6. Accidents on highways are one of the main causes of death or injury in developing countries and the weather conditions have an impact on the rates of death and injury. In foggy, rainy, and sunny conditions, 1/4, 1/8, and 1/21 of the accidents result in death, respectively. Sunny conditions occur 60% of the time, while rainy and foggy conditions each occur 20% of the time. Given that an accident without deaths occurred, what is the conditional probability that it was foggy at the time?
A federal regulatory agency is investigating an advertised claim that a certain device can increase the gasoline mileage of cars (mpg). Ten such devices are purchased and installed in cars belonging to the agency. Gasoline mileage for each of the cars is recorded both before and after installation. The data are recorded here. Car 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 n x s Before (mpg) 19.1 29.9 17.6 20.2 23.5 26.8 21.7 25.7 19.5 28.2 10 23.22 4.25 After (mpg) 25.8 23.7 28.7 25.4 32.8 19.2 29.6 22.3 25.7 20.1 10 25.33 4.25 Change (mpg) 6.7 −6.2 11.1 5.2 9.3 −7.6 7.9 −3.4 6.2 −8.1 10 2.11 7.54 (a) The cars in the study appear to have grossly different mileages before the devices were installed. Use the change data to test whether there has been a significant gain in mileage after the devices were installed. Use ? = .05. H0: ?after ?before Ha: ?after ?before t = p-value
A researcher is conducting a test to see if handedness (right or left) affects the speed at which people perform a particular task. The researcher only knows the order in which the contestants finished. When the data are summarized (with R for right-handed and L for left-handed) the order of finishing (fastest to slowest) was: R, R, R, R, L, R, L, R, L, L Is there statistically significant evidence of an effect of handedness on the speed? Test statistic: The name of the statistical table, degrees of freedom (if appropriate), and the numerical value of the critical value for this test: P-value: Circle an appropriate conclusion: • There is significant evidence that left-handed contestants will finish the task faster. • We cannot reject the hypothesis that handedness has no effect on the time to finish the task. • There is significant evidence that right-handed contestants will finish the task faster.
A paper concluded that there was a correlation between refined sugar consumption (calories per person per day) and annual rate of major depression (cases per 100 people) based on data from six countries. The following data were read from a graph that appeared in the раper.

(Round your answer to four decimal places.) r = 0.9428 Interpret the correlation coefficient for this data set. O There is a weak, positive linear relationship between depression rate and sugar consumption. O There is no linear relationship between depression rate and sugar consumption.

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…
