Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test for Body Temperatures The table below lists body temperatures of seven subjects at 8 AM and at 12 AM (from Data Set 3 “Body Temperatures in Appendix B). The data are matched pairs because each pair of temperatures is measured from the same person. Assume that we plan to use the Wilcoxon signed-ranks test to test the claim of no difference between body temperatures at 8 AM and 12 AM.
a. What requirements must be satisfied for this test?
b. Is there any requirement that the samples must be from populations having a
c. In what sense is this sign test a “distribution-free test”?

Determine compass error using amplitude (Sun).
Minimum number of times that activity should be performed: 3 (1 each phase)
Sample calculation (Amplitude- Sun):
On 07th May 2006 at Sunset, a vessel in position 10°00'N 010°00'W observed the Sun bearing 288°

Amplitude=W17.2N
(The prefix of amplitude is named easterly if body is rising,
and westerly if body is setting. The suffix is named same
as declination)
True Bearing=287.2°
Compass Bearing= 288.0°
Compass Error = 0.8° West

13. In 2000, two organizations conducted surveys to ascertain the public's opinion on banning gay men from serving in leadership roles in the Boy Scouts.• A Pew poll asked respondents whether they agreed with "the recent decision by the Supreme Court" that "the Boy Scouts of America have a constitutional right to block gay men from becoming troop leaders."A Los Angeles Times poll asked respondents whether they agreed with the following statement: "A Boy Scout leader should be removed from his duties as a troop leader if he is found out to be gay, even if he is considered by the Scout organization to be a model Boy Scout leader."One of these polls found 36% agreement; the other found 56% agreement. Which of the following statements is true?A) The Pew poll found 36% agreement, and the Los Angeles Times poll found 56% agreement.B) The Pew poll includes a leading question, while the Los Angeles Times poll uses neutral wording.C) The Los Angeles Times Poll includes a leading question, while…

You will use a single test car, adding weights so that its total weight is 3000, 3500, or 4000 pounds. The car will drive on a test track at each weight using each of Amoco, Marathon, and Speedway gasoline. Which is the best way to organize the study? Start with 3000 pounds and Amoco and run the car on the test track. Then do 3500 and 4000 pounds. Change to Marathon and go through the three weights in order. Then change to Speedway and do the three weights in order once more. Start with 3000 pounds and Amoco and run the car on the test track. Then change to Marathon and then to Speedway without changing the weight. Then add weights to get 3500 pounds and go through the three gasolines in the same order.Then change to 4000 pounds and do the three gasolines in order again.
