1. A report in LTO stated that the average age of taxis in the Philippines is 9 years. An operation manager of a large taxi company selects a sample of 40 taxis and finds the average age of the taxis is 8.2 years. The o of the population is 2.3 years. At a = 0.05, can it be concluded that the average age of the taxis in his company is less than the national average? Solution: Step 1: State the hypotheses. Ho: H::

9. In a telephone survey of 800 registered voters, the data are cross classified both by gender of respondent and by respondent's opinion on an environmental bond issue. Men Women Bond issue For 450 160 Against 150 40 We want to know whether there is good evidence that one's gender influences whether a person is for or against the bond issue. Use the chi-square test to answer this question. State the hypotheses, discuss conditions, perform calculations, and report your conclusions.
Consider the trash bag problem. Suppose that an independent laboratory has tested trash bags and has found that no 30-gallon bags that are currently on the market have a mean breaking strength of 50 pounds or more. On the basis of these results, the producer of the new, improved trash bag feels sure that its 30-gallon bag will be the strongest such bag on the market if the new trash bag's mean breaking strength can be shown to be at least 50 pounds. The mean of the sample of 39 trash bag breaking strengths in Table 1.10 is x = 50.573. If we let u denote the mean of the breaking strengths of all possible trash bags of the new type and assume that o equals 1.61: Using the 95 percent confidence interval, can we be 95 percent confident that u is at least 50 pounds?

A) A researcher conducts an experiment comparing four treatment conditions with a separate sample of n = 6 in each treatment. An ANOVA is used to evaluate the data, and the results of the ANOVA are presented in the following table. Complete all missing values in the table. (Hint: Begin with the values in the df column). Source SS df MS F Between-treatment Within treatment 2 Total 58 B) Several factors influence the size of the F-ratio. For each of the following, indicate whether it would influence the numerator or the denominator of the F-ratio, and indicate whether the size of the F-ratio would increase or decrease. Increase the differences between the sample means. Increase the sample variances.
15. The U.S. Energy Information Administration claimed that in 2017, U.S. residential customers used an average of 10,399 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity. A local power company believes that residents in their area use more electricity on average than EIA’s reported average. To test their claim, the company chooses a random sample of 100 of their customers and calculates that these customers used an average of 10,608 kWh of electricity in the prior year. Assuming that the population standard deviation is 1361 kWh, is there sufficient evidence to support the power company’s claim at the 0.05 level of significance? (a) Symbolically, state the null and alternative hypothesis and state which is the claim. (b) Calculate the standardized test statistic. You must show a filled out standardized test statistic formula. (c) Find either the critical values and identify the rejection regions or find the p-value. Also, decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis and be sure…
1.Miller (2008) examined the energy drink consumption of college undergraduates and found that males use energy drinks significantly more often than females. To further investigate this phenomenon, suppose a researcher selects a random sample of n = 36 male undergraduates and a sample of n = 25 females. On average, the males reported consuming M = 2.45 drinks per month and females had an average of M = 1.28. Assume that the overall level of consumption for college undergraduates averages μ = 1.85 energy drinks per month, and that the distribution of monthly consumption scores is approximately normal with a standard deviation of σ = 1.2. A) The researcher wants to know if the sample of males consume significantly more energy drinks than the overall population average. What are the independent and dependent variables? Using symbols, state the hypotheses for the type of test you indicated in part b. (H0and H1) Sketch the appropriate distribution and locate the critical region for α…

3. A researcher samples 5 colony of Species of K and 5 colonies of Species L, measures their sizes as: Species K Species L 4.7 5.3 5.2 4.6 6.1 4.1 5.8 4.8 5.2 4.2 а. Test if mean colony size of Species K and Species L are different from each other? Report a p-value. (You mav need to do an additional test to decide which test to apply for comparing the means) b. What is the power of the test in part a? С. The researcher would like to design a new experiment which will allow a two tailed hypothesis test with significance 0.05 and power 0.90. What should be the sample sizes nk and ni for Species K and Species L (use k = 1). %3D
4. Using traditional methods, it takes 101 hours to receive an advanced driving license. A new training technique using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique on 90 students and observed that they had a mean of 102 hours. Assume the population variance is known to be 16. Is there evidence at the 0.05 level that the technique performs differently than the traditional method? Step 1. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Step 2. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places. Step 3. Specify if the test is one-tailed or two-tailed. Step 4. Find the �-value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places. Step 5. Identify the level of significance for the hypothesis test. Step 6. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis
2. According to World Health Organization (WHO), the recommended limit for a noise level inside a classroom is 35 dBA. However, nine out of ten schools fail to meet this recommendation. A researcher wishes to conduct a study relevant to the prior information, but as a gap, he decides to include the area (in square meters) of every classroom and how it could possibly affect the resulting noise level. He selects 17 classrooms at random, and the noise levels are recorded in the next slide. a. Find the regression equation and construct the scatter plot diagram. b. Predict the noise level if a classroom has an area of 85.97 m². c. Calculate the coefficient of determination and interpret the findings. d. Calculate the coefficient of alienation and interpret the findings.
