A veterinary study of horses looked at water sources for horses, and the investigators found that horses received water from a well, from city water, or from a stream. The investigators wanted to know if horses are equally likely to get water from each of those three sources. They collected data and observed the

A college student is interested in whether presoaking time has an effect on cleanliness of clothing.  He collects the dirty clothes from all of the people in his dorm and randomly assigns clothing to one of four presoak time conditions: 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes.  He then asks members of another dorm to rate the cleanliness of the items (they don’t know which clothing got which soaking time).  The data are presented below. C) Perform an LSD test and answer the questions that follow (SHOW ALL WORK!!! This can be on the same page as your other ANOVA hand work.

Several methods of estimating the number of seeds in soil samples have been developed by ecologists. An article gave the accompanying data on the number of seeds detected by the direct method and by the stratified method for 27 soil specimens.

The National Football League (NFL) records a variety of performance data for individuals and teams. To investigate the importance of passing on the percentage of games won by a team, the following data show the average number of passing yards per attempt (Yds/Att) and the percentage of games won (WinPct) for a random sample of 10 NFL teams for the 2011 season (NFL website). Team Yds/Att WinPct 5.7 26 Arizona Cardinals Atlanta Falcons Carolina Panthers 7.6 67 7.3 52 6.9 51 Chicago Bears Dallas Cowboys 5.1 17 8.6 82 New England Patriots Philadelphia Eagles Seattle Seahawks 5.3 21 6.6 41 St. Louis Rams 6.5 41 Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 6.1 38 a.

Logging activity in forests is thought to affect the behavior of black bears. An important measure of animal behavior is the home range, the area used by animals in their daily lives. In a study of black bears in a logged Canadian forest, the spring and early summer home ranges (in square kilometers) of 12 radio-collared female black bears was measured. The results are below. Assume the home range of female black bears in this logged forest is normally distributed. 39.9, 23.5, 42.1, 29.4, 34.4, 40.9, 27.9, 22.3, 13.0, 20.1, 13.3, 8.6 d) Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean home range of female black bears in this logged forest. e) The typical home range of females in forests with no logging is 20 square kilometers. Based on the confidence interval above, do you think that the mean home range size of females in this logged forest could be the same as the mean home range size in non-logged forests? Explain.

Hospitals In a study of births in New York State, data were collected from four hospitals coded as follows: (1) Albany Medical Center; (1438) Bellevue Hospital Center; (66) Olean General Hospital; (413) Strong Memorial Hospital. Does it make sense to calculate the average (mean) of the numbers 1, 1438, 66, and 413?

his question refers to excavations at a national monument. One question the archaeologists asked was: Is raw material used by prehistoric Indians for stone tool manufacture independent of the archaeological excavation site? Two different excavation sites gave the information in the following table. Use a chi-square test with 5% level of significance to test the claim that raw material used for construction of stone tools and excavation site are independent.   Excavation Site   Material Site A Site B Row Total Basalt 756 559 1315 Obsidian 92 103 195 Pedernal chert 514 521 1035 Other 88 91 179 Column Total 1450 1274 2724 (a) What is the level of significance?   (b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. (Round the expected frequencies to at least three decimal places. Round the test statistic to three decimal places.)

To determine if there is a relationship between grade performance and extracurricular participation, North Carolina State conducted a study of 112 students, recording the number of students in each of three extracurricular categories and each of two grade categories. Here are the results: Low extra-curricular participation Moderate extra-curricular participation High extra-curricular participation Good grades 11 68 3 Poor grades 2 23 A. The conditions that allow us to safely use the chi-squared procedure are met. 5 Source: Felder, et al., "A Study of Student Performance in an Introductory Chemical Engineering Course," 1992 ASEE Annual Conference Proceedings, pp. 1516-1519. The expected count of students with high extracurricular participation and good grades is the number of students that you would expect to see assuming that which of the following is correct? Check all that apply. B. Extracurricular participation and grade performance are related. C. Extracurricular participation and…
