An engineer in charge of a production process that produces a stain for outdoor decks has designed a study to test the research hypotheses that an additive to the stain will produce an increase in the ability of the stain to resist water absorption. The mean absorption rate of the stain without the additive is 40 units. The engineer places that stain with the additive on n=50 pieces of decking material and records y- = 36.5 and s = 13.1. Let u denote the mean absorption rate of the stain. You must state the null and the alternative hypotheses.

A drug company maintains that a new drug G for a certain disease has a 50% cure rate as compared with drug H, which has only a 25% cure rate. You are asked to design a clinical trial comparing drugs G and H. Using the following table, estimate the number of patients needed in each therapy group to detect such a difference with alpha=0.05, two-sided, and beta=0.20.
A survey of 90 recently delivered women on the rolls of a county welfare department revealed that 27 had a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection. What is the critical value of z if we need to conclude that the population proportion with a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection is less than 0.25.
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

The aging Neotropical termites (Neocapritermes taracua) secrete a sticky, blue-colored liquid that they spew to intruding termites. The younger Neotropical termites secrete a liquid that lacks the blue component, so it is white in appearance. In an experiment that measured the toxicity of the blue substance, the researchers placed one drop of either the blue liquid or the white liquid on individuals of a second termite species, Labiotermes labralis. Of the 41 Labiotermes labralis that got the blue drop, 37 were immobilized. Of the 40 Labiotermes labralis that got the white drop, 9 were immobilized. Is the blue liquid toxic compared to the white liquid?
The molecular weight of a particular polymer should fall between 750 and 1,035. Thirty samples of this material were analyzed with the results X-bar = 902 and s = 90. Assume that molecular weight is normally distributed.
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)

Records for the last 15 years have shown that the average rainfall in a certain region of the country, for the month of March, to be 1.20 inches, with s = 0.45 inches. A second region had an average rainfall of 1.35 inches, with s = 0.54. estimate the difference of the true average rainfalls in those two regions as a 95% C.I. with the assumption of normal populations and unequal variances.
One effect of the pesticide DDT upon birds is to inhibit the production of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, which controls calcium metabolism. It is believed that this causes eggshells to be thinner and weaker than normal and makes the eggs more prone to breakage. An experiment was conducted where 16 sparrow hawks were fed a mixture of 3 ppm dieldrin and 15 ppm DDT (a combination often found in contaminated prey). The first egg laid by each bird was measured, and the mean shell thickness was found to be 0.19 mm. A “normal” eggshell has a mean thickness of 0.2 mm. What are the null and alternative hypotheses?
