Question
Chapter 13, Problem 6E
a)
To determine
To find the type of the study.
a)
Expert Solution
Answer to Problem 6E
This is an experimental study.
Explanation of Solution
First need to understand about the experimental study and observational study:
Experimental study: Assigning people or things to groups and applying some treatment to one group, while the other group does not receive the treatment.
Observation study: In an observational study, measure or survey members of a sample without trying to affect them.
This is an experimental study because the treatment is replacing the flower pictures with picture of eyes.
b)
To determine
To identify the variables.
b)
Expert Solution
Answer to Problem 6E
The variables are Picture and average contribution.
Explanation of Solution
In this study, an investigation is replacing pictures and their average contribution. Therefore, the variables are Picture and average contribution.
c)
To determine
To explain meaning of “increased significantly”.
c)
Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
The meaning of “increased significantly” is that the increases in the average contribution is too large to be due to chance.

- A well-known company predominantly makes flat pack furniture for students. Variability with the automated machinery means the wood components are cut with a standard deviation in length of 0.45 mm. After they are cut the components are measured. If their length is more than 1.2 mm from the required length, the components are rejected. a) Calculate the percentage of components that get rejected. b) In a manufacturing run of 1000 units, how many are expected to be rejected? c) The company wishes to install more accurate equipment in order to reduce the rejection rate by one-half, using the same ±1.2mm rejection criterion. Calculate the maximum acceptable standard deviation of the new process.arrow_forward5. Let X and Y be independent random variables and let the superscripts denote symmetrization (recall Sect. 3.6).
