The body temperatures of two species of geckos were measured. The n1 = 10 geckos from species A had a mean noon temperature of = 32.66°C and a %3D standard deviation of s1 = 0.81°C, whereas the n2 = 11 geckos from species %3D %3D B yielded mean = 30.12°C noon temperature and s2 = 0.75°. To test the %3D %3D hypothesis of no difference versus the alternative of a difference in mean noon temperature at the 5% level of significance, one would need to calculate the t-calculated value. What are the t calculated and t critical values? Calculated = 7.46; Critical = 2.776 Calculated = -3.458; Critical = 2.080 Calculated = 7.46; Critical = 2.093 Calculated = -3.458; Critical = 2.776

A study of parental empathy for sensitivity cues and baby temperament (higher scores mean more empathy) was performed. Let x1 be a random variable that represents the score of a mother on an empathy test (as regards her baby). Let x2 be the empathy score of a father. A random sample of 33 mothers gave a sample mean of x1 = 69.72. Another random sample of 38 fathers gave x2 = 57.68. Assume that Population Standard Deviation1 = 11.97 and Population Standard Deviation2 = 11.86. (a) Let Population Standard Deviation1 be the population mean of x1 and let Population Standard Deviation2 be the population mean of x2. Find a 99% confidence interval for Population Standard Deviation1 – Population Standard Deviation2. (Round your answers to two decimal places.

Suppose a researcher is interested in a new treatment plan for CD4 cell count in immune-compromised patients with HIV. In order to investigate the new drug, the researcher gathers a group of 25 individuals with a mean CD4 count of 335 cells/mm3 after treatment with a standard deviation of 12.1. Test the hypothesis that the mean CD4 count goal is not 329.28 cells/mm3. Perform a two-way directional test, complete the 5 step process and calculate the appropriate confidence interval.

A researcher compares two compounds (1 and 2) used in the manufacture of car tires that are designed to reduce braking distances for SUVS equipped with the tires. The mean braking distance for SUVs equipped with tires made with compound 1 is 71 feet, with a population standard deviation of 11.0. The mean braking distance for SUVs equipped with tires made with compound 2 is 74 feet, with a population standard deviation of 12.3. Suppose that a sample of 70 braking tests are performed for each compound. Using these results, test the claim that the braking distance for SUVS equipped with tires using compound 1 is shorter than the braking distance when compound 2 is used. Let μ₁ be the true mean braking distance corresponding to compound 1 and μ₂ be the true mean braking distance corresponding to compound 2. Use the 0.05 level of significance.

A marine biologist claims that the mean length of mature female pink seaperch is different in fall and winter. A sample of 12 mature female pink seaperch collected in fall has a mean length of 115 millimeters and a standard deviation of 11 millimeters. A sample of 10 mature female pink seaperch collected in winter has a mean length of 106 millimeters and a standard deviation of 8 millimeters. At α=0.01, can you support the marine biologist's claim? Assume the population variances are equal. Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
An engineer working for a tire manufacturer investigates the average life of a new material to be used in the manufacturing process. For this purpose, he builds a sample of 13 tires and tests them in a laboratory until the end of their useful life is reached. The data obtained from the sample are as follows: average of 60897.9 km and standard deviation of 2734.8 km. The engineer would like to demonstrate that the average service life of the tire with the new material exceeds 60,000 km. a) State the null and alternative hypothesis to be stated in this experiment. Test the stated hypotheses using an α = 0.05 What conclusions are reached? b) Find a 95% confidence interval for the average tire life with the new material. Interpret your answer.

3) A study was conducted to see if increasing the substrate concentration has an appreciable effect on the velocity of a chemical reaction. With a substrate concentration of 1.5 moles per liter, the reaction was run 15 times, with an average velocity of 7.5 micromoles per 30 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.5. With a substrate concentration of 2.0 moles per liter, 12 runs were made, yielding an average velocity of 8.8 micromoles per 30 minutes and a sample standard deviation of 1.2. Is there any reason to believe that this increase in substrate concentration causes an increase in the mean velocity of the reaction of more than 0.5 micromole per 30 minutes? Use a 0.01 level of significance and assume the populations to be approximately normally distributed with equal variances
A researcher compares two compounds (1 and 2) used in the manufacture of car tires that are designed to reduce braking distances for SUVs equipped with the tires.

A recent study showed that the average number of sticks of gum a person chews in a week is 11. A college student believes that the guys in his dormitory chew a different amount of gum in a week. He conducts a study and samples 19 of the guys in his dorm and finds that on average they chew 13 sticks of gum in a week with a standard deviation of 1.6. Test the college student's claim at αα=0.01.

The restricted diets are enriched to normal levels by vitamins and protein. Suppose that a sample of 10 mice is fed a normal diet and has anaverage life span of 32.1 months with a standard deviation of 3.2 months, while a sample of 15 mice is fed the restricted diet and has an average life span of 37.6 months with a standard deviation of 2.8 months.

2) The manufacturer of a certain brand of automobiles component claims that mean life of these component is 70 months. An independent agency wants to check this claim and took a random sample of 40 components and found that the mean life for this sample is 67 months with a standard deviation of 5 months. At 5% LOS, can we conclude that the mean life of these component is less than 70 months?
