Ishikawa et al. (Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2012) studied the adhesion of various biofilms to solid surfaces for possible use in environmental technologies. Adhesion assay is conducted by measuring absorbance at A590. Suppose that for the bacterial strain Acinetobacter, five measurements gave readings of 2.69, 5.76, 2.67, 1.62 and 4.12 dyne-cm2. Assume that the standard deviation is known to be 0.66 dyne-cm2. Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean adhesion. Use the Scientific Method of Answering (Given, Required, Formula and Solution).

It is known that the tensile strength of a plastic increases as a function of the time it is subjected to heat treatment. The table below shows the data of the plastic subjected to heat treatment. Determine these data by using the "lagrange interpolation" method by approximating the functions of the lagrange multipliers of L0 , L1 , L2 , L3 and L4 to a 4th order curve. Calculate the tensile strengths of 1.7321 and 2.2361 seconds for each lagrange factor in the function equations of the lagrange multipliers.
A consumer protection magazine was interested in comparing tire purchased from two different companies that each claimed their tires would last 40,000 miles. A random sample of 10 tires of each brand was obtained and tested under simulated road conditions. The number of miles until the tread thickness reached a specific depth was recorded for all tires. The data are given next(in thousands miles)Brand 138.939.742.339.539.635.63639.237.639.5Brand 244.646.948.741.537.533.143.436.532.542.0a.

Aviation and high-altitude physiology is a specialty in the study of medicine. Let x = partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli (air cells in the lungs) when breathing naturally available air. Let y = partial pressure when breathing pure oxygen. The (x, y) data pairs correspond to elevations from 10,000 feet to 30,000 feet in 5000 foot intervals for a random sample of volunteers. Although the medical data were collected using airplanes, they apply equally well to Mt. Everest climbers (summit 29,028 feet).

a spectrophotometer used for measuring CO concentration [ppm (parts per million) by volume] is checked for accuracy by taking readings on a manufactured gas (called span gas) in which the CO concentration is very precisely controlled at 70 ppm. If the readings suggest that the spectrophotometer is not working properly, it will have to be recalibrated. Assume that if it is properly calibrated, measured concentration for span gas samples is normally distributed. On the basis of the six readings—69, 85, 72, 68, 77, and 82—is calibration needed? Carry out a test of the relevant hypotheses using alpha = .05.
Fluid inclusions are microscopic volumes of fluid that are trapped in rock during rock formation. The article "Fluid Inclusion Study of Metamorphic Gold-Quartz Veins in Northwestern Nevada, U.S.A.: Characteristics of Tectonically Induced Fluid" (S. Cheong, Geosciences Journal, 2002:103-115) describes the geochemical properties of fluid inclusions in several different veins in northwest Nevada. The following table presents data on the maximum salinity (% NaCi by weight) of inclusions in several rock samples from several areas. Salinity Area Humboldt Range Santa Rosa Range 9.2 10.0 11.2 8.8 5.2 6.1 8.3 Ten Mile 7.9 6.7 9.5 7.3 10.4 7.0 Antelope Range Pine Forest Range 6.7 8.4 9.9 10.5 16.7 17.5 15.3 20.0 Can you conclude that the salinity differs among the areas?
