Let a be a random variable representing the percentage of protein content for early bloom alfalfa hay. The average percentage protein content of such early bloom alfalfa should be u = 17.2%. A farmer's co-op is thinking of buying a large amount of baled hay but suspects that the hay is from a later summer cutting with lower protein content. A small amount of hay was removed from each bale of a random sample of 50 bales. The average protein content from the samples was determined by a local agricultural college to be -15.8% with a sample standard deviation of S = 5.3%- At a = .05, does this hay have lower average protein content than the early bloom alfalfa?
3. Let X be the random variable that takes on the integers {0, 1, 2, ..., 15} with equal probabilities. Define a new random variable Y = X + A, where A is a random variable that takes on the values {-1, 0, 1} with equal probabilities. If the RVs X and A are independent, find the mutual information between X and Y.
In the airline business, "on-time" flight arrival is important for connecting flights and general customer satisfaction. Is there a difference between summer and winter average on-time flight arrivals? Let x1 be a random variable that represents percentage of on-time arrivals at major airports in the summer. Let x2 be a random variable that represents percentage of on-time arrivals at major airports in the winter. A random sample of n1 = 16 major airports showed that x1 = 74.9%, with s1 = 5.3%. A random sample of n2 = 18 major airports showed that x2 = 70.2%, with s2 = 8.6%. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value a small amount and thereby produce a slightly more "conservative" answer. (a) Does this information indicate a difference (either way) in the population mean percentage of on-time arrivals for summer compared to winter? Use α = 0.05. (i) What is the…
