Each of three operators made two weighings of several silicon wafers. Results are presented
in the following table for three of the wafers. All the wafers had weights very close to 54 g.
so the weights are reported in units of ug above 54 g. (Based on the article "Revelation of a
Microbalance Warmup Effect," J. Buckner, B. Chin, et al., Statistical Case Studies for
Industrial Process Improvement, SIAM-ASA, 1997:39 45.)

Construct an ANOVA table. You may give ranges for the P-values.
b. Can it be determined from the ANOVA table whether there is a difference in the
measured weights among the operators? If so, provide the value of the test statistic and
the P-value. If not, explain why not.

- According to a report from the United States Environmental Protection Agency, burning one gallon of gasoline typically emits about 8.9 kg of CO2. A fuel company wants to test a new type of gasoline designed to have lower CO2 emissions. Their hypotheses are Ho : µ = 8.9 kg and H, : µ < 8.9 kg. where u is the mean amount of CO, emitted by burning one gallon of this new gasoline. Suppose that Ho is actually true.

An experiment was conducted to explore the effects of fatigue on the performance of a simple manual task. A random sample of 15 male, college students was obtained. We will assume that this sample forms a random sample from all of the male, college students that were available to the investigators. These students were trained to make a continuous horizontal right-to-left arm movement from a microswitch to a barrier, so that the barrier was knocked over at exactly the same time as the clock sweep second hand arrived at the 6 o'clock position. The absolute value of the difference between the time, in milliseconds, that it took to knock over the barrier and the time for the sweep second hand to reach the 6 o'clock position was recorded. Note that the student's goal is to make this time difference as close to zero as possible.
