Two new machines for producing tires have been proposed by a worker in a manufacture. The manufacture believes there will be no difference in the strength of tires produced by these machines. To test this hypothesis, a sample of 9 tires produced by machine 1 and 7 tires produced by machine 2 were randomly selected. It is known from previous experience that the strength of a tire produced using machine 1 is a normal random variable with standard deviation equals to 3.

An inventor has developed a new, energy-efficient lawn mower engine. He claims that the engine will run continuously for 5 hours (300 minutes) on a single gallon of regular gasoline. From his stock of 2000 engines, the inventor selects a simple random sample of 40 engines for testing. The engines run for an average of 295 minutes, with a standard deviation of 20 minutes. Test the null hypothesis that the mean run time is µ = 305 minutes against the alternative hypothesis that the mean run time is not 305 minutes. Use p = .08. (Assume that run times for the population of engines are normally distributed.)

One sample has n=7 and SS=35 and a second sample has n =17 and SS =45. What is the pooled variance for these two samples?
The university data center has two main computers. The center wants to examine whether computer 1 is receiving tasks that require processing times comparable to those of computer 2. A random sample of 12 processing times from computer 1 showed a mean of 67 seconds with a standard deviation of 20 seconds, while a random sample of 11 processing times from computer 2 (chosen independently of those for computer 1) showed a mean of 70 seconds with a standard deviation of 16 seconds. Assume that the populations of processing times are normally distributed for each of the two computers and that the variances are equal. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference u, -4, between the mean processing time of computer 1, µ,, and the mean processing time of computer 2, µ„. Then find the lower limit and upper limit of the 90% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your responses to at least two decimal places.

A psychologist finds that fidgety patients tap their fingers on average 500 times during a 2 hour period. You wish to test this claim for the same patients, but in a room decorated with soothing colors and soft lighting. You believe that a warmly decorated room may alter the fidgeting behavior, causing subjects to tap their fingers less than they do under normal conditions. A random sample of 400 patients has a mean of 420 taps and a standard error of 30 taps in a 2 hour period. Find the margin of error for the average tapping of fingers during a 2 hour period.
An educational psychologist is studying two methods of tutoring young children: Method A and Method B. She wants to test whether there is any difference in puzzle solving skills between children tutored by one method versus children tutored by the other. Independent samples of 10 children who were tutored using Method A and 11 children who were tutored using Method B were chosen at random. The Method A children took a mean of 40 minutes to solve a certain puzzle with a standard deviation of 6 minutes. The Method B children took a mean of 44 minutes to solve the same puzzle with a standard deviation of 7 minutes. Assume that the two populations of completion times are normally distributed and that the population variances are equal. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference u, - u, between the mean puzzle-solving times for Method A children ( u) and for Method B children (µ,). Then find the lower limit and upper limit of the 90% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate…

Independent samples of 11 children who were tutored using Method A and 10 children who were tutored using Method B were chosen at random.

One of the two fire stations in a certain town responds to calls in the northern half of the town, and the other fire station responds to calls in the southern half of the town. The following is a list of response times (in minutes) for both of the fire stations (this data will be used for several problems). Both samples may be regarded as simple random samples from approximately normal populations so that the t- procedures are safe to use. Northern: 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 12 Sum = 192 Sum of Squared Deviations = 197.2 Southern: 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 12, 12, 12, 12, 13 Sum = 225 Sum of Squared Deviations = 231.5 Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean response time of the fire station that responds to calls in the northern part of town.

Two new machines for producing tires have been proposed by a worker in a manufacture. The manufacture believes there will be no difference in the strength of tires produced by these machines. To test this hypothesis, a sample of 9 tires produced by machine 1 and 7 tires produced by machine 2 were randomly selected. It is known from previous experience that the strength of a tire produced using machine 1 is a normal random variable with standard deviation equals to 3. And the strength of a tire produced using machine 2 is also a normal random variable with standard deviation equals to 4. use the following information to answer the following questions: 1. Find the estimated difference mean strength of tires produced using both machines [X-X) 2. What is the value of the test statistic : ii. If p-value was found equal to 0.12, What is the appropriate conclusion?
A carpenter is making doors that are 2058 millimeters tall. If the doors are too long they must be trimmed, and if they are too short they cannot be used. A sample of 61 doors is made, and it is found that they have a mean of 2044 millimeters with a variance of 729. Is there evidence at the 0.05 level that the doors are either too long or too short? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.
A psychologist has developed a standardized test for measuring vocabulary skill for 4 year old children. The scores on the test form a normal distribution with u = 70 and o = 20. A researcher would like to use the test to investigate the hypothesis that children who grow up as an only child develop vocabulary skills at a faster rate than children in larger families. A sample of n=25 only children is obtained and the mean test score for the sample is M = 77. Perform a two tailed hypothesis test, with an alpha level of .05, and add an APA summary.
A researcher decides to measure anxiety in group of bullies and a group of bystanders using a 23-item, 3 point anxiety scale. Assume scores on the anxiety scales are normally distributed and the variance among the group of bullies and bystanders are the same. A group of 30 bullies scores an average of 21.5 with a sample standard deviation of 10 on the anxiety scale. A group of 27 bystanders scored an average of 25.8 with a sample standard deviation of 8 on the anxiety scale. You do not have any presupposed assumptions whether bullies or bystanders will be more anxious so you formulate the null and alternative hypothesis based on that.
