A diet center wanted to test three different methods for losing weight to determine if the average weight loss (reported in pounds/week) for each method is the same. The results for the three methods are tabulated below. Given that there is a significant difference between the three methods, use the Tukey test to determine if there is a significant difference between each pair of methods. Let a=0.05. (picture attached)
When you post a picture on social media, it seems like
your friends randomly "like" the picture. Independent
of the quality or the humor of the photo, there seems
to be a 15.7% chance of the picture being "liked" for
any given picture.
Let X represent the number of pictures you post until
one is "liked." (X represents the photo number that is
actually liked.) Find:
μx:
ox:
P(X = 7):
P(X 15):
P(10 ≤ x ≤ 17):

- Ocean currents are important in studies of climate change, as well as ecology studies of dispersal of plankton. Drift bottles are used to study ocean currents in the Pacific near Hawaii, the Solomon Islands, New Guinea, and other islands. Let x represent the number of days to recovery of a drift bottle after release and y represent the distance from point of release to point of recovery in km/100. The following data are representative of one study using drift bottles to study ocean currents. Σx = 476, Σy = 87.1, Σx2 = 62,290, Σy2 = 2046.87, Σxy = 11121.3,and r ≈ 0.94367. x days 72 76 32 91 205y km/100 14.7 19.6 5.3 11.7 35.8 a) Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim ? > 0.(Use 2 decimal places.)t =critical t= b) Find the predicted distance (km/100) when a drift bottle has been floating for 60 days.

(These are chemicals used as fuel, amongst other things.) The experiment consisted of 16 runs. The response variable, y, was the amount of n-heptane converted to acetylene, expressed as a percentage. There were two explanatory variables: T₁: the temperature (°C) at which the experimental run took place; 12: the 'mole ratio of hydrogen to n-heptane. The multiple regression model fitted to the data from this experiment is y = -130.7+0.134 z1 +0.351 22. (You may assume that a graphical analysis of residuals suggests that this model fits well.) (i) Interpret what the values of the two regression coefficients tell us about the conversion of n-heptane to acetylene. (ii) What, according to the fitted model, is the predicted conversion percentage if the temperature is 1200°C and the mole ratio is 10? (iii) The p-value for the two-sided test…arrow_forward
- A manufacturer wants to increase the shelf life of a line of cake mixes. Past records indicate that the average shelf life of the mix is 231 days. After a revised mix has been developed, a sample of nine boxes of cake mix gave these shelf lives (in days): 230,233, 235, 236, 233, 240, 240, 241, and 237. Using α = 0.025, has the shelf life of the cake mix increased? Multiple Choice Yes, because computed t is greater than the critical value. Yes, because computed t is less than the critical value. No, because computed t lies in the region of acceptance. No, because 236.11 is quite close to 231.arrow_forwardDetermine the test statistics for the main effects.
