Deep mixing is a ground improvement method developed for soft soils like clay, silt, and peat. Swedish civil engineers investigated the properties of soil improved by deep mixing with lime-cement columns in the journal Giorisk (Vol. 7, 2013). The mixed soil was tested by advancing a cylindrical rod with a cone tip down into the soil. During penetration, the cone penetrometer measures the cone tip resistance (megapascals, MPa). The researchers established that tip resistance for the deep mixed soil followed a normal distribution with u =2.2 MPa and o = 0.9 MPa. Complete parts a through c below. a. Find the probability that the tip resistance will fall between 1.5 and 3.9 MPa. The probability is . (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

The quality control engineer at Palmer Industries is interested in estimating the tensile strength of steel wire based on its outside diameter and the amount of molybdenum in the steel. As an experiment, she selected 25 pieces of wire, measured the outside diameters, and determined the molybdenum content. Then she measured the tensile strength of each piece. The results of the first four are recorded in the table. Tensile Strength Outside Diameter Amount of Molybdenum Place (PSI ) Y (mm) X1 (Units) X2 A 11 0.3 6 B 9 0.2 5 C 16 0.4 8 D 12 0.3 7 Using a statistical software package, the QC engineer determined the multiple regression equation to be Y’=-0.5+20X1+1X2. a) Based on the equation, what is the estimated tensile strength of a steel wire having an outside diameter of .35 mm and 6.4 units of molybdenum? b) Interpret the value of b1 in the equation.

A researcher hypothesizes that electrical stimulation of the lateral habenula will result in a decrease in food intake (in this case, chocolate chips) in rats. Rats undergo stereotaxic surgery and an electrode is implanted in the right lateral habenula. Following a ten day recovery period, rats (kept at 80 percent body weight) are tested for the number of chocolate chips consumed during a 10 minute period of time both with and without electrical stimulation. The testing conditions are counter balanced. Compute the appropriate t-test for the data provided below.

Researchers investigated how the size of a bowl affects how much ice cream people tend to scoop when serving themselves. At an "ice cream social," people were randomly given either a 17 fluid oz (503 mL) or a 34 fluid oz (1006 mL) bowl (both large enough that they would not be filled to capacity.) They were then invited to scoop as much ice cream as they liked. Did the bowl size change the selected portion size? The summaries are shown. Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusions. For assumptions and conditions that you cannot test, you may assume that they are sufficiently satisfied to proceed. (Assume a significance level of 0.10.)
An android phone manufacturer produces a new product variant of a smartphone which they claim as indestructible despite being dropped. They are claiming that the tensile strength of the newly produced smartphone is greater than twenty-five. Meanwhile, the quality assurance scientists and technicians conducted another test to assure the quality of the new smartphone variant. They can only test fourteen samples a day due to lack of manpower, so it was done in two batches. After twenty-eight days, the following tensile strengths were obtained from the two sample batches: 1st batch 2nd batch 25.3 25.4 24 24.6 24.1 24.3 24.6 25.8 25.6 25.9 26 26.1 25.2 25.4 25.4 25.3 25 25.1 26.7 26.3 26.2 26.1 24.9 24.8 25.7 24.9 26.8 25 1. Do the tensile strengths of the two batches has a significant difference? 2. Compute the value of P and verify if the smartphone company's claim is legitimate 3. If the confidence interval is ninety-five percent, establish the tensile…
