Students have asked these similar questions
The battery temperatures are a major concern for us. Can you analyze and describe the sample data? What are the average and median temperatures? How much variability is there in the temperatures? Is there anything that stands out?
Our engineers’ assumption is that the temperature data is normally distributed. If that is the case, what would be the likelihood that the Safety Zone temperature will exceed 5.15 degrees? What is the probability that the Safety Zone temperature will be less than 4.65 degrees?
What is the actual percentage of samples that exceed 5.25 degrees or are less than 4.75 degrees?
Is the manufacturing process producing units with stable Safety Zone temperatures? Can you check if there are any apparent changes in the temperature pattern? Are there any outliers? A closer look at the Z-scores should help you in this regard.

Please conduct a step by step of these statistical tests on separate sheets of Microsoft Excel. If the calculations in Microsoft Excel are incorrect, the null and alternative hypotheses, as well as the conclusions drawn from them, will be meaningless and will not receive any points.
4. One-Way ANOVA: Analyze the customer satisfaction scores across four different product categories to determine if there is a significant difference in means.
(Hints: The null can be about maintaining status-quo or no difference among groups)

Total quarterly takings are in millions of Australian dollars. a. Perform inflation adjustment for Takings (using the CPI column), creating a new column in the tsibble called Adj Takings. b. For each state, fit a dynamic regression model of Adj Takings with seasonal dummy variables, a piecewise linear time trend with one knot at 2008 Q1, and ARIMA errors. c.
