An industrial concern has experimented with several different mixtures of the fourcomponents—magnesium, sodium nitrate, strontium nitrate, and a binder—that comprise arocket propellant. The company has found that two mixtures, in particular, give higher flare illumination values than the others. Mixture 1 consists of a blend composed of the proportions.40, .10, .42, and .08, respectively, for the four components of the mixture; mixture 2 consists ofa blend using the proportions .60, .25, .10, and .05. Twenty different blends (10 of each mixture)are prepared and tested to obtain the flare-illumination values. These data appear here (in unitsof 1,000 candles).Mixture 1 185 192 201 215 170 190 175 172 198 202Mixture 2 221 210 215 202 204 196 225 230 214 217a. Plot the sample data. Which test(s) could be used to compare the meanillumination values for the two mixtures?b. Give the level of significance of the test and interpret your findings

Researchers wanted to determine whether fence lizards learned to avoid fire ants. To determine this, they gathered lizards from eastern Arkansas (where there were no fire ants), and from southern Alabama (which had been invaded by fire ants). The lizards were then exposed to fire ants, and researchers measured how long (in seconds) it took the lizards to flee. What does each dot represent? Choose the best answer. Choice 1:A difference in time to flee for a single lizard from Alabama, and a single lizard from Arkansas, assuming the null hypothesis is true. Choice 2:A difference in mean response times for one sample of lizards from Alabama, and one sample of lizards from Arkansas, which was likely to occur if the null hypothesis is true. Choice 3:A difference in response times for two lizards in our sample. Choice 4:The proportion of all lizards who will free from fire ants. Which Choice is most correct and why?
A manufacturer of floor polish conducted a consumer-preference experiment to determine which of five different floor polishes was the most appealing in appearance. A sample of 100 consumers viewed five patches of flooring that had each received one of the five polishes. Each consumer indicated the patch he or she preferred. The lighting and background were approximately the same for all patches. The results are given below. Solve the following using the p-value approach and solve using the classical approach. Polish A B C D E Total Frequency 26 16 16 21 21 100 (a) Complete the hypothesis test using ? = 0.10. (i) Find the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) (ii) Find the p-value.

The article in the ASCE Journal of Energy Engineering (1999, Vol. 125, pp.59-75) describes a study of the thermal inertia properties of autoclaved aerated concrete used as a building material. Five samples of the material were tested in a structure, and the average interior temperatures (°C) reported were as follows: 23.01, 22.22, 22.04, 22.62, and 22.59. Test that the average interior temperature is equal to 22.5°C using alpha (a) = 0.05. This problem is a test on what population parameter? What is the null and alternative hypothesis? What are the Significance level and type of test? What standardized test statistic will be used? What is the standard test statistic? What is the Statistical Decision? What is the statistical decision in the statement form?

A laundry detergent company wants to determine if a new formula of detergent, A, cleans better than the original formula, B. Researchers randomly assign 500 pieces of similarly soiled clothes to the two detergents, putting 250 pieces in each group. After washing the clothes, independent reviewers determine the cleanliness of the clothes on a scale of 1–10, with 10 being the cleanest. The researchers calculate the proportion of clothes in each group that receive a rating of 7 or higher. For detergent A, 228 pieces of clothing received a 7 or higher. For detergent B, 210 pieces of clothing received a rating of 7 or higher. Assuming the conditions for inference are met, what is the 90% confidence interval for the difference in proportions of clothes that receive a rating of 7 or higher for the two detergents?
