Beef Consumption. According to Food Consumption, Prices, and Expenditures, published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the mean consumption of beef per person in 2011 was 57.5 lb. A sample of 40 people taken this year yielded the data, in pounds, on last year’s beef consumption given on the WeissStats site. Use the technology of your choice to do the following. a. Obtain a normal probability plot, a boxplot, a histogram, and a stem-and-leaf diagram of the data on beef consumptions. b. Decide, at the 5% significance level, whether last year’s mean beef consumption is less than the 2011 mean of 57.5 lb. Apply the onemean t-test. c. The sample data contain four potential outliers: 0, 0, 0, and 13. Remove those four observations, repeat the hypothesis test in part (b), and compare your result with that obtained in part (b). d. Assuming that the four potential outliers are not recording errors, comment on the advisability of removing them from the sample data before performing the…
