4.26 The authors of the paper "Statistical Methods forAssessing Agreement Between Two Methods of ClinicalMeasurement" (International Journal of Nursing Studies[2010]: 931-936) compared two different instruments formeasuring a person's ability to breathe out air. (This mea-surement is helpful in diagnosing various lung disorders.)The two instruments considered were a Wright peak flowmeter and a mini-Wright peak flow meter. Seventeen people participated in the study, and for each person air flow wasmeasured once using the Wright meter and once using themini-Wright meter.Mini-Wright WrightMeterMini-Wright WrightMeterSubjectMeter SubjectMeter1.5124944428500434430395476520516600557741336438013142602674788.4424776.658650152591781044543316350423111243262641765617451427a. Suppose that the Wright meter is considered to providea better measure of air flow, but the mini-Wright meteris easier to transport and to use. If the two types ofmeters produce different readings but there is a strongrelationship between the readings, it would be possibleto use a reading from the mini-Wright meter to predictthe reading that the larger Wright meter would havegiven.

In 1990, 6.1% of job applicants who were tested for drugs failed the test. At the 0.01 significance level, test the claim that the failure rate is now lower if a simple random sample of 1620 current job applicants results in 68 failures (based on data from the American Management Association). Does the result suggest that fewer job applicants now use drugs? Answer all of the following questions. i. Hypothesis Statements ii. Test Type iii. Conditions iv. Level of Significance v. Critical Value vi. Test Statistic vii. p-value viii. Graph with level of significance, critical value, test statistic and p-value labeled ix. Conclusion with summary x. Possible error
The NAEP considers that a national average of 283 is an acceptable performance. Using α = .05, run a two-tail t-test for one sample to test Ho: µ=283 for the 2019 scores. Report the t-obt, df, and p-values. Would you reject the null hypothesis that the 2019 scores come from a population with average 283? If this is the case, does it come from a population from larger or smaller average?
In building an arena, steel bars with a mean ultimate tensile strength of 400 Megapascal (MPa) with a variance of 81 MPa were delivered by the manufactured. The project engineer tested 50 steel bars and found out that the mean ultimate tensile strength is 390 MPa. The decision for the extension of the contract with the manufacturer depends on the engineer. Test the hypothesis whether there is no significant difference between the two means using a two-tailed with a=0.01
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.

For a special pre-New Year's Eve show, a radio station personality has invited a small panel of prominent local citizens to help demonstrate to listeners the adverse effect of alcohol on reaction time, thus drinking an alcohol increases reaction time. The reaction times (in seconds) before and after consuming four drinks are in Sheet 11. Test a hypothesis to see if the showman claim is supported by the given data (use alpha=0.01 significance level).

To determine whether differencesexist between the average fill rates for the two tracks, a random sample of 25 bags fromTrack 1 and a random sample of 16 bags from Track 2 were recently selected. Each bag’sweight was measured and the following information measures from the samples arereported:Production ProductionTrack 1 Track 2n1 = 25 n2 = 16x2 = 40.02 x1 = 39.87 s1 = 0.59 s2 = 0.88 Supervision believes that the fill rates of the two tracks are normally distributed with equalvariances.Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the true mean difference between the twotracks.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2) Two independent simple random samples were selected from two normallydistributed populations with unequal variances yielded the following information:Sample 1…
