In a study on the ecological impact of malarial infection in the lizard Scelopons occidentalis, researchers caught 15 lizards with the malarial parasite Plasmodium and 15 without. Researchers measured the distance (meters) each lizard could run in two minutes (as a measure of stamina). The following is the code and R output from the "t.test" function. t.test (x-infected, y-uninfected) Welch Two Sample t-test data: infected and uninfected t - -1.9658, df = 27.239, p-value - 0.05959 alternative hypothesis: true difference in means is not equal to 0 95 percent confidence interval: -10.9523489 0.2323489 sample estimates: mean of x mean of y 26.87333 32.23333 What is the upper bound of the confidence interval?

Do various occupational groups differ in their diets? A British study of this question compared 98 drivers and 83 conductors of London double-decker buses. The conductors' jobs require more physical activity. The article reporting the study gives the data as "Mean daily consumption (+ se)." Some of the study results appear below. Drivers Total calories 2821 +44 Alcohol (grams) 0.24 0.06 Conductors 2844 +48 0.39 ± 0.11 Construct a 99% confidence interval for the difference in mean daily alcohol consumption between drivers and conductors.

To test whether the mean time needed to mix a batch of material is the same for machines produced by three manufacturers, the Jacobs Chemical Company obtained the following data on the time (in minutes) needed to mix the material. Compute the values below (to 2 decimals, if necessary). Sum of Squares, Treatment Sum of Squares, Error a. Use these data to test whether the population mean times for mixing a batch of material differ for the three manufacturers. Use a = 0.05. Mean Squares, Treatment 0000 Mean Squares, Error Calculate the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals). 1 17 23 21 19 What conclusion can you draw after carrying out this test? - Select your answer - Manufacturer 2 28 26 31 27 + 3 18 17 21 20 The p-value is - Select your answer - What is your conclusion? - Select your answer - b.

A psychologist believed that as children get older, they engage in more “inactive activities” such as playing computer games, watching TV and surfing the internet. She collected data from 10 children. She recorded the age of each child and the amount of activity (in hours) the child engaged in per week. Age Activity 7 4.3 9 3.2 10 1 13 1.5 12 1.2 15 0.8 9 3 12 4 15 1.5 14 1.9 Using excel, obtain a scatterplot of the data. Discuss the relationship between age and activity based on the scatterplot. Using excel, obtain the simple linear regression linear regression line predicting activity from age. Interpret the intercept and slope of the regression line. By hand, predict the amount of activity for age = 14. By hand, calculate the residual for age = 14 Using excel output, test the null hypothesis that the slope coefficient is zero using the p-value approach. Write one sentence interpreting the meaning of this result. Make sure to report the test statistic…
Speed cameras (SC) are used to reduce the risk of accidents in accident-prone zones in metropolitan cities. To study the effectiveness of speed cameras, transport engineers would like to compare the average number of accidents in junction A (with SC) and junction B (without SC). The number of accidents in 105 weeks in two junctions are provided below. 6 7+ Number of Accidents 0 1 2 3 4 5 Observed frequency 40 20 15 16 10 3 1 0 Number of Accidents 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7+ Junction B without SC Observed frequency 25 24 18 15 18 41 0 Junction A with SC Test the average number of accidents per week in junctions A and B are same at the 5% significance level.
