An automobile dealer conducted a test to determine if the time in minutes needed to complete a minor engine tune-up depends on whether a computerized engine analyzer or an electronic analyzer is used. Because tune-up time varies among compact, intermediate, and full-sized cars, the three types of cars were us
blocks in the experiment. The data obtained follow.

- Using satellite imagery to aid agriculture grain production has been done on a limited scale as far back as the 1970's when NASA first launched the Landsat satellite. But it has only been recently that the satellite images, including GPS satellites, and data from typical farm operations have been integrated together to provide a data driven innovative technology that improves the efficiency and productivity on farms. In one study samples were taken on wheat yields in the State of Washington which historically had average yields of 35.6 bushels per acre with a standard deviation of 3.7 bushels per acre. Suppose that a random sample of the wheat yields on 40 different farms was taken and the sample mean for the wheat yields was computed, and you are interested in a probability about the sample mean. 28.

- A survey of high school students was done to examine whether students had ever driven a car after consuming a substantial amount of alcohol (1=yes, 0=no). Data was collected on their sex (male/female), race (White/non-White), and grade level (9,10,11,12). Researchers realized that the impact of race on consuming alcohol before driving might vary by grade level and decided to fit the following model. Variable Coding = 1 if Intercept Sex () Female Race () Black Grade level ( 9th grade 10th grade 11th grade [Reference = 12th grade] Attached is the logistic model 1.

- The data for lab 1-2 was created based upon the paper by the STARSproject and modified by Dr. Hole. Fast food meals are typically high incalories, fat, sodium and cholesterol, which are known to increase the riskof obesity and diabetes. Researchers found that unhealthy ingredients,large portion size, low cost, and convenience make fast food cause obesity.The dataset provided by Dr. Hole is derived from a very large consumersurvey conducted by market researchers at Milward Brown. The survey wascarried out using a CATI (computer Aided Telephone Interviewing)methodology. Random digit telephone numbers were dialed and theperson answering was asked “Do you buy fast food nowadays?” Only thoseresponding “Yes” were then surveyed. In class, we already examined thedatasets, found results, and drew tables to answer several questions.Dataset: Lab 1-2.savRequirements: For your 1-2 assignment, please provide scholarly tables and your findings/thoughts with reasonable justification for the following…arrow_forwardA large university is planning to build a new parking garage on campus that will be paid for a larger student parking fee.
