Textbook Question
Chapter 15, Problem 41CR
Consider the accompanying data on plant growth after the application of different types of growth hormone.
a. Carry out the F test at level α = 0.05.
b. What happens when the T-K procedure is applied? (Note: This “contradiction” can occur when H0 is “barely” rejected. It happens because the test and the multiple comparison method are based on different distributions.)

0.000
0.100
0.200
0.400
0.800

(c) An unknown sample gave an observed fluorescence intensity of 15.4.
Calculate the concentration of Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) in the unknown sample (μg/mL).
(d) Calculate the coefficient of determination (R2).
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)
Tom thinks lions are slower than tigers. You wish to test his claim at alpha = .05, using the following data:
19 lions run 100 meters in an average 5.6 sec. with a s.d. = 1.2 sec;
13 tigers run 100 meters in an average 4.9 sec. with a s.d. = 2.7 sec.
Assume the run times are normally distributed.
Write Step 1 in the 5 step process (assume population 1 is for lions, and population 2 is for tigers).

Hotel occupancy data for February in two consecutive years are as follows. Current Year Previous Year Оссирied Rexms 1470 1458 Total Rooms 1750 1800 a. Formulate the hypothesis test that can be used to determine if there has been an increase in the proportion of rooms occupied over the one-year period. b. What is the estimated proportion of hotel rooms occupied each year? Using a 0.05 level of significance, what is your hypothesis test conclusion? What is the p-value? C. d.

- 1. A sample of data is collected from a group of college students (X = 112, Sx = 12, N = 58). It is hypothesized that members of this group have higher test scores than the general population (u = 100, o = 15). What test do you conduct? Don't do the test, just name the test and list the relevant equation for the test statistic. %3Darrow_forward4arrow_forwardA farmer wants to test the effectiveness of a pest control method in allowing strawberry blooms to yield marketable strawberries.

Test whether the machines have equal mean mixing time at α = 0.05. Question 16 options: None of the answers are correct. The data provide weak evidence against H0: Equal means at pvalue 0.072. Equality of means remains plausible. The data provide strong evidence against H0: Equal means at pvalue 0.013. The mixing machines are not all equal. The data provide insignificant evidence against H0: Equal means at pvalue 0.514. The machine are considered equal. The data provide extreme evidence against H0: Equal means at pvalue 0.001. The mixing machines are not all equal. The pvalue 0.0001 is extreme evidence that the machines are not all the same.arrow_forward. Differences of electric potential occur naturally from point to point on a body’s skin. Researchers used newts to determine if changing the electric field reduces the mean healing rate for all newts. The researchers found in a sample of 14 newts the following data results: ?̅= −5.714 with sd = 10.564. Conduct a paired t-test at α = .01 to determine if there is sufficient evidence to conclude that changing the electric field reduces the mean healing rate for all newts.arrow_forward
