A suburban hotel derives its revenue from its hotel and restaurant operations. Theowners are interested in the relationship between the number of rooms occupied on anightly basis and the revenue per day in the restaurant. Below is a sample of 25 days(Monday through Thursday) from last year showing the restaurant income and numberof rooms occupied.
Let X denote the courtship time for a randomly selected female-malepair of mating scorpion flies (time from the beginning of interactionuntil mating). Suppose the mean value of X is 120 min and the standarddeviation of Xis 110 min (suggested by data in the article "Should I Stayor Should I Go? Condition- and Status-Dependent Courtship Decisions inthe Scorpion Fly Panorpa Cognate"(Animal Behavior, 2009: 491-497)). a. Is it plausible that X is normally distributed?b. For a random sample of 50 such pairs, what is the (approximate)probability that the sample mean courtship time is between 100min and 125 min? c. For a random sample of 50 such pairs, what is the (approximate)probability that the total courtship time exceeds 150 hr?d. Could the probability requested in (b) be calculated from thegiven information if the sample size were 15 rather than 50?Explain.
A researcher is interested in studying the effects of altitude on cognitive performance (e.g., perception, memory, problem solving, etc.). The researcher finds a group of experienced mountain climbers (n = 10) who volunteer to participate in the study. All of the climbers are tested at three different altitudes—at sea level (in the researchers’ laboratory at the University of California, San Diego), at the base camp (9,000 feet above sea level), and at 23,000 feet above sea level (at the peak of Mt. Denali in Alaska). At each location, the climbers perform a memory task (remember a list of 16 non-words like “biv”), and the accuracy of their memory is recorded (i.e., # of correctly recalled words). a. pls name the independent variable, dependent variable, levels of the IV, and the type of experiment design of this study (i.e., b/w- or w/i-subject design ) b. on what level of measurement is accuracy of memory assessed? (i.e., is it on nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio?

A sample of 100 mortgages approved during the current year showed that 31 were issued to a single-earner family or individual. The historical percentage is 25 percent. At the .05 level of significance in a right-tailed test, has the percentage of single-earner or individual mortgages risen? (a-1) H0: π ≤ .25 versus H1: π > .25. Choose the right option. Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645 Reject H0 if zcalc < 1.645 a b Calculate the test statistic. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
A study was made of 1,057 cases of poisoning in children treated as inpatients at Milwaukee Children's Hospital from 1962 through 1968. Data on date of occurrence, age and sex of the child, and type of agent involved were recorded and analyzed by standard statistical methods. Poisoning was due to ingestion of aspirin in 35 per cent of the children studied and to the ingestion of hydrocarbon distillates in 18 per cent. A statistically significant male dominance was found for ingestion of hydrocarbons; age-specific peaks were found for some categories. Trends as to the relative and absolute frequencies of each specific poison from one year to the next were noted; possible reasons for increasing or decreasing trends are discussed. Is this study descriptive or inferential? Explain your answer. What are the variables used in the study? In your opinion, what level of measurement was used to obtain the data from the variables? Does the article define the population? If so, how is it…

Water availability is of prime importance in the life cycle of most reptiles. To determine the rate of evaporative water loss of a certain species of lizard at a particular desert site, 34 such lizards were randomly collected, weighed and placed under the appropriate experimental conditions. After 24 hours, each lizard was removed, weighed, and its total water loss was calculated by subtracting its body weight after treatment from its initial body weight. Previous studies have shown that the relative frequency distribution of water loss for this species of lizard has a mean of 3.1 grams and a s.d. of 0.8 gram b) What is the probability that x is less than 2.7 grams?
Cell Phones and Cancer In a study of 420,095 Danish cell phone users, 135 subjects developed cancer of the brain or nervous system (based on data from theJournal of the National Cancer Institute as reported in USA Today).Test the claim of a somewhat common belief that such cancers are affected by cell phone use. That is, test the claim that cell phone users develop cancer of the brain or nervous system at a rate that is different from the rate of 0.0340% for people who do not use cell phones. Because this issue has such great importance, use a 0.005 significance level. Based on these results, should cell phone users be concerned about cancer of the brain or nervous system?
Test the hypothesis that the average content of containers of a particular machine oil is 10 liters, if the contents of random sample of 10 containers are: 10.1, 9.3, 9.7, 10.2, 10.1, 9.9, 9.5, 10.2, 9.8, and 10.1. Use 0.01 level of significance. Assume to be normally distributed data.
A researcher has observed 500 vehicles at a stop sign in a suburban neighbourhood and recorded the type of vehicle (sedan, hatchback, bakkie) and driver behaviour at the stop sign (complete stop, near stop, “ran” the stop sign). At the 0.05 level of significance, could there be some relationship between driver behaviour and the type of vehicle being driven? Define the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis. A. H1: Driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle are independent vs H0: A relationship exists between driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle B. H0: A relationship exists between driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle vs H1: No relationship exists between driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle C. H0: Driver’s behaviour and dependent on the type of vehicle vs H1: Driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle are independent D. H0: Driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle are independent vs H1: A relationship exists between driver’s behaviour and type of vehicle
