Question
A particular county employs three assessors who
are responsible for determining the value of residential
property in the county. To see whether these assessors differ systematically in their appraisals, 5 houses are selected, and each assessor is asked to determine the market
value of each house. Explain why a randomized block experiment (with blocks corresponding to the 5 houses) was used rather than a completely randomized experiment involving a total of 15 houses with each assessor asked to appraise 5 different houses (a different group of5 for each assessor)

- A banana grower has three fertilizers from which to choose. He would like to determine which fertilizer produces banana trees with the largest yield (measured in pounds of bananas produced). The banana grower has noticed that there is a difference in the average yields of the banana trees depending on which side of the farm they are planted (South Side, North Side, West Side, or East Side), therefore, a randomized block design is used in the study. Because of the variation in yields among the areas on the farm, the farmer has decided to randomly select three trees within each area and then randomly assign the fertilizers to the trees. After harvesting the bananas, he calculates the yields of the trees within each of the areas. Can the banana grower conclude that there is a significant difference among the average yields of the banana trees for the three fertilizers? The results are as follows.

In fact, some lecture theatres even have sound systems with high quality sound opposed to standard sound. However, the high quality sound systems face issues and sometimes do not work faultlessly. In fact, it is known that these high quality sound systems work faultlessly 86% of the time each week. A random sample of 10 lecture theatres with high quality sound is selected and monitored over the week. What is the probability that these lecture theatres work faultlessly more than seven times?

You look at 5 different ways viewers reach your videos. You want to find out if there are better avenues for viewers to find your videos compared to others. You look at your 10 strongest videos and looked at the amount of views over the past day based on how viewers found the videos. Construct a One Way ANOVA to test if there are differences in average views for each avenue for finding videos.arrow_forward
- Acne is a common skin disease that affects most adolescents and can continue into adulthood. A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.arrow_forwardA sample sequence of 42 products is selected (in order) from an assembly line. Each product is examined and judged to be either acceptable or defective.

The runs test is to be used at the 0.05 significance level to test for randomness.
