Suppose Aaron recently purchased an electric car. The person who sold him his new car told him that he could consistently travel 200 mi before having to recharge the car's battery. Aaron began to believe that the car did not travel as far as the company claimed, and he decided to test this hypothesis formally. Aaron drove his car only to work and he recorded the number of miles that his new car traveled before he had to recharge its battery a total of 21 separate times. The table shows the summary of his results. Assume his investigation satisfies all conditions for a one-sample t-test. Mean miles traveled Sample size t-statistic P-value t P 185 21 -0.65 0.262 The results statistically significant at a = 0.05 because P 0.05.

Suppose Aaron recently purchased an electric car. The person who sold him his new car told him that he could consistently travel 200 mi before having to recharge the car's battery.

A dietitian wishes to see if a person’s cholesterol level will change if the diet is supplemented by a certain mineral. Five randomly selected subjects were pre-tested, and then they took the mineral supplement for a 6-week period. The Cholesterol level before and after taking the mineral supplements is shown in the table below. (Cholesterol level is measured in milligrams per deciliter). Table is attached Questions: If X1 is a normal variate with mean 2 and standard deviation 4 and X2 is a normal variate with mean 3 and standard deviation 9, then find E[X1 - 2X2] and Var(X1 - 2X2) The confidence level can be viewed as the amount of risk that an analyst will accept when making a decision (State True or False) You find a 90% confidence interval for true average thiamin content in oats for a given sample as (2.4,7.8) and you interpret the confidence interval as: I can be highly confident that 90% of the oats in the sample will have thiamin content between 2.4 and 7.8 (State True or…
A car company conducts crash tests of its new airbag system to evaluate its safety. One hundred cars are run into a solid concrete barrier at a speed of 35 miles per hour, and the chest compression of a crash test dummy is measured each time. They hope that the average compression if the test were repeated over and over (which we could think of as the population) would be about 2 inches, corresponding to an injury that would be painful but not fatal. In the hundred tests, the average chest compression in the crash test dummies was 2.1 inches, with an SD of 0.2 inches.(a) State the null and alternative hypotheses in terms of the problem.(b) What kind of box model will we use for this problem? A 0-1 box, or a box with other values on the tickets?(c) State the null and alternative hypotheses in terms of the box model (d) Compute the z test statistic and the p-value, using the sample average as your statistic as you compute z (e) What do you conclude?
Jerry is considering opening a new ice cream store at a certain location on State Street in Madison. Jerry conducts some analysis and determines that a given location is acceptable only if the number of pedestrians passing the potential location averages more than 100 per hour. To check if this location is acceptable, Jerry records the number of pedestrians observed for each of 40 hours. Jerry finds that the average number of pedestrians that pass the potential location during each of the 40 hours he was observing, is 105.7 per hour. Jerry assumes that he knows the population standard deviation to be 16. Can Jerry conclude at the 1% significance level that the potential location for the ice cream store is acceptable? a. What is the correct set of hypotheses? Answer: Ho: u = 100 and H1: u> 100 v b. Determine the p-value Answer: 0.0122 c. Interpret the results Answer: There is not enough evidence d.

A pharmaceutical company wants to answer the question of whether it takes LONGER THAN 45 seconds for a drug in pill form to dissolve in the gastric juices of the stomach. A sample was taken of patients who were given the drug in pill form, and the times for the pills to be dissolved were measured. State the HYPOTHESES to test this question.

In a science Fair project, Emilee conducted an experiment in which she tested professional touch therapist to see if they could sense her energy field. She flipped a coin to select either her right hand or her left hand, and then she asked the therapist to identify the selected hand by placing their hand just under Emilee's hand without seeing it and without touching it. Among 319 trials, the touch therapist were correct 149 times. Complete parts a through D. A. Given that Emilee used a coin toss to select either her right hand or left hand what proportion of correct response as would be expected if the touch therapist made random guesses? B. Using Emily's sample results what is the best point estimate of the therapists success rate? C. Using Emily's sample results construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of correct responses made by touch therapists.

The Mickey family wants to travel to Wonderland, which is located 300 km from home.They travelled at a constant speed for 60 km in the first hour.They reached a McDonalds and stayed 30 minutes for lunch.Realizing they are behind schedule, Mickey had to accerlate 40 km in the next 30 minutes to reach the highway.He drove at this constant maximum speed of 100km/h for the next 1.5 hours.After exiting the highway, he had to slow down the car for 50 km during the next 30 minutes to reach the park.They spent 4 hours at the park for some fun.It is time to go home, and Mickey drove at a steady speed for 3 hours.Illustrate a distance vs. time graph to represent the scenario.
In Utah, it is illegal for a person to drive if their blood alcohol level (BAC) is higher than 0.05. For a typical male, their liver can decrease BAC by 0.015 per hour. If a typical male has a BAC of 0.08 at 6pm and consumes no more alcohol, what is his predicted BAC at 7:30pm?When do you predict a typical male in part a. will have a BAC of 0?If Peter had a BAC of 0.08 at 7pm, do you think he will be legal to drive at exactly 9:00pm? Explain your answer in 1-2 sentences
To test a newly formulated protein bar designed to improve running performance, 10 distance runners performed two trials. All the participants ate the new protein formula bar on the first trial. In the second trial, the same participants ate the regular (old) protein bar. Thirty minutes after consuming the bar the participant ran for 2 hours on a treadmill. At the end of the two trials, performed on consecutive days for each participant, the distance each participant ran (in km) was recorded. The data is below.

A psychologist wants to determine the effect of instructions on the time required to solve a mechanical puzzle. Each of 20 volunteers is given the same mechanical puzzle to be solved as rapidly as possible. Before the task, the subjects are randomly assigned in equal numbers to receive two different sets of instructions. One group is told that the task is difficult, the other group is told the task is easy. The score for each subject reflects the time in minutes required to solve the puzzle. Test the research using a two-tailed test and α = .05. Difficult instruction. Easy instruction 5. 13 20. 6 7. 6 23. 5 30. 3 24. 6 9. 10 8.…
