A manufacturer of colored candies states that 13% of the candies in a bag should be brown, 14% yellow, 13% red, 24% blue, 20% orange, 16% green. A student randonly selected a bag of colored candies. He counted the number of candies of each color and obtained the results shown in the table. Test whether the bag of colored candies follows the distribution stated above at the a = 0.05 level of significance.

Explain the four different types of sampling and give an example of each.
Four factors are thought to influence the taste of the dietary product: A - type of sweetener; B – fruit content; C – percentage fat matter; D - temperature. A full factorial experiment was conducted with these 4 factors. At each run in the design, samples of the dietary product were tested by panel of experts who rated the taste on a scale from 1 to 10, the response variable taken being the sum of individual ratings. The results are listed in the table below, in the standard order of runs. Generate the design for this experiment, analyse the results by producing main effects and interactions plots and discuss the most significant factors that can be used to find a formulation that maximises the total score.

In a small grocery, 23% of the bottled products were sold while 63% of the canned goods were not. If there were 345 bottled products and 330 canned goods, is there a significant difference between the proportion of sales of bottled products and canned goods? Test at 0.01 level of significance.
A study compared the felt intensity of unrequited love among three groups - individuals who were currently experiencing unrequited love, those who had previously experienced unrequited love and described their experiences retrospectively, and those who had never experienced unrequited love but described how they thought they would feel if they were to experience it. The results of the study are summarized in the accompanying table. Determine the significance of the difference among groups, using the 5% level. N 40 40 40 M 3.5 3.3 3.7 S2 5.3 5.8 4.8 1.

In Problems 9-12, conduct each test at the a= 0.05 level of significance by determining (a) the null and alternative hypotheses, (b) the test statistic, (c) the critical value, and (d) the P-value. Assume that the samples were obtained independently using simple random sampling.
A real estate agent wishes to determine whether tax assessors and real estate appraisers agree on the values of homes. A random sample of the two groups appraised 10 homes. Is there a significant difference in the values of the homes for each group? Assume the data are from normally distributed populations. Real Estate Appraisers Tax Assessors: X1 = $83,256; s1 = $3256; n1 = 10 X2 = $88,354; s2 = $2341; n2 = 10

dults aged 18 years old and older were randomly selected for a survey on obesity. Adults are considered obese if their body mass index (BMI) is at least 30. The researchers wanted to determine if the proportion of southern women who are obese is less than the proportion of southern men who are obese. The results are shown in the table below. Test at the 1% level of significance. Number who are obese Sample size Men 42,773 155,525 Women 67,176 248,775 a.State the distribution to use for the test.

A consumer group wanted to determine if there was a difference in customer perceptions about prices for a specific type of toy depending on where the toy was purchased. In the local area there are three main retailers: W-Mart, Tag, and URToy. For each retailer, the consumer group randomly selected 5 customers, and asked them to rate how expensive they thought the toy was on a 1-to-10 scale (1= not expensive, to 10 = very expensive). The toy was priced the same at all retail stores. 1. What kind of statistical test should be used to test the consumer group's research goal, assuming that the researcher wanted to use the 1-to-10 scale as a numerical interval measure? A. Repeated-measures t-test B. One-way Independent Measures ANOVA C. Repeated-measures ANOVA D. Independent-measures t-test 2. State the hypothesis that aims to test the consumer group’s research goal (i.e., what is H0 and HA).
