The specifications for a certain kind of ribbon call for a mean breaking strength of 185 pounds. If five pieces randomly selected from different rolls have breaking strengths of 171.6, 191.8, 178.3, 184.9, and 189.1 pounds, test the null hypothesis µ = 185 pounds against the alternative hypothesis µ not- of significance. 185 pounds at the 0.1 level

1) Is the test significant? A. Unable to determine B. No, p = .448 C. Yes, p = <. 001 D. Yes, p = .448   2) In order to determine where the main mean differences lie, the researcher would also need to conduct a ____? A. Correlation B. MANOVA C. post-hoc analysis D. t-test

In a random sample of males, it was found that 29 write with their left hands and 212 do not. In a random sample of females, it was found that 70 write with their left hands and 444 do not. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the rate of left-handedness among males is less than that among females. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

Allison's soccer penalty kick speeds vary uniformly between 57 and 78 miles per hour. Round answers to four decimal places. a) What is Allison's average penalty kick speed? b) What proportion of Allison's penalty kicks are faster than 70 miles per hour? [ c) What is the 3rd quartile of the distribution of Allison's penalty kick speeds? d) What is the variance of Allison's penalty kick speeds? e) What is the specific speed that is exceeded by only 11% of Allison's penalty kick speeds? 1) What is the probability that the speed of one of Allison's randomly selected penalty kicks is between 62 and 66 miles per hour?

Q: The dataset (provided below this question) lists the ages of customers at 5 different coffee stores in a major metropolitan city.  At the 1% significance level, is there evidence of a difference in the population mean ages between the customers at the five stores.

Listed below are the lead concentrations (in µg/g) measured in different Ayurveda medicines. Ayurveda is a traditional medical system commonly used in India. The lead concentrations listed here are from medicines manufactured in the United States. Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the mean lead concentration for all such medicines is less than 14.0 μg/g. 2.95 6.46 6.00 5.46 20.49 7.51 12.02 20.45 11.50 17.54 Identify the null and alternative hypotheses.

A food distribution company claims that a restaurant chain receives, on average, 26 pounds of fresh vegetables on a daily basis. The standard deviation of these shipments is known to be 4.4 pounds. The district manager of the restaurant chain decides to randomly sample 35 shipments from the company and finds a mean weight of 24.7 pounds. Test at a 3% level of significance to determine whether or not the food distribution company sends less than 26 pounds of fresh vegetables. a. Check the TWO requirements that are satisfied. The Central Limit Theorem applies. The a distribution is normal since n > 30. The a distribution is normal since the x distribution is normal. The p distribution is normal since np > 5 and nq > 5.
