Three components are connected to form a system as shown in the accompanying diagram. Because the components in the 2–3 subsystem are connected in parallel, that subsystem will function if at least one of the two individual components
The experiment consists of determining the condition of each component [S (success) for a functioning component and F (failure) for a nonfunctioning component]. (Enter your answers in set notation. Enter EMPTY or ∅ for the empty set.)
(a) Which outcomes are contained in the
A = ?
(b) Which outcomes are contained in the event B that at least two of the components function?
B = ?
(c) Which outcomes are contained in the event C that the system functions?
C = ?
(d) List outcomes in C'.
C' = ?
List outcomes in A ∪ C.

- I am determining how effective a Drug is at reducing inflammation in individuals infected with a virus. the serum levels of antibody are measured as a measure of inflammation (less antibodies means less inflammation which decreases virus mortality) in 30 people given placebo, 30 people given 1 unit of the drug, and 30 people given 2 units of the drug. I would like to determine what levels of the drug are effective, and if there are sex-specific effects. What are the dependent and independent variables in this experiment? age _________ sex __________ antibody level _____________ treatment ___________arrow_forwardlecture(12.11A): Researchers were interested in the effects of co-sleeping on nightime waking and crying in infants. .They assesed the number of minutes parents reported that their infants were awake and crying for a period of three days. Five of the infants co-slept with thier mothers(Co) and four infants slept in crib(Cr).The researchers wanted to see if there was a difference in the total number of minutes of crying during the 3 nights. for the two groups. A summary of the data is given below Co-sleepers night time crying in minutes: 8, 4, 7, 7, 6 Crib-sleepers night time crying in minutes: 30, 17, 22, 25 Test the hypotheses at (aplha=.05) level of signifcance. using the 5 step hypotheses testing procedure.

Plant oils cause the reaction. Researchers at Allergy Institute did a study to determine the effects of washing the oil off within 5 minutes of exposure. A random sample of 1000 people with known allergies to poison ivy participated in the study. Oil from the poison ivy plant was rubbed on a patch of skin. For 500 of the subjects, it was washed off within 5 minutes. For the other 500 subjects, the oil was washed off after 5 minutes. The results are summarized in the following table.

- Sarah believes that completely cutting caffeine out of a person's diet will allow him or her more restful sleep at night. In fact, she believes that, on average, adults will have more than two additional nights of restful sleep in a four-week period after removing caffeine from their diets. She randomly selects 8 adults to help her test this theory. Each person is asked to consume two caffeinated beverages per day for 28 days, and then cut back to no caffeinated beverages for the following 28 days. During each period, the participants record the numbers of nights of restful sleep that they had. The following table gives the results of the study. Test Sarah's claim at the 0.05 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal. Let the period before removing caffeine be Population 1 and let the period after removing caffeine be Population 2.

To test the drug, three samples of rats are selected with n=9 in each sample.The first sample receives the drug every day. The second sample is given the drug once a week, and the third sample receives no drug at all (the control group). These assignments of drugs are called treatments.The (dependent) variable being compared is the amount of food eaten by each rat over a 1-month period.

- A researcher is interested in the effects of diazepam on anxiety in rats. She takes a group of 15 female rats and injects them with 0.005 mg of diazepam for every 100 g the rats weigh, and takes a different group of female rats and injects them with saline. She then puts them all on an elevated-plus maze for 15 minutes and observes how long they spend (in seconds) in the enclosed arms versus the open arms. The less time they spend in the enclosed arms means they have less anxiety. She also weighs them before the injection to make sure she gets the dosage correct. a. Identify the population of interest b. Identify the Independent variable. c. Identify the Dependent variable. d. What scale of measurement was used for the independent variable? Explain why you think so. e. Was the independent variable discrete or continuous? Explain why you think so. f. What scale of measurement was used for the dependent variable?

The researchers divide in half each of 8 fields of land in different locations and plant each corn variety in one half of each plot. After harvest, the yields are compared in bushels per acre at each location. The 8 differences (Variety A - Variety B) give x¯=3.07 and s=5.11. Does this sample provide evidence that Variety A had a higher yield than Variety B? (a) State the null and alternative hypotheses: (Type "mu" for the symbol μμ , e.g. mu > 1 for the mean is greater than 1, mu < 1 for the mean is less than 1, mu not = 1 for the mean is not equal to 1)H0 : Ha : (b) Find the test statistic, t = 7,6arrow_forward
