Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 9CQQ
Estimating Length Using the same results displayed in Exercise 8, does it appear that the length estimates are affected by the sex of the subject?
8. Estimating Length Given below is a Minitab display resulting from two-way analysis of variance with sample data consisting of 18 different student visual estimates of the length of a classroom. The values are categorized according to sex and major (math, business, liberal arts). What do you conclude about an interaction between sex and major?

The accompanying table contains the data for the amounts (in oz) in cans of a certain soda. The cans are labeled to indicate that the contents are 20 oz of soda. Use the sign test and
0.05 significance level to test the claim that cans of this soda are filled so that the median amount is 20 oz. If the median is not 20 oz, are consumers being cheated?

The average miles per gallon for a sample of 40 cars of model SX last year was 32.1, with a population standard deviation of 3.8. A sample of 40 cars from this year’s model SX has an average of 35.2 mpg, with a population standard deviation of 5.4.
Find a 99 percent confidence interval for the difference in average mpg for this car brand (this year’s model minus last year’s).Find a 99 percent confidence interval for the difference in average mpg for last year’s model minus this year’s. What does the negative difference mean?
