Example 5: Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean difference in the mileage obtained for tires with the new material and tires with the old material. Following are the paired differences (new minus old) for each of the 17 riders, chosen at random, who took part in the experiment: 50, 45, 50, 50, 100, 100, 100, -10, 75, -25, 0, 25, 75, 25, 50, 40, 35
Suppose we have the results of a Gallup survey (simple random sampling) which asks participants for their opinions regarding their attitudes toward technology. Based on 1500 interviews, the Gallup report makes confidence statements about its conclusions. If 64% of those interviewed favored modern technology, we can be 95% confident that the percent of those who favored modern technology is a 95% of 64%, or 60.8% b 95% 3% c 64% d 64% 3%

Dr. Kijowski is concerned about student phone use, so she collects information on the number of text messages that each student sent on a particular day. The boxplot below shows the results. Based on the boxplot, which of the following is the most reasonable conclusion? a. There are more people with data values below the median than there are people with data values above the median. Selected:b. There are more people with data values between the first quartile and the median than there are people with data values between the median and the third quartile.This answer is incorrect. c. There are fewer people with data values between the first quartile and the median than there are people with data values between the median and the third quartile. d. There are approximately the same number of people with data values between the first quartile and the minimum as there are people with data values between the third quartile and the maximum. e. The data are less spread out between the…
Annie conducts a study to examine the differences in stress levels between pet owners and non-pet owners. She conducts a two-tailed test and tells that she rejected the null hypothesis. Therefore, which of these statements is true? Question 8 options: Pet owners have more stress than non-pet owners. Pet owners have less stress than non-pet owners. Pet owners' and non-pet owners' stress levels differ, but it is not known how they differ. Pet owners' and non-pet owners' stress levels do not differ.

JOB x LIFE SATISF, PART 5 of 6. What is the observed F score value for these scores? A researcher is interested in the effect of employment on life satisfaction. He selects a random sample of 12 adults who are employed full time, employed part time, temporarily unemployed, or chronically unemployed. He provided a scale that assessed their life satisfaction on a scale that ranges from 0 (very dissatisfied) to 80 (very satisfied). His results are as follows: What is the observed F score value for these scores?
ASK YOUR TEACHER Nationally, about 11% of the total U.S. wheat crop is destroyed each year by hail.t An insurance company is studying wheat hail damage claims in a county in Colorado. A random sample of 16 claims in the county reported the percentage of their wheat lost to hail. 14 7 10 11 12 19 14 11 9 8 23 19 13 7 10 7 The sample mean is x = 12.1%. Let x be a random variable that represents the percentage of wheat crop in that county lost to hail. Assume that x has a normal distribution and a = 5.0%. Do these data indicate that the percentage of wheat crop lost to hail in that county is different (either way) from the national mean of 11%? Use a = 0.01. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. Will you use a left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed test?
