The burning rates of two different solid-fuel propellants used in air crew escape systems arebeing studied. It is known that both propellants have approximately the same standard deviationof burning rate; that is ₁ = ₂ = 3 centimeters per second. Two random samples of n₁ = 20and n₂ = 20 specimens are tested; the sample mean burning rates are x₁ = 18 centimeters persecond and x₂ = 24 centimeters per second.Use a = 0.10. Construct a 90% confidence interval on the difference in means.O a. None among the choicesb. Cl on the mean: -7.86 <= u1 - u2 <= -4.14O c. Cl on the mean: -7.57 <= u1-u2 <= -4.43O d. Cl on the mean: -8.45 <= u1-u2 <= -3.55

The "spring-like effect" in a golf club could be determined by measuring the coefficient of restitution (the ratio of the outbound velocity to the inbound velocity of a golf ball fired at the clubhead). Twelve randomly selected drivers produced by two clubmakers are tested and the coefficient of restitution measured. The data follow: Club 1: 0.8406, 0.8104, 0.8234, 0.8198, 0.8235, 0.8562, 0.8123, 0.7976, 0.8184, 0.8265, 0.7773, 0.7871 Club 2: 0.8305, 0.7905, 0.8352, 0.8380, 0.8145, 0.8465, 0.8244, 0.8014, 0.8309, 0.8405, 0.8256, 0.8476 Test the hypothesis that both brands of ball have equal mean overall distance.

A photoconductor film is manufactured at a nominal thickness of 25 mils. The product engineer wishes to increase the mean speed of the film, and believes that this can be achieved by reducing the thickness of the film to 20 mils. Eight samples of each film thickness are manufactured in a pilot production process, and the film speed (in microjoules per square inch) is measured. For the 25-mil film, the sample data result is = 1.15 and 81 = 0.11, while for the 20-mil film, the data yield 2 = 1.06 and 82 = 0.09. Note that an increase in film speed vould lower the value of the observation in microjoules per square inch. (a) Do the data support the claim that reducing the film thickness increases the mean speed of the film? Use a = 0.10 and assume that the two population variances are equal and the underlying population of film speed is normally distributed. What is the P-value for this test? Round your answer to three decimal places (e.g. 98.765). The data the claim that reducing the film…
The mean arterial pressure (or MAP, average arterial pressure in one cardiac cycle) is a measure for perfusion status. You are interested to know if it is possible to predict an adult's MAP (Y) based on the body surface area (X). Suppose you randomly selected 50 adults, and measured their mean arterial blood pressure (in mmHg) & body surface area (in m2). The results are reflected below: I = 1.6 s, = 0.5 y = 80.1 s, = 16.9 r 0.8 %3D %3D (Source: Nall, R. (2018, April 10). Mean arterial pressure: Normal, low, high readings plus treatment.
