A manufacturer claims that the tensile strength of a certain composite (in MPa) has the lognormal distribution with μ = 5 and σ = 0.5. Let X be the strength of a randomly sampled specimen of this composite. a) If the claim is true, what is P(X < 20)? b) Based on the answer to part (a), if the claim is true, would a strength of 20 MPa be unusually small? c) If you observed a tensile strength of 20 MPa, would this be convincing evidence that the claim is false? Explain. d) If the claim is true, what is P(X < 130)? e) Based on the answer to part (d), if the claim is true, would a strength of 130 MPa be unusually small? f) If you observed a tensile strength of 130 MPa, would this be convincing evidence that the claim is false? Explain.

A researcher has developed a new drug designed to reduce blood pressure. In an experiment, 22 subjects were assigned randomly to the treatment group and received the new experimental drug. The other 24 subjects were assigned to the control group and received a standard, well-known treatment. After a suitable period, the reduction in blood pressure for each subject was recorded. A summary of these data is: nn x¯x¯ ss Treatment group (new drug) 22 23.48 8.01 Control group (old drug) 24 18.52 7.15 Without using software, how would you estimate the number of degrees of freedom for this problem?

Average IQ scores for young school children are known to be 100 (SD = 15). However, the literature indicates that children’s intelligence may be decreased if their mothers have German measles during pregnancy. Using hospital records, a researcher obtained a sample of n = 25 school children whose mothers all had German measles during their pregnancies.

Researchers interested in lead exposure due to car exhaust sampled the blood of 52 police officers subjected to constant inhalation of automobile exhaust fumes while working traffic enforcement in a primarily urban environment. The blood samples of these officers had an average lead concentration of 124.32 µg/l and a SD of 37.74 µg/l; a previous study of individuals from a nearby suburb, with no history of exposure, found an average blood level concentration of 35 µg/l. Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for the average blood concentration level of police officers contain 35 µg/l? Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for this difference contain 0? Explain why or why not.
A theoretical justification based on a certain material failure mechanism underlies the assumption that ductile strength X of a material has a lognormal distribution. Suppose the parameters are μ = 4.8 and σ = 0.11. What is the value of median ductile strength? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) If ten different samples of an alloy steel of this type were subjected to a strength test, how many would you expect to have strength of at least 125? If the smallest 5% of strength values were unacceptable, what would the minimum acceptable strength be?
