In each case below, give a brief discourse on the consequences that might result from the error listed. A) A type I error occurs in the determination of caffeine content (Relative to stated content) in an energy drink. (no hypothesis is that The caffeine content is at least as high as stated on the can.) B) A type II error occurs in the determination that the lead level in an industry waste stream is below the EP mandated level.

3. The operations division manager of a logistics company is trying to identify whether the use of nitrogen to fill tires instead of normal air improves fuel economy. The tires of 12 trucks were filled with nitrogen and tested over a prescribed course. Without changing drivers, the tires of the same trucks were then filled with normal air and driven once again over the test course. The mileage was recorded as follows: Mileage (in kilometers/liter) Using Nitrogen Using Normal Air 5.1 Truck 4.9 2. 4.8 4.8 5.4 5.2 4 4.7 4.8 5.3 5.1 5.6 5,4 4,6 6 4.8 4.9 4.8 9. 5.0 5.1 10 4.5 4.2 11 5.6 5.5 12 5.1 5.0 a. Test whether using nitrogen instead of normal air improves fuel econamy (increases the mileage) at 0.05 level of significance. b. Find a 95% confidence interval of the difference between the mean of mileage of trucks whose tires is filled with nitrogen and the mileage of trucks filled whose tires is filled with normal air. interpret.

4. This problem is based on information taken from the Merck Manual (a reference manual used in most medial and nursing schools). Hypertension is defined as a blood pressure reading over 140 mm Hg systolic and/or over 90 mm Hg diastolic. Hypertensions, if not corrected, can cause long-term health problems. In the college-age population (18-24 years), about 9.2% have hypertension. Suppose that a blood donor program is taking place in a college dormitory this week (final exams week). Before each student gives blood, the nurse takes a blood pressure reading. Of 196 donors, it is found that 29 have hypertension. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of students with hypertension during final exams week is higher than 9.2%? Use a 5% level of significance.
1.The Springfield Water Treatment plant is constantly measuring the quality of their drinking water. The level of pH is one item that is measured by them, and the water treatment plant has a target pH of 8.2. In a recent test of 14 samples of water from the treatment plant, they found the following pH levels in their water: 8.6, 8.5, 9.1, 8.4, 8.1, 9.3, 8.8, 8.9, 9.3, 8.0, 8.7, 8.6, 8.7, 9.1 . Also assume that the pH level in the water is approximately normally distributed. Please use R-studio for the following questions. Thank you. a.Compute the p-value of your test statistic using the “pt()” function. Interpret this value with a complete b.Use “t.test(X, alternative = “two.sided”, mu= 2)” on R to quickly verify your result from part a.

MMWR 2013;62:pg 9-13. http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/pdf/wk/mm6201.pdf The article referenced says that when women aged 25-34 binge drink they have on average 7.2 drinks. I'm wondering if women in Laramie are different than the national average. Assume the standard deviation is 0.42 drinks. I sample 9 women who have done binge drinking, and their average is 5.1 drinks. Can I say at the 0.05 significance level that the average is not equal to 7.2?
