Is there a difference in the amount of airborne bacteria between carpeted and uncarpeted rooms? In an experiment, 7 rooms were carpeted and 7 were left uncarpeted. The rooms are similar in size and function. After a suitable period of time, the concentration of bacteria in the air was measured (in units of bacteria per cubic foot) in all of these rooms. Assume the populations are normally distributed. The following is a summary of the data: Carpeted rooms: Uncarpeted rooms: X 184 175 S 22.0 16.9 19. A 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean bacterial concentration in the air of carpeted rooms versus uncarpeted rooms is (use 11 degrees of freedom). O -7.47 to 31.47. O -18.89 to 42.89.

The respondents were asked to rate a series of reasons on a scale from 1 to 5, with 1 representing little importance and 5 representing great importance. One of the reasons suggested was general curiosity. Responses for 50 people from the electronics industry results in a sample mean of 1.96 and 50 people from the food industry results in a sample mean of 3.02 for general curiosity. Use the data and α = 0.01 to determine whether there is a significant difference between people in these two industries on this question. Assume the variance for the electronics population is 1.0188 and the variance for the food population is 0.9180. Clearly state your null and alternate hypothesis. State the decision rule. Show the calculation of the test statistic. Give your answer to 2 decimal places where appropriate. State the statistical conclusion and explain the result in context of the question.arrow_forward
