Car tyres come in many different brands. Even on a car, the tyres can wear out after travelling different distances, due to cornering, braking and wheel alignment. Manufacturers of car tyres are interested in the average distance in kilometres travelled by tyres, or the lifetime of tyres until they are considered un-usable and need to be replaced. At this time a tyre is considered un roadworthy

It is extremely important for a researcher to clearly define the varibales in a study because this helps to determine the type of analysis that can be performed on the data. For example, if a researcher wanted to describe people based on Social Security number, what level of measurement would the variable "Social Security number" be? Now suppose the researcher felt that certain people who lived farther ease received higher numbers. Does the level of measurement of the variable change? If so how? What is the level of measurement of the variable "Social Security number"in the origiinal scenario?

At wind speeds above 1000 centimeters per second (cm/sec), significant sand-moving events begin to occur. Wind speeds below 1000 cm/sec deposit sand and wind speeds above 1000 cm/sec move sand to new locations. The cyclic nature of wind and moving sand determines the shape and location of large dunes. At a test site, the prevailing direction of the wind did not change noticeably. However, the velocity did change. Sixty-two wind speed readings gave an average velocity of x = 1075 cm/sec. Based on long-term experience, σ can be assumed to be 260 cm/sec. (a) Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean wind speed at this site. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.) lower limit      cm/sec upper limit      cm/sec (b) Does the confidence interval indicate that the population mean wind speed is such that the sand is always moving at this site? Explain. No. This interval indicates that the population mean wind speed is such that the sand may not always be moving…

You work for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. You have gotten word that a drug manufacturing is not accurately reporting the contents of their liquid cold medication. Under Federal Regulations, "Variations from stated quantity of contents shall not be unreasonably large" (see section q of the regulation by clicking here).The company that produces the cold medication is claiming that each bottle contains 355 milliliters of cold medication, which is about 12 fluid ounces. In order to determine if they are accurate in their reporting, you decide to randomly select 20 different bottles of cold medication and measure the amount of cold medication in each bottle (in milliliters). The results of each sample are shown below. Bottle Number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Milliliters 346 358 360 341 343 350 349 355 351 342   Bottle Number 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Milliliters 351 349 359 340 354 350 350 355 340 352 a) Use the data shown above to construct a 94% confidence interval…

2. Bombardier Aerospace is the third largest airplane manufacturer in the world and has its main headquarters in Dorval, Québec. The Dash 8 series of turboprop airliners are built by Bombardier and are designed to need very short takeoff and landing strips. Suppose that a Dash 8 airplane is travelling from Edmonton to Kelowna, a trip of about 600 km (by air), at a speed of 450 km/h. Let w represent the speed of the wind, in kilometres per hour, where w is positive for a tailwind and negative for a headwind, and t represent the time, in hours, it takes to fly. The equation that represents t as a function of w is as follows: t = 500 w+ 400

This problem set deals with the problem of non-constant acceleration. Two researchers from Fly By Night Industries conduct an experiment with a sports car on a test track. While one is driving the car, the other will look at the speedometer and record the speed of the car at one- second intervals. Now, these aren't official researchers and this isn't an official test track, so the speeds are in miles per hour using an analog speedometer. The data set they create is: {(1,5), (2, 2), (3, 30), (4, 50), (5, 65), (6,70)} Z = 25 They notice that the acceleration is not a constant value. They decide that a fourth-degree polynomial will be the best to describe the speed of the car as a function of time. The task here is to determine the fourth-degree polynomial that fits this data set the best. 1. Construct the system of normal equations A¹ AX = A¹b. AT A = A¹b = 2. Solve the system of normal equations. (I don't want you doing this by hand. Use a calculator or app.) x =

The task here is to determine the fourth-degree polynomial that fits this data set the best. 1. Use a general fourth-degree polynomial and Fly By Night's data to construct six equations. Note that the equations are linear in the coefficients. Write the equations here: 2. Construct the…
