Question

Transcribed Image Text:The table below shows head length and breadth of siblings. The four variables are
X₁ = head length of first son, X₂ = head breadth of first son, X3 = head length of second
son, and X₁ = head breadth of second son obtained from 25 families. Do first and second sons
differ in their average head dimensions? State appropriate null hypothesis for this and test at
a = 0.05 and interpret results. You may use softwares for computations but make sure to give
(X₁-X3)
all necessary details. Hint: Define Y =
and state Ho in terms of Y.
(X₂-X₁)

- A laboratory research group did a microarray experiment five years ago with 10 subjects in the normal group, and 6 subjects in the diet group; one microarray per subject. They never published their results because they felt like their diet group was too small. Now they have more money and they want to get 4 diet animals, and run 4 new microarrays on those animals. They plan to add that data to their study so they can increase their statistical discovery power, and finally publish their results. Although increasing the number of subjects should increase the statistical power of the study, give a reason why increasing the number of samples might NOT result in more significant results.arrow_forwardCan you provide an example of a chi-square test?arrow_forwardBefore every flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the aircraft. The aircraft can carry 42 passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of 7,056 lb. The pilot sees that the plane is full and all passengers are men. The aircraft will be overloaded if the mean weight of the passengers is greater than 7,056 lb42=168 lb. What is the probability that the aircraft is overloaded?

- Before every flight, the pilot must verify that the total weight of the load is less than the maximum allowable load for the aircraft. The aircraft can carry 43 passengers, and a flight has fuel and baggage that allows for a total passenger load of 7,009 lb. The pilot sees that the plane is full and all passengers are men. The aircraft will be overloaded if the mean weight of the passengers is greater than 7,009 lb / 43 =163 lb. What is the probability that the aircraft is overloaded?
