An android phone manufacturer produces a new product variant of a smartphone which they claim as indestructible despite being dropped. They are claiming that the tensile strength of the newly produced smartphone is greater than twenty-five. Meanwhile, the quality assurance scientists and technicians conducted another test to assure the quality of the new smartphone variant. They can only test fourteen samples a day due to lack of manpower, so it was done in two batches. After twenty-eight days, the following tensile strengths were obtained from the two sample batches:
1st batch | 2nd batch |
25.3 | 25.4 |
24 | 24.6 |
24.1 | 24.3 |
24.6 | 25.8 |
25.6 | 25.9 |
26 | 26.1 |
25.2 | 25.4 |
25.4 | 25.3 |
25 | 25.1 |
26.7 | 26.3 |
26.2 | 26.1 |
24.9 | 24.8 |
25.7 | 24.9 |
26.8 | 25 |
1. Do the tensile strengths of the two batches has a significant difference?
2. Compute the value of P and verify if the smartphone company's claim is legitimate
3. If the confidence interval is ninety-five percent, establish the tensile strength

- In 1906, San Francisco experienced an intense earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 on the Richter scale. In 1989, the Loma Prieta earthquake also affected the San Francisco area, and measured 6.9 on the Richter scale. Compare the intensities of the two earthquakes.The quality control engineer at Palmer Industries is interested in estimating the tensile strength of steel wire based on its outside diameter and the amount of molybdenum in the steel. As an experiment, she selected 25 pieces of wire, measured the outside diameters, and determined the molybdenum content. Then she measured the tensile strength of each piece. The results of the first four are recorded in the table. Tensile Strength Outside Diameter Amount of Molybdenum Place (PSI ) Y (mm) X1 (Units) X2 A 11 0.3 6 B 9 0.2 5 C 16 0.4 8 D 12 0.3 7 Using a statistical software package, the QC engineer determined the multiple regression equation to be Y’=-0.5+20X1+1X2. a) Based on the equation, what is the estimated tensile strength of a steel wire having an outside diameter of .35 mm and 6.4 units of molybdenum? b) Interpret the value of b1 in the equation.A manufacturer wants to increase the shelf life of a line of cake mixes. Past records indicate that the average shelf life of the mix is 234 days. After a revised mix has been developed, a sample of nine boxes of cake mix gave these shelf lives (in days): 232,238, 238, 239, 236, 243, 243, 244, and 240. At a = 0.05, the manufacturer wants to test if the shelf life of the cake mix increased. What critical value must be used for this test?
- A manufacturing company produces electric insulators. You define the variable of interest as the strength of the insulators. If the insulators break when in use, a short circuit is likely. To test the strength of the insulators, you carry out destructive testing to determine how much force is required to break the insulators. You measure force by observing how many pounds are applied to the insulator before it breaks. The accompanying data represent the amount of force required to break a sample of 30 insulators. 1,865 1,706 1,698 1,619 1,609 1,779 1,570 1,693 1,581 1,668 1,898 1,755 1,729 1,698 1,704 1,780 1,883 1,771 1,799 1,867 1,812 1,713 1,754 1,793 1,823 1,791 1,668 1,815 1,677 1,707 Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean force. ___ ≤μ≤ ___A manufacturing company produces electric insulators.

- The U.S. Department of Transportation requires tire manufacturers to provide tire performance information on the sidewall of a tire to better inform prospective customers as they make purchasing decisions. One very important measure of tire performance is the tread wear index, which indicates the tire's resistance to tread wear compared with a tire graded with a base of 100. A tire with a grade of 200 should last twice as long, on average, as a tire graded with a base of 100. A consumer organization wants to estimate the actual tread wear index of a brand name of tires that claims "graded 200" on the sidewall of the tire. A random sample of n = 18 indicates a sample mean tread wear index of 195.3 and a sample standard deviation of 21.4. %3! Calculate the lower level confidence interval for the problem above and enter you answer rounded to two decimal points below. DO NOT ROUND any value until your FINAL ANSWER.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 isAn investigator wants to estimate the impact of smoking on the incidence of prostate cancer.

A repeat study in England, cohort enrolls men at age 50 and followed them for 30 years. Problem: Generste a 95% confidence level, assume a 20% attrition, and a margin of error of no more than 0.05 (5%) E=0.05
