In concrete, the porosity y (in %) is related to the unit weight x (in lbs/cf), with low porosityassociated with larger unit weights. A sample of n = 15 concrete samples were taken and thefollowing results tabulated:x-values ranged from 99.0 - 120.0 lbs / cfy-values ranged from 28.8 -10.8 %Given: SSE = 11.43883Compute the point estimate for the standard deviation, σ (to 3 decimal places).

Japan's high population density has resulted in a multitude of resource-usage problems. One especially serious difficulty concerns waste removal. The article "Innovative Sludge Handling Through Pelletization Thickening"t reported the development of a new compression machine for processing sewage sludge. An important part of the investigation involved relating the moisture content of compressed pellets (y, in %) to the machine's filtration rate (x, in kg-DS/m/hr).

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States, N. Ehlers measured the difference in corneal thickness (in microns) between the two eyes of eight patients. Each patient had one eye that had glaucoma and one eye that was normal. The difference was measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma. Corneal thickness is important because it can mask an accurate reading of eye pressure. Use ? = .05 H0: μd=0 H1: μd≠0 T statistic: t = 1.053, P value = 0.327 Degrees of Freedom n-1 = 8-1= 7 critical value 2.3646 If t is less than 2.3646, or greater than 2.3646, reject the null hypothesis Level of significance: α=0.05 question: what a type 1 error and type 2 error would mean.

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States, N. Ehlers measured the difference in corneal thickness (in microns) between the two eyes of eight patients. Each patient had one eye that had glaucoma and one eye that was normal. The difference was measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma. Corneal thickness is important because it can mask an accurate reading of eye pressure. Use ? = .05. Q) If a participant has the same corneal thickness in their normal eye as the eye with Glaucoma, what would be the value for difference: measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma.
