A company that records and sells rewritable DVDS wants to compare the reliability of DVD fabricating machines produced by two different manufacturers. They randomly select 500 DVDS produced by each fabricator and find that 484 of the disks produced by the first machine are acceptable and 480 of the disks produced by the second machine are acceptable. We would like to calculate a confidence interval for p1 - P2, the true difference in the proportion of acceptable DVDS produced by each machine. Which of the following conditions are met? I. Independent random samples II. 10% condition III. Large Counts O All conditions are met O None of the conditions have been met. O Il only O I only O l and II O II only

If n=14, ¯xx¯(x-bar)=34, and s=4, construct a confidence interval at a 80% confidence level. Assume the data came from a normally distributed population.
Thelma and Louise are each attempting to estimate the proportion of adults who enjoy listening to country music. They each survey a different random sample of adults, and in each sample, the proportion who say they enjoy listening to country music is 0.29. Thelma and Louise each use their sample data to construct a confidence interval. Thelma's interval is from 0.242 to 0.338 and Louise's interval is from 0.237 to 0.323. One of these intervals was computed correctly and the other was not. Which interval must be the correct one? It's impossible to answer this question without knowing the level of confidence used for each interval. It's impossible to answer this question without knowing the sample sizes. O It's impossible to answer this question without knowing the sample sizes or the level of confidence used for each interval. Thelma's interval must be the correct interval. O Louise's interval must be the correct interval.
The manager of a company that assembles and exports a particular type of pumps wants to know if there is a link between the number of hours spent by assembly workers in training and their productivity on the job. A random sample of 7 assembly workers was selected and their performances evaluated. The summary of the obtained data is listed in Table 2. Table 2: Shows the time spend by workers during training and their productivity on jobTraining hours (x) 20 36 20 38 40 33 32Output (y) 40 70 44 56 60 48 62 (i) Construct a scatter plot of the sample data and comment on the relationship between hours of training and output. (ii) Estimate a simple regression line, using the method of least squares, to identify a linear relationship between the hours of training received by assembly workers and their output (i.e. number of units assembled per day). (iii) Interpret, in context, the gradient/slope of the regression line. (iv) Estimated the output at 20 hours training time. (v) Interpret the…
A science project involves testing the effects of different types of music on plant growth. A sample of 24 newly sprouted bean plants is obtained. The plants are randomly assigned to each experimental condition (6 per group). The experimental conditions are: rock music, heavy metal, country, and classical. The dependent variable is the height of each plant after 2 weeks. The ANOVA results are summarized as follows: MSB = 10 and SSW =40. Construct a summary table for this study
A general merhandise chain store wants to know if two if its local stores’ sales profiles are similar to that of the general chain. The general daily revenue of the chain is $ 93.5 daily (in thousands) per store. The chain is tracking the sales of each store. The CEO sends two accountants to the stores below to quantify with 95% confidence whether Store A has less sales and store B has more sales in comparison to the general chain’s store profile For the following questions assume that the overall standard deviation is equal to $8 and the chain has data from 100 samples. The chain decides to generalize the inspection scheme and settles for a lenient comparison threshold of 90% confidence. Find a confidence interval of daily revenue for the stores of the entire chain. For a randomly selected store, on a randomly selected date, what is the probability of having a revenue larger than $ 95 ? On a randomly selected date, for a randomly selected store, at most how much revenue is expected…
You want to create a confidence interval for the difference in the percent of people over 40 who took music lessons as children and the percent of people 20-40 who took music lessons as children. You decide to use the Plus Four method. You ask 30 people over 40 and find that 21 of them took music lessons as children. You ask 25 people 20-40 and find that 13 took music lessons as children. Fill in the blanks for what you would put into your calculator's interval function. Have people over 40 be group 1. X1 = n1 = X2 = n2 =
An auditor for a local court system is tasked with comparing the rulings of two judges. The auditor needs to determine if Judge Hughes issues shorter sentences than Judge Wilson. The data below are the sentence lengths, in months, issued by each judge in their last twelve cases that dealt with operating a motor vehicle without a license. Test the claim that Judge Hughes issues shorter sentences than Judge Wilson for this particular type of case at the 0.05 level of significance. Let Judge Hughes' sentences be Population 1 and let Judge Wilson's sentences be Population 2. Assume that both populations are approximately normal and that the population variances are equal. Judge 24 12 12 30 36 30 12 18 24 12 24 30 Hughes Judge Wilson 36 36 24 24 24 24 18 12 30 24 18 30 Step 3 of 3: Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision. Copy Data

The Wall Street Journal asked Concur Technologies, Inc., an expense management company, to examine data from 8.3 million expense reports to provide insights regarding business travel expenses. Their analysis of the data showed that New York was the most expensive city. The following table shows the average daily hotel room rate (X) and the average amount spent on entertainment (Y) for a random sample of 9 of the 25 most-visited U.S. cities. These data lead to the estimated regression equation y = 17.49 + 1.0334x. For these data SSE = 1541.4. Use Table 1 of Appendix B. a. Predict the amount spent on entertainment for a particular city that has a daily room rate of $89 (to 2 decimals). b. Develop a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount spent on entertainment for all cities that have a daily room rate of $89 (to 2 decimals). c. The average room rate in Chicago is $128. Develop a 95% prediction interval for the amount spent on entertainment in Chicago (to 2 decimals).
The dataset "nurses" is a random sample of 1,000 cases from “Health Care Provider Credential Data” from Washington State Open Data Portal. In the sample, there are 418 CNA's and 278 of the CNA's have expired credentials. Use the statistics from the nurses dataset to answer the following question: "With 90% confidence, what percent of all CNA's on Washington State's healthcare provider list are expired?"
