Chapter 4, Problem 36E

Compare the mean etch uniformity values at each of the C2F6 flow rates from Exercise 4.33 with a scaled t distribution. Does this analysis indicate that there are differences in mean etch uniformity at the different flow rates? Which flows produce different results?

4.33. An inspector counts the surface-finish defects in dishwashers. A random sample of five dishwashers contains three such defects. Is there reason to conclude that the mean occurrence rate of surface-finish defects per dishwasher exceeds 0.5? Use the results of part (a) of Exercise 4.32 and assume that α = 0.05.

4.32. Nonconformities occur in glass bottles according to a Poisson distribution. A random sample of 100 bottles contains a total of 11 nonconformities.

  1. (a) Develop a procedure for testing the hypothesis that the mean of a Poisson distribution λ equals a specified value λ0. Hint: Use the normal approximation to the Poisson.
  2. (b) Use the results of part (a) to test the hypothesis that the mean occurrence rate of nonconformities is λ = 0.15. Use α = 0.01.

Selon une économiste d’une société financière, les dépenses moyennes pour « meubles et appareils de maison » ont été moins importantes pour les ménages de la région de Montréal, que celles de la région de Québec. Un échantillon aléatoire de 14 ménages pour la région de Montréal et de 16 ménages pour la région Québec est tiré et donne les données suivantes, en ce qui a trait aux dépenses pour ce secteur d’activité économique. On suppose que les données de chaque population sont distribuées selon une loi normale. Nous sommes intéressé à connaitre si les variances des populations sont égales.a)    Faites le test d’hypothèse sur deux variances approprié au seuil de signification de 1 %. Inclure les informations suivantes : i.    Hypothèse / Identification des populationsii.    Valeur(s) critique(s) de Fiii.    Règle de décisioniv.    Valeur du rapport Fv.    Décision et conclusion b)    A partir des résultats obtenus en a), est-ce que l’hypothèse d’égalité des variances pour cette…
According to an economist from a financial company, the average expenditures on "furniture and household appliances" have been lower for households in the Montreal area than those in the Quebec region. A random sample of 14 households from the Montreal region and 16 households from the Quebec region was taken, providing the following data regarding expenditures in this economic sector. It is assumed that the data from each population are distributed normally. We are interested in knowing if the variances of the populations are equal. a) Perform the appropriate hypothesis test on two variances at a significance level of 1%. Include the following information: i. Hypothesis / Identification of populations ii. Critical F-value(s) iii. Decision rule iv. F-ratio value v. Decision and conclusion b) Based on the results obtained in a), is the hypothesis of equal variances for this socio-economic characteristic measured in these two populations upheld? c) Based on the results obtained in a),…
A major company in the Montreal area, offering a range of engineering services from project preparation to construction execution, and industrial project management, wants to ensure that the individuals who are responsible for project cost estimation and bid preparation demonstrate a certain uniformity in their estimates. The head of civil engineering and municipal services decided to structure an experimental plan to detect if there could be significant differences in project evaluation. Seven projects were selected, each of which had to be evaluated by each of the two estimators, with the order of the projects submitted being random. The obtained estimates are presented in the table below.   a) Complete the table above by calculating: i. The differences (A-B) ii. The sum of the differences iii. The mean of the differences iv. The standard deviation of the differences b) What is the value of the t-statistic? c) What is the critical t-value for this test at a significance level of 1%?…
