A trucking firm is considering the installation of a new, low-restriction engine air filter for its long-haul trucks, but doesn’t want to make the switch unless the new filter can be shown to improve the fuel economy of these vehicles. A test is set up in which each of 10 trucks makes the same run twice once with the old filtration system and once with the new version. Given the sample results shown below, use the 0.05 level of significance in determining whether the new filtration system could be superior. Truck Number Current Filter (mpg) New Filter (mpg) 1 7.6 7.3 2 4.1 7.2 3 10.4 6.8 4 6.9 10.6 5 5.6 8.8 6 7.9 8.7 7 5.4 5.7 8 5.7 8.7 9 5.5 8.9 10 5.3 7.1 Do reject or fail to reject H0?

An epidemiologist is worried about the prevalence of the flu in East Vancouver and the potential shortage of vaccines for the area. She will need to provide a recommendation for how to allocate the vaccines appropriately across the city. She takes a simple random sample of 360 people living in East Vancouver and finds that 42 have recently had the flu. The epidemiologist will recommend East Vancouver as a location for one of the vaccination programs if her sample data provide sufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that the true proportion of people who have recently had the flu is greater than 0.06. A test of hypothesis is conducted. What is the null hypothesis?A. The true proportion of residents who have recently had the flu is greater than 0.06.B. The sample proportion of residents who have recently had the flu is greater than 0.06.C. The true proportion of residents who have recently had the flu is 0.06.D. The sample proportion of residents who have recently had the flu is…

Independent random samples of 32 people living on the west side of a city and 30 people living on the east side of a city were taken to determine if the income levels of west side residents are significantly different from the income levels of east side residents. Given the testing statistics below, determine if the data provides sufficient evidence to conclude that the income levels of west side residents are significantly different from the income levels of east side residents, at the 2% significance level. H0:μw=μeHa:μw≠μe t0=2.364 t0.01=±2.099 Select the correct answer below: No; the test statistic is not between the critical values. No; the test statistic is between the critical values. Yes; the test statistic is not between the critical values. Yes; the test statistic is between the critical values.

Two types of flares are tested and their burning times (in minutes) are recorded. Summary statistics are given below.Brand Xn=35x = 19.4 mins = 1.4 min Brand Yn=40x = 15.1 mins = 0.8 min Use a 0.08 significance level to test the claim that the two samples are from populations with the same mean. Use the traditional method or the P Value method of hypothesis testing.
