The state of California has a mean annual rainfall of 22 inches, whereas the states of New York has a mean annual rainfall of 42 inches. Assume that the standard deviation for both states is 8 inches. A sample of 30 years of rainfall for California and a sample of 45 years of rainfall for New York has been taken. If required, round your answer to three decimal places.

Do the sales prices of houses in a given community vary systematically with their sizes (as measured in square feet)? Answer this question by estimating a simple regression equation where the sales price of the house is the dependent variable, and the size of the house is the explanatory variable. Use the sample data given in P13_06.xlsx. Interpret your estimated equation, the associated R-square value, and the associated standard error of estimate.
The director of research and development is testing a new drug. She wants to know if there is evidence at the 0.02 level that the drug stays in the system for less than 368 minutes. For a sample of 78 patients, the mean time the drug stayed in the system was 363 minutes. Assume the variance is known to be 529. State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.

A well-known multinational FMCG produces more than fifty products and sells them in the market. Out of fifty products one is mineral water for drinking purpose and supplies different size pack bottles in the market. Product manager observed that, during hot days the sale of water is more as compared to the normal days. He started the collection of data of weekly sale of water and the average weekly temperature. Product manager was interested in developing a relationship between sales and temperature; therefore, he discussed and shared the following data with you
Prior to conducting double exponential smoothing a simple linear regression is conducted and the trend equation is Y=42+38.3t, so the smoothed constant process value should be C0=38.3 and the smoothed trend value should be T0=42.? TRUE OR FALSE?
A manufacturing company produces steel rods. The length of these rods is critical to their customers. The company aims to manufacture rods with a mean length of 150 cm. However, due to variability in the manufacturing process, the lengths of the rods follow a normal distribution. The company's quality control department samples 30 rods and finds that they have a mean length of 151 cm and a standard deviation of 2 cm. Calculate the Process Capability Index (Cp) and the Process Performance Index (Ppk) for this process. Assume the customer's specification limits are 147 cm and 153 cm for the length of the rods.
