Mark Weiner, an engineer specializes in braking systems is working with several braking system manufacturers: Bosch, Bendix, and Akebono. He is targeting a tolerance of +/- 17 feet with average (mean) braking distance of 100 feet, for his next generation deluxe model car. Bosch produces an anti-locking braking system, with braking distance average of 102.0 feet, and standard deviation of 4.15 feet. Bendix has a servo braking system, called brake booster; with braking distance average of 103 feet, standard deviation of 4.00 feet. kebono's system has an average of 99.0 feet, standard deviation of 3.2 feet.

An ecologist hypothesizes a relationship between wing span of birds and the width of tree branches they use. The ecologist captured male birds, measured their wing span and other characteristics in millimeters, and then marked and released them. During the ensuing winter, the ecologist repeatedly observed the marked birds as they foraged for food on tree branches. He noted the branch diameter on each occasion, and calculated the average branch diameter for each bird in centimeters. The measurement data are below.

A photoconductor film is manufactured at a nominal thickness of 25 mils. The product engineer wishes to increase the mean speed of the film and believes that this can be achieved by reducing the thickness of the film to 20 mils. Eight samples of each film thickness are manufactured in a pilot production process, and the film speed (in microjoules per square inch) is measured. For the 25-mil film, the sample data result is.x₁ = 1.15 and S₁ = 0.11, while for the 20-mil film, the data yield 2 = 1.06 and s2 = 0.09. Note that an increase in film speed would lower the value of the observation in microjoules per square inch. Do the data support the claim that reducing the film thickness increases the mean speed of the film? Use a = 0.10 and assume that the two population variances are equal and the underlying population of film speed is normally distributed. The appropriate decision for the test is to reject the null hypothesis True False

Arsenic is a chemical element that occurs in many minerals, usually in conjunction with sulfur and metals, and also as a pure elemental crystal. The main use of metallic arsenic is for strengthening alloys of copper and lead. Unfortunately, arsenic occurs in some ground water. In large quantities it is toxic for multicellular life. A mean arsenic level of 8 particles per billion (ppb) is considered safe for agricultural use. A well in Texas is used to water cotton crops. This well is tested regularly for arsenic. A random sample 37 tests gave a sample mean of 7.2 ppb arsenic with standard deviation of 1.9 ppb. Assume that arsenic levels are normally distributed. We are to use the sample data and test if mean arsenic level in the well in question is less than 8 ppb. a. Test statistic isb. The ? − value of the test isc. At the significance level calculated in part c), we conclude that mean arsenic level in thewell is
The average time it takes Amazon to ship a product after it has been ordered is 21 hours. A manager at the Amazon Fulfillment Center in Moreno Valley, California thinks their average speed is faster. To test this, she tracks 58 packages to see how long it takes to ship.

The United States Golf Association (USGA) tests all new brands of golf balls to assure that they meet USGA specifications. One of the tests is intended to measure the average distance traveled when the ball is hit by a machine called “Iron Byron”, a name inspired by the swing of the famous golfer Byron Nelson. The USGA proceeded to test with the Iron Byron machine over 250 golf balls of a new type called Ballistic, recording the distance travelled of each one. They then calculated a sample mean and the following 90% confidence interval [335.1; 337.1] (in meters). Based on USGA’s confidence interval they can conclude: HINT: Remember that we build confidence intervals around sample means - not individual observations.

A study sought to demonstrate that soy beans inoculated with nitrogen-fixing bacteria yield more. This assumption was based on the fact that plants need nitrogen to manufacture vital proteins and amino acids and that nitrogen-fixing bacteria would make more of this substance available to plants, increasing their size and yield.

Raw scores on standardized tests are often transformed for easier comparison. A test of Math ability has a Mean of 153 and a Standard Deviation of 10 when given to 3rd-graders. While 6th-graders have a Mean of 164 and a Standard Deviation of 7 on the same test. Leslie is a 3rd-grade student who scores 159 on the test. Hollis is a 6th-grade student who scores 168 on the test. Calculate the z-score for each student. Who scored higher within their grade-level? O Hollis; because her z-score is closer to the Mean for 6th-graders than Leslie's is for 3rd-graders. Leslie; because her z-score is larger than Hollis' z-score. O Leslie; because she is almost as smart as Hollis. O Hollis; because 168 is higher than Leslie's 159. O Leslie; because she is 6 points higher than the 3rd-grade level Mean while Hollis is only 4 points higher than the 6th-grade level Mean. Question 6 4 pts
