Better Traffic Flow Exercise 2.155 introduces the dataset TrafficFlow, which gives delay time in seconds for 24 simulation runs in Dresden, Germany, comparing the current timed traffic light system on each run to a proposed flexible traffic light system in which lights communicate traffic flow information to neighboring lights. On average, public transportation was delayed 105 seconds under the timed system and 44 seconds under the flexible system. Since this is a matched pairs experiment, we are interested in the difference in times between the two methods for each of the 24 simulations. For the n = 24 differences D, we saw in Exercise 2.155 that x‾D=61 seconds with sD = 15.19 seconds. We wish to estimate the average time savings for public transportation on this stretch of road if the city of Dresden moves to the new system. d)   If we create a bootstrap distribution using many of these bootstrap statistics, what shape do we expect it to have and where do we expect it to be centered? (e)   How can we use the values in the bootstrap distribution to find the standard error? f)   The standard error is 3.1 for one set of 10,000 bootstrap samples. Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the average time savings.

Identifying individuals with a high risk of Alzheimer's disease usually involves a long series of cognitive tests. However, researchers have developed a 7-Minute Screen, which is a quick and easy way to accomplish the same goal. The question is whether the 7-Minute Screen is as effective as the complete series of tests. To address this question, Ijuin et al. (2008) administered both tests to a group of patients and compared the results. The following data represent results similar to those obtained in the study.    7-Minute Screen Cognitive Series 3 11 8 19 10 22 8 20 4 14 7 13 4 9 5 20 14 25 Which statistical test would you select: Answer    H0: Answer H1: Answer What is the coefficient that indicates the strength of the relationship? Answer =Answer What is the standard error? Answer What is the appropriate 95% CI?  [ Answer , Answer ] What is the d-effect size? Answer What is the t-observed? Answer What is the actual p-value? Answer THREE decimal places…

An amusement park studied methods for decreasing the waiting time (minutes) for rides by loading and unloading riders more efficiently. Two alternative loading/unloading methods have been proposed. To account for potential differences due to the type of ride and the possible interaction between the method of loading and unloading and the type of ride, a factorial experiment was designed. Use the following data to test for any significant effect due to the loading and unloading method, the type of ride, and interaction. Use a = 0.05. Factor A is method of loading and unloading; Factor B is the type of ride.
