In its 2016 Auto Reliability Survey, Consumer Reports asked subscribers to report their maintenance and repair costs. Most individuals are aware of the fact that the average annual repair cost for an automobile depends on the age of the automobile. A researcher is interested in finding out whether the variance of the annual repair costs also increases with the age of the automobile. A sample of 26 automobiles 4 years old showed a sample standard deviation for annual repair costs of $180 and a sample of 25 automobiles 2 years old showed a sample standard deviation for annual repair costs of $100. a. State the null and alternative versions of the research hypothesis that the variance in annual repair costs is larger for the older automobiles. Let 4 year old automobiles be represented by population 1. Ho : of less than or equal to H, : o greater than b. At a 0.01 level of significance, what is your conclusion? Calculate the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals). The p-value is less than 0.01 O. Use Table 4 of Appendix B. Conclude that 4 year old automobiles have a larger variance in annual repair costs compared to 2 year old automobiles.

please give some detailed solution and please do not copy other's work,thanks!! According to a union agreement, the mean income for all senior-level assembly-line workers in a large company is $500 per week. A representative of a women's group decides to analyse whether the mean income for female employees matches this norm. For a random sample of 50 female employees, the mean is $410 and the SD is $90. Test with a-0.05, whether the mean income of female employees differs from $500 per week. What is the probability of the Type II error in this case?
Part 1 - Estimate the mean price of regular gasoline in the Dayton area by taking a sample. What is the population you will be studying? Think carefully about how you are going to get a good sample to calculate a sample mean and collect the sample. For example, driving around your neighborhood is an example of a convenience sample and should not be done. Think of a more efficient way to collect gas prices that will also cover the whole Dayton area. Write a paragraph or two explaining how you collected your sample and why you think your sample is representative of Dayton gas prices. What is the sample mean? Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean price of gasoline in the Dayton area. Explain what this confidence interval tells you. Part 2 - Compare your sample estimate to the current mean gas price in the State of Ohio. Find the mean price of gasoline in the State of Ohio. You might try this GasBuddy website.
