers who participate on fueleconomy.gov? The test statistic is: __________________(please round to two decimal places)The p-value:___________________________ for this hypothesis test is: (please round to four decimal places)(c) Please comment on the primary thing that is wrong about the following statement: There is sufficient evidence…
Choose the appropriate statistical test. When computing, be sure to round each answer as indicated. A dentist wonders if depression affects ratings of tooth pain. In the general population, using a scale of 1-10 with higher values indicating more pain, the average pain rating for patients with toothaches is 6.8. A sample of 30 patients that show high levels of depression have an average pain rating of 7.1 (variance 0.8). What should the dentist determine? 1. Calculate the estimated standard error. (round to 3 decimals). [st.error] 2. What is thet-obtained? (round to 3 decimals). 3. What is the t-cv? (exact value) 4. What is your conclusion? Only type "Reject" or Retain"
This question applies to the next 3 MCQs. Wire wound resistors are being custom made for a Design House with a maximum specification of 305.70 ohms and a minimum specification of 304.55 ohms. If the resistance is higher it can be reworked, if lower they must be scrapped. The resistors manufactured follow a normal distribution with a mean of 305.2 ohms and a standard deviation of 0.25 ohms. What percentage of the resistors are scrap (approximately)? 5% 2% 0.1% 0.5% 1%
In a large section of a statistics class, the points for the final exam are normally distributed, with a mean of 73 and a standard deviation of 8. Grades are assigned such that the top 10% receive A's, the next 20% received B's, the middle 40% receive C's, the next 20% receive D's, and the bottom 10% receive F's.

In the class of 2019, more than 1.6 million students took the SAT. The distribution of scores on the math section (out of 800) is approximately normal with a mean of 528 and standard deviation of 117. What proportion of students earned scores between 500 and 600 on the SAT math test?
In a repeated measures ANOVA, the MSerror = 30.68 tells us that a. Not enough information to determine b. the average difference due to time is 30.68 units c. the average variance in this study is 30.68 units d. the average variance within the set of scores for a given subject is 30.68 units
In a study of birth order and intelligence, IQ tests were given to 18- and 19-year-old men to estimate the size of the difference, if any, between the mean IQs of firstborn sons and secondborn sons. The following data for 10 firstborn sons and 10 secondborn sons are consistent with the means and standard deviations reported in the article. It is reasonable to assume that the samples come from populations that are approximately normal. Can you conclude that the mean IQ of firstborn sons is greater than the mean IQ of secondborn sons? Let μ1 denote the mean IQ of firstborn sons and μ2 denote the mean IQ of secondborn sons. Use the α = 0.01 level and the P-value method with the table. Firstborn 128 101 128 112 121 105 122 98 106 108 Secondborn 121 125 110 107 114 93 80 94 91 83 Part(a): State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. H0: H1: This is a _____…

A statistician changes her level of significance from .001 to .05. What impact will this change have on her risk of making a Type I and Type II error? Is the change in the level of significance a good decision? Why or why not?
