Question

Transcribed Image Text:11. A testing organization gathered some data on the lifetime of a crucial component of
each of two brands obtained from random samples of the component placed on an
accelerated life test. There have been reports of failures of a particular brand (labeled
as Brand A) of flat panel LCD television sets. The following table provides the data on
estimated lifetimes (in months).

Follow-up Question
Test statistic = min {R1, R2} = 6.5
Critical value = 6 (from table)
Since the test statistic is less than the critical value, we reject the null hypothesis.
What do you mean that we are rejecting the null hypothesis? 6,5>6? Thank you in advance!

- Studies of the size and range of wild animal populations often involve tagging observed individual animals and recording how many times each is caught in a trap (from which it is then released back into the wild). The dataset presented in Table 3 consists of the numbers of times each of n = 334 wood mice were caught in a particular trap (over a two-year time period). The data are also provided in the Minitab file wood-mice.mwx.

(i) What is the maximum likelihood estimator of p for a geometric model? (ii) What is the maximum likelihood estimate of p for the data in Table 3? You are recommended to use Minitab to help you to answer this part of the question.arrow_forwardThe 5-year incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in relation to smoking status was determined in a population sample of 1000 men, 18 years and older. At baseline, 30% of the men were classified as being current smokers and 70% as being non-smokers. At the end of the follow-up, 60 CVD events had occurred among the smokers and 70 events among the non-smokers.

The standard corn contains the same standard genotype, but without genetic modification for the chemicals. The two types of corn are then planted in randomly placed adjacent plots across a single field. The amount of predators that are present when the corn has matured are then recorded. The data that was recorded of the predators present among each type are listed. Has genetic alterations decreased the amount of predators for the altered genotype? Normality tests for the populations of both contain a p value less than 0.05. The given alpha is 0.05 Modified Corn (20, 18, 26, 23, 17, 23, 22) Standard Corn (89, 64, 102, 96, 56, 77, 84, 59) use an F test to determine if the variance between the 2 lists are different.
