Construct a histogram for the spot weld shear strength datain Exercise 6.2.9. Comment on the shape of the histogram. Doesit convey the same information as the stem-and-leaf display?  Reference: Exercise 6.2.9 is found in the image attached below

1. Show that f(x) = x3 is not uniformly continuous on R. 2. Show that f(x) = 1/(x-2) is not uniformly continuous on (2,00). 3. Show that f(x)=sin(1/x) is not uniformly continuous on (0,л/2]. 4. Show that f(x) = mx + b is uniformly continuous on R. 5. Show that f(x) = 1/x2 is uniformly continuous on [1, 00), but not on (0, 1]. 6. Show that if f is uniformly continuous on [a, b] and uniformly continuous on D (where D is either [b, c] or [b, 00)), then f is uniformly continuous on [a, b]U D. 7. Show that f(x)=√x is uniformly continuous on [1, 00). Use Exercise 6 to conclude that f is uniformly continuous on [0, ∞). 8. Show that if D is bounded and f is uniformly continuous on D, then fis bounded on D. 9. Let f and g be uniformly continuous on D. Show that f+g is uniformly continuous on D. Show, by example, that fg need not be uniformly con- tinuous on D. 10. Complete the proof of Theorem 4.7. 11. Give an example of a continuous function on Q that cannot be continuously extended to R. 12.…

3. Explain why the following statements are not correct. a. "With my methodological approach, I can reduce the Type I error with the given sample information without changing the Type II error." b. "I have already decided how much of the Type I error I am going to allow. A bigger sample will not change either the Type I or Type II error." C. "I can reduce the Type II error by making it difficult to reject the null hypothesis." d. "By making it easy to reject the null hypothesis, I am reducing the Type I error."

The 2004 presidential election exit polls from the critical state of Ohio provided the following results. The exit polls had 2020 respondents, 768 of whom were college graduates. Ofthe college graduates, 412 voted for George Bush.a. Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the proportion ofcollege graduates in Ohio who voted for George Bush.b. Calculate a 95% lower confidence bound for the proportion of college graduates in Ohio who voted for George Bush.

1. The yield of a chemical process is being studied. From previous experience, yield is known to be normally distributed and σ = 3. The past 5 days of plant operation have resulted in the following percent yields: 91.6, 88.75, 90.8, 89.95, and 91.3. Find a 95% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean yield.   2. A research engineer for a tire manufacturer is investigating tire life for a new rubber compound and has built 16 tires and tested them to end-of-life in a road test. The sample mean and standard deviation are 60,139.7 and 3645.94 kilometers. Find a 95% confidence interval on mean tire life

The following two questions appear on an employee survey questionnaire. Each answer is chosen from the five-point scale 1 (never), 2, 3, 4, 5 (always).Is the corporation willing to listen to and fairly evaluatenew ideas?How often are my coworkers important in my overall jobperformance?

Cloud seeding, a process in which chemicals such as silver iodide and frozen carbon dioxide are introduced by aircraft into clouds to promote rainfall, was widely used in the 20th century. Recent research has questioned its effectiveness [“Reassessment of Rain Enhancement Experiments and Operations in Israel Including Synoptic Considerations,” Journal of Atmospheric Research (2010, Vol. 97(4), pp. 513–525)]. An experiment was performed by randomly assigning 52 clouds to be seeded or not. The amount of rain generated was then measured in acre-feet. Here are the data for the unseeded and seeded clouds: Unseeded: 81.2 26.1 95.0 41.1 28.6 21.7 11.5 68.5 345.5 321.2 1202.6 1.0 4.9 163.0 372.4 244.3 47.3 87.0 26.3 24.4 830.1 4.9 36.6 147.8 17.3 29.0 Seeded: 274.7 302.8 242.5 255.0 17.5 115.3 31.4 703.4 334.1 1697.8 118.3 198.6 129.6 274.7 119.0 1656.0 7.7 430.0 40.6 92.4 200.7 32.7 4.1 978.0 489.1 2745.6 Find the sample mean, sample standard deviation, and range of rainfall for a.
