Chapter 13.4, Problem 43E
The article “Performance Test Conducted for a Gas Air-Conditioning System” (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineering [1969]: 54) reported the following data on maximum outdoor temperature (x) and hours of chiller operation per day (y) for a 3-ton residential gas air-conditioning system:
Suppose that the system is actually a prototype model, and the manufacturer does not wish to produce this model unless the data strongly indicate that when maximum outdoor temperature is 82°F. The true average number of hours of chiller operation is less than 12. The appropriate hypotheses are then
H0: α + β(82) = 12 versus Ha: α + β(82) < 12
Use the statistic
which has a t distribution based on (n – 2) df when H0 is true, to test the hypotheses at significance level 0.01.

The output of a solar panel (photovoltaic) system depends on its size. A manufacturer states that the average daily production of its 1.5 kW system is 6.6 kilowatt hours (kWh) for Perth conditions. A consumer group monitored this 1.5 kW system in 20 different Perth homes and measured the average daily production by the systems in these homes over a one month period during October. The data is provided here.
kWh 6.2, 5.8, 5.9, 6.1, 6.4, 6.3, 6.9, 5.5, 7.4, 6.7, 6.3, 6.2, 7.1, 6.8, 5.9, 5.4, 7.2, 6.7, 5.8, 6.9
1. Analyse the consumer group’s data to test if the manufacturer’s claim of an average of 6.6 kWh per day is reasonable. State appropriate hypotheses, assumptions and decision rule at α = 0.10. What conclusions would you report to the consumer group? (Hint: You will need to find Descriptive Statistics first.)

- An article in the ACI Materials Journal (Vol. 84, 1987, pp. 213-216) describes several experiments investigating the rodding of concrete to remove trapped air. A 3-inch x 6-inch cylinder was used, and the number of times this rod was used is the design variable. The resulting compressive strength of the concrete specimen is the response. The data are shown in the following table.
