Consider the following information on ultimate tensile strength (lb/in) for a sample of n = 4 hard zirconium copper wire specimens (from “Characterization Methods for Fine Copper Wire,” Wire J. Intl., Aug., 1997: 74-80): X (bar)= 76,831 s = 180 smallest xi = 76,683 largest xi = 77,048Determine the values of the two middle sample observations (and don’t do it by successive guessing!).
As a bonus assignment a former student checked if your professor gave a statisticallysignificant difference in grades between his male and female students. She based herstudy based on grades assigned in intermediate Econ courses (Econ 303, 305 and 317)and her sample included nm = 485 male students and nf = 264 female students. Theaverage grades received were xm = 84.6 and xf = 85.8 The population standad deviation were σ m = 12.0 and σ f = 11.4 8. From the same extra-credit study as in question 7 see above, this former student found that the proportion of female students in principle courses (Econ 203, 205) was ?̅? = 0.380, while the proportion of female students in intermediate courses (Econ 303, 305, 317) was ?̅? = 0.352. The principle courses sample size was np = 782, while the intermediate courses sample size was ni = 749. Test the hypothesis that female students are less in intermediate courses using a 90% confidence level and the p-value approach.
A random sample of 50 students was asked to estimate how much money they spent on textbooks in a year. The sample skewness of these amounts was found to be 0.83 and the sample kurtosis was 3.98. Test at the 10% level the null hypothesis that the population dis- tribution of amounts spent is normal.
A random sample of 100 measurements of the resistance of electronic components produced in a period of 1 week was taken. The sample skewness was 0.63 and the sample kurtosis was 3.85. Test the null hypothesis that the population distribution is normal.
Let ?1 denote true average tread life for a premium brand of P205/65R15 radial tire, and let ?2 denote the true average tread life for an economy brand of the same size. Test H0: ?1 − ?2 = 5000 versus Ha: ?1 − ?2 > 5000 at level 0.01, using the following data: m = 45, x = 42,100, s1 = 2400, n = 45, y = 36,200, and s2 = 1800.Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value.

In an experiment to determine the factors affecting tensile strength in steel plates, the tensile strength (in kg/mm2), the manganese content (in parts per thousand), and the thickness (in mm) were measured for a sample of 20 plates.The following MINITAB output presents the results of fitting the model Tensile strength = β0 + β1 Manganese + β2 Thickness. a) Find the P-value and conclude whether β1 > 3. Perform the appropriate hypothesis test. b) Find the P-value and conclude whether β2 < −0.1. Perform the appropriate hypothesis test. c) Find a 95% confidence interval for the coefficient of Manganese. Round the answers to three decimal places.
An electrical engineer wishes to determine if, among two specific municipal buildings in town, Building “North” and Building “South”, whether the tensile strength of pipes (in psi) is not the same in each of these two buildings. A sample of pipes was chosen at random from both Building “North” and Building “South”, respectively. Using α = 0.05, which of the following statistical test, or parameter, would be best for determining whether tensile strength of pipes (in psi) is not the same in each of these two buildings? (Assume all statistical assumptions met.) a) Binomial Distribution b) Population Difference in Means (i.e., Unpaired Data) c) The Chi-Squared Test of Independence d) Population Mean Difference (i.e., Paired Data)

1. What does it imply if if more values are concentrated above the mean? (Skewness) And would the value of skewness be less than, greater than, or equal to 0? 2. In case the data is highly skewed, can we still rely on the kurtosis coefficient? Why or why not? 3. Can the z-score be a real measure of dispersion?
An experiment to determine the effect of four different types of engine oil (A, B, C, and D) on the rolling friction coefficient of a car speed has been conducted. Three brands of car (Honda, Toyota, and Mazda) were chosen, and each engine oil was tested twice on each car, producing the following ANOVA output in Figure 2. i) How many treatments involved? Write down all the treatments ii) Identify the number of replication for each treatment. iii) Based on the ANOVA table above, find the values of W, X, Y and Z. iv) Test the interaction effect on rolling friction coefficient of car speed between the four different types of engine oil and the three different brands of car. v) Do we need to test for marginal effect? Give a reason.
A fisheries biologist collected a random sample of fish from a lake and conducted a chi-square goodness-of-fit test to see if the distribution of fish changed over time. The table below shows the distribution of fish that were put into the lake when it was originally stocked.
