Heights of 130 singers in the NY Choral Society in 1979 were self-reported to the nearest inch. The four voice parts in order from highest pitch to lowest pitch are Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass. The first two are female voices and the last two are male voices. We would like to test if different parts have significantly different heights. The standard deviations are: s1=2.8 s2=2.4 S3=1.9 s4-3.2 Using the equal variance assumption, can we say the standard deviations are close enough to use ANOVA? (select all that apply) O The assumption is not violated O We can use ANOVA O The assumption is violated O We should NOT use ANOVÁ

You want to see if the average grade for nontraditional age students is less than the average grade for traditional age students. You believe both populations are normally distributed, but you do not know the standard deviations for either. You obtain the following two samples of data.

Tips given to taxi drivers form a substantial part of their income. They also serve as a loose metric of service quality that can be useful for taxi companies. An analysis of a large dataset shows that the tips given (as a percentage of taxi fares) are normally distributed with mean 21.3% and standard deviation 7.5%. Furthermore, tips received for different trips are independent from each other. taxi driver expects to do 2000 trips next year. For approximately how many of these trips will he receive a tip over 25%?

An insurance company is looking over accident statistics. They want to model the population of all drivers for the population parameter of the standard deviation and variance of the age of the driver involved in an automobile accident. They have a sample of 100 accidents from around the country. The age of the driver in each of these accidents is provided below. Use Excel to calculate the sample standard deviation and the sample variance. Round your answers to one decimal place. Do not round until you've calculated your final answer "Age of people in accident"48643346436728189044472440202747683248472248217347302918487364454920205066654187873417203176493089672222455023481746382942254720463119214227226621236675744621461969202048238851284918204522313823284939 Standard deviation: Variance:
After the pandemic hit and people were forced to spend more time indoors, there have been a suspicion among health professionals. that people are eating more and thus gaining weight. In 2018, the average weight of 192 pounds, and health experts want to know if that average weight of the American male has gone up during this pandemic. d. A sample of 50 American males yeilded a sample average weight of 195 pounds and a sample standard deviation of 14.5 pounds. What is your conclusion at the 5% level of significance? (be sure to state your conclusion in the context of this problem) e. Would your conclusion change if the level of significance were changed to 1%? Briefly explain.
