Does Chi-squared(alpha) always represent the right tail of the the chi-square distribution and does Chi-squared(1-alpha) always represent the left tail of the the chi-square distribution. Also, for a standard normal distribution would Z(1-alpha) be equivalent to -Zalpha in represneting the left tail of the standard normal distribution curve because they both have the same z-score. Furthermore, is my understanding correct in the sense that if we have a critical value,say Zalpha, would the area to the right of it will be alpha and to the left of it would be 1-alpha
One bulb manufacturer claims an average bulb life of 1,600 hours. It is suspected that the actual average is significantly lower. To verify this, a sample of 49 bulbs is selected and the life of each bulb is measured. A sample mean of 1,500 hours and a standard deviation of 120 hours were obtained from them.
Can you be sure, at 5% significance, that the mean life is less than what the manufacturer claims?
The specification calls for the dimension of a certain mechanical part to be 0.55 inches. A random sample of 35 parts taken from a large batch showed a mean 0.54 in. with a deviation of 0.05 in.
Can it be concluded, at 1% significance, that the batch of parts meets the required specification?

- A manufacturer produces a wire rope of a certain type, which has a breaking strength of not more than 300 kg. A new and cheaper process is discovered which is desired to be employed, provided that the wire rope thus produced has an average breaking strength greater than 300 kg. If a random sample of 26 wires produced with the new process has given a mean of 304.5 kg and a standard deviation of 15 kg, should the manufacturer adopt the new process?arrow_forwardWe are interested in whether the proportions of female suicide victims for ages 15 to 24 are the same between the white and the black races in the United States. We randomly pick one year to compare the races. The number of suicides estimated in the United States in that year for white females is 4,930. Five hundred eighty-three were aged 15 to 24. The estimate for black females is 330. Forty-one were aged 15 to 24. We will let female suicide victims be our population. (Use α = 0.05.) NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution for the problem, including for paired data, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed.

Psychologists who study ①memory often use a measure of "free recall" (e.g., the RECALL number of correctly recalled items in a list of to-be- remembered items). The strategy used to memorize the list-for example, category clustering-is often just as important. Researchers at Central Michigan University developed an algorithm for computing measures of cat- egory clustering in Advances in Cognitive Psychology (Oct. 2012). One measure, called ratio of repetition, was recorded for a sample of 8 participants in a memory study. These ratios are listed in the table. Test the theory that the average ratio of repetition for all participants in a similar memory study differs from .5. Select an appropriate Type I error rate for your test. .25 .43 .57 .38 .38 .60 .47 .30 Source: Senkova, O., & Otani, H. "Category clustering calculator for free recall."

Refer to the D Radiation Protection Dosimetry (Dec. 2010) study TOMBS of radon exposure in Egyptian tombs, Exercise 7.39 (p. 334). The radon levels-measured in becquerels per cubic meter (Bq/m³)-in the inner chambers of a sam- ple of 12 tombs are listed in the table. For the safety of the guards and visitors, the Egypt Tourism Authority (ETA) will temporarily close the tombs if the true mean level of radon exposure in the tombs rises to 6,000 Bq/m³. Consequently, the ETA wants to conduct a test to deter- mine if the true mean level of radon exposure in the tombs is less than 6,000 Bq/m³, using a Type I error probabil- ity of .10. A SAS analysis of the data is shown on p. 399.

Suppose you are interested in the rate of autism among current school-aged children in Utah. You collect a sample of 400 children between the ages of 5 and 18 and find that three have had a previous diagnosis of an autism disorder. You plan to calculate a 95% confidence interval estimator of the proportion of school-aged children in Utah who have ever had a diagnosis of an autism disorder. Which of the following is the most likely reason you would use a Wilson estimator to calculate the confidence interval estimator? It is uncomfortable to define having been diagnosed with autism as a success. It is possible that if even the actual proportion in Utah is 1%, your sample may only have very few children who have had a previous diagnosis of an autism disorder. It is an easier way to calculate the confidence…arrow_forward
