Process Capability. R. Morris and E. Watson studied various aspects of process capability in the paper “Determining Process Capability in a Chemical Batch Process” (Quality Engineering, Vol. 10(2), pp. 389–396). In one part of the study, the researchers compared the variability in product of a particular piece of equipment to a known analytic capability to decide whether product consistency could be improved. The following data were obtained for 10 batches of product. 30.1 30.7 30.2 29.3 31.0 29.6 30.4 31.2 28.8 29.8 Construct a stem-and-leaf diagram for these data with a. one line per stem.b. two lines per stem.c. Which stem-and-leaf diagram do you find more useful? Why?

Recently, researchers have begun to focus on the relationship between potentially toxic environmental exposures in children to a number of adverse health outcomes. Suppose one such researcher wants to investigate the relationship between lead levels in soil (micrograms/dL) and BMI (kg/m2). The following table represents a SRS of households with the corresponding exterior lead levels and BMI of a randomly sampled child in the home. Lead levels BMI 13.6 19.7 14.3 19.9 9.7 20.1 9.4 22.1 11.4 19.8 10.9 21.6 A) Write out the null and alternative hypotheses for a formal test of significance testing the correlation between the two variables and calulate a t statistic and interpret your pvalue and results.
Downs and Abwender (2002) evaluated soccer players and swimmers to determine whether the routine blows to the head experienced by soccer players produced long term neurological deficits. In the study, neurological tests were administered to mature soccer players and swimmers and the results indicated significant differences. In a similar study, a researcher obtained the following data. Swimmers Soccer Players 10 7 8 4 7 9 9 3 13 7 7 6 12 a)Are the neurological test scores significantly lower for the soccer player than for the swimmers in the control groups? Use a one-tailed test with = .05. b)Compute the value of r² (percentage of variance accounted for) these data.
An automotive engineer is investigating two different types of metering devices for an electronic fuel injection system to determine whether they differ in their fuel mileage performance. The system is installed on 10 different cars, and a test is run with each metering device on each car. The data is provided below: Metering Device Car 1 2 1 17.6 16.8 2 19.4 20.0 3 18.2 17.6 4 17.1 16.4 5 15.3 16.0 6 15.9 15.9 7 16.3 16.5 8 18.0 18.4 9 17.3 16.4 10 19.1 20.1 Is there a significant difference between the means of the two metering devices? Use . Interpret the result in the context of the problem. An article in the journal Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Materials (Vol. 6, 1989) reported the results of an analysis of the weight of calcium in standard cement and cement doped with lead. Reduced levels of calcium would indicate that the hydration mechanism in the cement is blocked…
A company institutes an exercise break for its workers to see if it will improve job satisfaction, as measured by a questionnaire that assesses workers' satisfaction before and after the implementation of the program.

A Canadian study measuring depression level in teens (as reported in the Journal of Adolescence, vol. 25, 2002) randomly sampled 112 male teens and 101 female teens, and scored them on a common depression scale (higher score representing more depression). The researchers suspected that the mean depression score for male teens is higher than for female teens, and wanted to check whether data would support this hypothesis. If μ1 and μ2 represent the mean depression score for male teens and female teens respectively, which of the following is an appropriate pair of hypotheses in this case? Check all that apply.
