Question

Transcribed Image Text:A restaurant manager is concerned about customer complaints regarding the taste of a
popular dish, Chicken Alfredo. To address this issue, the chef has been experimenting
with two different recipes. Recipe 1 is the traditional and well-established method, while
Recipe 2 is a new, cost-effective approach.
The restaurant has conducted taste tests with two separate random samples of
customers who tried only one each of the recipes. For Recipe 1, the average rating
on a scale of 1 to 10 was 7.6, with a standard deviation of 1.1. For Recipe 2, the
average rating was 6.7, with a standard deviation of 2.5.

Transcribed Image Text:The manager is concerned that Recipe 2 may not be as well-received as Recipe 1, and
they want to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in customer
satisfaction between the two recipes. They need to make an informed decision about
whether to continue offering Recipe 2 or stick with the traditional Recipe 1
Using this data set perform the following tasks. Do all calculations 'manually' (i.e., with
a hand calculator without using R, Excel, or any other software), showing the relevant
formulas and the major steps. Use the sample means and standard deviations
provided.
(a)
Is there statistical evidence that the population variances for both samples are the
same? What parametric test can you use to answer this question? Answer using
the six steps of hypothesis testing; including by stating the null and alternative
hypotheses; providing an appropriate test statistic and its distribution and
describing an appropriate decision rule. Implement this test using a 5%
significance level.
(b)
(c)
Test if the population mean 'time to failure' of Method 2 is quicker (less) than that
of Method 1. Answer using the six steps of hypothesis testing; including by stating
the null and alternative hypotheses; providing an appropriate test statistic and its
distribution and describing an appropriate decision rule. Implement this test using a
5% significance level.
What are the requirements of the hypothesis tests you performed in parts (a) and
(b)? Are the requirements about the experimental design, the variable of interest
and the measurement scale met? Explain your answers.
