10. An engineering study was undertaken to determine the optimum thickness of aluminum to be used to construct cans to be used for cat food. Cans made of aluminum of thickness 2.10 mm and 1.90 mm were tested to determine the maximum load each would sustain before collapsing. The sample data is summarized below. Use a = 0.05 to test the claim that the thicker cans are stronger (will withstand a higher load).

A series of tests of fire prevention sprinkler systems that use a foaming agent to quell the fire were performed to determine how long it took (in seconds) for the sprinklers to be activated after the detection of a fire by the system. The system has been designed so that the true average activation time is supposed to be at most 25 seconds. Do the data strongly indicate that the design specifications have not been met? The data for the test are given below: 27 41 22 27 23 35 30 33 24 27 28 22 24
In the 2015 AFC Championship game, there was a charge that the New England Patriots underinflated their footballs for an advantage. The Patriots' opponents during the championship game were the Indianapolis Colts. Measurements of the Colts' footballs were taken. The balls should be inflated to between 12.5 and 13.5 pounds per square inch (psi). The accompanying data consists of six of the eight measurements on the Colts' footballs. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. 12.75, 12.50, 12.15, 12.35, 12.55, 12.30 The test statistic is = (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The p-value is = (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b. Use the data to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean psi for the Colts' footballs. How does this confidence interval support your conclusion in part (a)? The 95% confidence interval is ___ psi to ___ psi. (Round to two decimal places as needed. Use ascending order.)
A worker with a weight of 65 kg and a body surface area of 1.74 , performs physical work activities in several work environments as shown in the following table. The work activities of these workers require energy and a measured metabolic rate of 400 W/m2. During their work activities, the worker wears a coverall made of polyolefin and wears a headgear (1) Calculate the average WBGT of the work environment. (2) Perform an analysis related to the heat stress experienced by the worker, if the worker performs his work activities for 75% of his total working time and the rest is rest, (note: use TLV from ACGIH and ISO 7243)

A pharmaceutical company states that there is 500mg of active ingredient in each capsule for one of the medicines they manufacture. However, the FDA believes the company is purposely underfilling the capsule to save money. A sample of 20 capsules is taken and the amount of active ingredient inside is measured. The results are below: 484 460 471 512 494 529 494 485 474 502 503 538 466 495 475 529 518 464 449 489 Part 1: Construct a 95% confidence interval using toolPAK for the amount of active ingredient measured. Use the appropriate distribution, and specify the upper and lower limits of the interval. Part 2: Carefully interpret the 95% confidence interval? What if you did constructed a Confidence Interval Manually? Part 3: Does the 95% confidence interval support the FDA’s claim? Explain. Part 4: Would your answer change if the confidence level was lowered to 75%? Explain.
In experiments to determine the effectiveness of drugs such as anti-fungal ointments that are applied to the skin, the concentration of the drug in a patient’s skin must be measured. The article “Determining Bioequivalence of Topical Dermatological Drug Products by Tape- Stripping” (W. Navidi, A. Hutchinson, et al., Journal of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics, 2008:213–220) describes an improved method of measuring that is designed to ensure that all the drug in the skin is recovered. Assume that in an experiment using the old method, the mean amount of drug recovered from a sample of 49 patients was 105 ng with a standard deviation of 20 ng, and that in an experiment using the new method the mean amount of drug recovered in a sample of 35 patients was 117 ng with a standard deviation of 15 ng. Find a 98% confidence interval for the difference in the mean amounts recovered between the two methods.
In a study of exhaust emissions from school buses, the pollution intake by passengers was determined for a sample of nine school buses used in the Southern California Air Basin. The pollution intake is the amount of exhaust emissions, in grams per person, that would be inhaled while traveling on the bus during its usual 1818‑mile trip on congested freeways from South Central LA to a magnet school in West LA. (As a reference, the average intake of motor emissions of carbon monoxide in the LA area is estimated to be about 0.0000460.000046 grams per person.) The amounts for the nine buses when driven with the windows open are given. 1.151.15 0.330.33 0.400.40 0.330.33 1.351.35 0.380.38 0.250.25 0.400.40 0.350.35 A good way to judge the effect of outliers is to do your analysis twice, once with the outliers and a second time without them. Give two 90%90% confidence intervals, one with all the data and one with the outliers removed, for the mean pollution intake among all school buses…
The article “Effect of Varying Solids Concentration and Organic Loading on the Performance of Temperature Phased Anaerobic Digestion Process” (S. Vandenburgh and T. Ellis, Water Environment Research, 2002:142–148) discusses experiments to determine the effect of the solids concentration on the performance of treatment methods for wastewater sludge. In the first experiment, the concentration of solids (in g/L) was 43.94 ± 1.18. In the second experiment, which was independent of the first, the concentration was 48.66 ± 1.76. Estimate the difference in the concentration between the two experiments, and find the uncertainty in the estimate.
