- 1)Remove the four potential outliers of 0, 0, 8, and 20, and then obtain a new histogram without the outliers. Does the data appear to be normally distributed now? 2)Assuming that the four potential outliers of 0, 0, 8, and 20 are not recording errors, repeat the hypothesis test from part (c) (again setting up the hypothesis test and using either the critical value or p-value approach), and compare your results with that obtained in (c). Did you make a different conclusion? 3)Imagine you know have to make a recommendation/conclusion to the company that hired you: Assuming that the four potential outlies are not recording errors, and looking at the two results above, would you recommend using the first test with the outliers or the second test with the outliers removed? There is no right or wrong answer here, I am interested in what you think and your reasoning.Suppose we take a sample of 2,500 blood donors from a population for which 50% (0.5) have type O+ blood. (a) Into what range of possible values should the sample proportion fall 95% of the time, according to the Empirical Rule? to (b) If the sample included only 625 donors instead of 2,500, would the range of possible sample proportions be wider, more narrow, or the same as with a sample of 2,500 donors? Explain your answer, and explain why it makes intuitive sense. The range would be with 625 donors compared to a sample of 2,500 donors since the standard deviation of the sampling distribution would be . This makes intuitive sense because if fewer donors are included in the sample, the proportion will be reliable as an estimate of the proportion.1) A cement producer, manufactures and then fills 40kg-bags of powder cement on twodistinct production tracks located in separate suburbs. To determine whether differencesexist between the average fill rates for the two tracks, a random sample of 25 bags fromTrack 1 and a random sample of 16 bags from Track 2 were recently selected. Each bag’sweight was measured and the following information measures from the samples arereported:Production ProductionTrack 1 Track 2n1 = 25 n2 = 16x2 = 40.02 x1 = 39.87 s1 = 0.59 s2 = 0.88 Supervision believes that the fill rates of the two tracks are normally distributed with equalvariances.Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the true mean difference between the twotracks.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2) Two independent simple random samples were selected from two normallydistributed populations with unequal variances yielded the following information:Sample 1…

She conveniently sampled 100 women attending antenatal care and asked them whether they had hypertension. Of the 100 pregnant women sampled, 50 consented to take part in the study and 1 had diabetes. Based on this finding, the nurse concluded that “the prevalence of diabetes among women in the population is low (2%).” A) Do you agree with the conclusion made by the diabetic nurse? Justify in not more than 100 words? B) Would you have conducted such a study differently if you had all the resources at hand (Describe in not more than 75 words).. The term sample usually refers to a sample that ___ - Consists of people with chemical dependency problems - Uses the same group of individuals with a before/after measurement - Requires a dependent variable for hypothesis testing - Is randomly selected from two dependent populations
- In analyzing the consumption of cottage cheese by members of various occupational groups, the United Dairy Industry Association found that 326 of 837 professionals seldom or never ate cottage cheese, versus 220 of 489 white-collar workers and 522 of 1243 blue-collar workers (Sheet 53).
