Fran is training for her first marathon, and she wants to know if there is a significant difference between the mean number of miles run each week by group runners and individual runners who are training for marathons. She interviews 32 randomly selected people who train in groups, and finds that they run a mean of 49.0 miles per week. Assume that the population standard deviation from group runners is known to be 4.2 miles per week. She also interviews a random sample of 30 people who train on their own and finds that they run a mean of 47.2 miles per week. Assume that the population standard deviation for people who run by themselves is 4.8 miles per week. Test the claim at the 0.05 level of significance.

A researcher claims that at least 10% of all football helmets have manufacturing flaws that could potentially cause injury to the wearer. A sample of 200 helmets revealed that 16 helmets contained such defects. Does this finding support the researcher's claim? Use a=0.01. What is the critical value ? Round-off final answer to two decimal places.
Wrinkle recovery angle and tensile strength are the two most important characteristics for evaluating the performance of crosslinked cotton fabric. An increase in the degree of crosslinking, as determined by ester carboxyl band absorbance, improves the wrinkle resistance of the fabric (at the expense of reducing mechanical strength). The accompanying data on x = absorbance and y = wrinkle resistance angle was read from a graph in the paper "Predicting the Performance of Durable Press Finished Cotton Fabric with Infrared Spectroscopy".† x 0.115 0.126 0.183 0.246 0.282 0.344 0.355 0.452 0.491 0.554 0.651 y 334 342 355 363 365 372 381 392 400 412 420 Here is regression output from Minitab: Predictor Constant absorb S = 3.60498 Coef 321.878 156.711 SOURCE Regression Residual Error Total SE Coef 2.483 6.464 R-Sq = 98.5% DF 1 9 10 SS 7639.0 117.0 7756.0 T 129.64 24.24 0.000 0.000 R-Sq (adj) = 98.3% MS 7639.0 13.0 F P 587.81 (a) Does the simple linear regression model appear to be…
