6.44 An entomologist is investigating which of two fumigants, F1 or F2, is more effective incontrollingparasities in tobacco plants. To compare the fumigants, nine fields of differingsoil characteristics, drainage, and amount of wind shield were planted with tobacco. Eachfield was then divided into two plots of equal area. Fumigant F1 was randomly assigned toone plot in each field and F2 to the other plot. Fifty plants were randomly selected from eachfield, 25 from each plot, and the numbers of parasites were counted. The data are in the followingtable.Field 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9Fumigant F1 77 40 11 31 28 50 53 26 33Fumigant F2 76 38 10 29 27 48 51 24 32a. What are the populations of interest?b. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the meanlevels of parasitesfor the two fumigants? Use a 5 .10. Report the p-value for theexperimental data.c. Estimate the size of the difference in the mean numbers of parasites between thetwo fumigants using a 90% confidence interval. 6.44 An entomologist is investigating which of two fumigants, F1 or F2, is more effective incontrolling parasities in tobacco plants.

A simple random sample of heights of 6400Englishmen has a mean of 67.85 inches and SD 2.56 inches, while a simple random sample of heights of 1600 Australians has a mean of 68.55 inches and SD of 2.52 inches. D the data indicate that Australians are, on the average, taller than Englishmen?
31% of all pygmy softshell tortoises have stripes on their shells. A herpetologist in Cititon collects a sample of 28 pygmy softshell tortoises and finds that 8 of them have stripes on their shells. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at a significance of alpha = 0.05, that the proportion of pygmy softshell tortoises in Cititon with stripes on their shells is less than 31%? What is the claim? What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternative hypothesis? What is the test statistic? What is/are the critical value(s)? Do we reject the null hypothesis? What conclusion do we draw? What is the P-value for the problem above?

In a study examining overweight and obese college football players, Mathews and Wagner(2008) found that on average both offensive and defensive linemen exceeded the at-risk criterionfor body mass index (BMI). BMI is a ratio of body weight to height squared and is commonlyused to classify people as overweight or obese. Any value greater than 30 kg/m2 is considered tobe at risk. In the study, a sample of n = 17 offensive linemen averaged M = 34.4 with a standarddeviation of s = 4.0. A sample of n = 19 defensive linemen averaged M = 31.9 with s = 3.5a. Use a single-sample t test to determine whether the offensive linemen are significantly abovethe at-risk criterion for BMI. Use a one-tailed test with α = .01.b. Use a single-sample t test to determine whether the defensive linemen are significantly abovethe at-risk criterion for BMI. Use a one-tailed test with α = .01.c.

The manufacturer of a new racecar engine claims that the proportion of engine failures due to overheating for this new engine, (p1)(�1), will be no higher than the proportion of engine failures due to overheating of the old engines, (p2)(�2). To test this statement, NASCAR took a random sample of 235235 of the new racecar engines and 190190 of the old engines. They found that 2424 of the new racecar engines and 1111 of the old engines failed due to overheating during the test. Does NASCAR have enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim about the new racecar engine? Use a significance level of α=0.1�=0.1 for the test.
