A consumer group is investigating a producer of diet meals to examine if its prepackaged meals actually contain the advertised 6 ounces of protein in each package. Based on the following data, is there any evidence that the meals do not contain the advertised amount of protein? Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of
When companies are designing a new product, one of the steps typically taken is to see how potential buyers react to a picture or prototype of the proposed product. The product-development team for a notebook computer company has shown picture A to a large sample of potential buyers and picture B to another, asking each person to indicate what they "would expect to pay" for such a product. The data resulting from the two pictures are provided in file (sheet 6). Using the 0.05 level of significance, determine whether the prototypes might not really differ in terms of the price that potential buyers would expect to pay.

Studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids have a wide variety of health benefits. Omega-3 oils can be found in foods such as fish, walnuts, and flaxseed. A company selling milled flaxseed advertises that one tablespoon of the product contains, on average, at least 3800 mg of ALNA, the primary omega-3. a) The company plans to conduct a test to ensure that there is sufficient evidence that its claimiscorrect. Tobesafe,thecompanywantstomakesurethatevidenceshowsthe average is higher than 3800 mg. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? b) Suppose, instead, that a consumer organization plans to conduct a test to see if there is evidence against the claim that the product contains an average of 3800 mg per tablespoon. The consumer organization will only take action if it finds evidence that the claim made by the company is false and that the actual average amount of omega-3 is less than 3800 mg. What are the null and alternative hypotheses?

Suppose a sports blogger wrote an article claiming that a majority of adults from this country believe that colleges and universities with big sports programs place too much emphasis on athletics over academics. Does this confidence interval support the blogger's claim? Explain your reasoning. A. No, it is not a plausible claim because the confidence interval contains 50%. B.

Reducing scrap of 4-foot planks of hardwood is an important factor in reducing cost at a wood-flooring manufacturing company. Accordingly, engineers at Lumberworks are investigating a potential new cutting method involving lateral sawing that may reduce the scrap rate. To examine its viability, samples of 600 and 500 planks, respectively, were examined under the old and new methods. Sixty-one of the 600 planks were scrapped under the old method, whereas 36 of the 500 planks were scrapped under the new method. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table)a. Construct the 99% confidence interval for the difference between the population scrap rates between the old and new methods, respectively. (Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
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…

The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) received a complaint from recreational fishermen that a community was releasing sewage into the river where they fished. These types of releases lower the level of dissolved oxygen in the river and hence cause damage to the fish residing in the river. An inspector from the DNR designs a study to investigate the fishermen’s claim. Fifteen water samples are selected at locations on the river upstream from the community and fifteen samples are selected downstream from the community. The dissolved oxygen readings in parts per million (ppm) are given in the following table.Upstream 5.2 4.8 5.1 5.0 4.9 4.8 5.0 4.7 4.7 5.0 4.6 5.2 5.0 4.9 4.7, Downstream 3.2 3.4 3.7 3.9 3.6 3.8 3.9 3.6 4.1 3.3 4.5 3.7 3.9 3.8 3.7 a.In order for the discharge to have an impact on fish health, there needs to be at least a 0.5 ppm reduction in the dissolved oxygen. Do the data provide sufficient evidence that there is a large enough reduction in the mean dissolved oxygen…
A hospital conducted a study of the waiting time in its emergency room. The hospital has a main campus and three satellite locations. Management had a business objective of reducing waiting time for emergency room cases that did not require immediate attention. To study this, a random sample of 15 emergency room cases that did not require immediate attention at each location was selected on a particular day, and the waiting times (measured from check into when the patient was called into the clinic area) were collected and stored in the table. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence of a difference in the mean waiting times in the four locations?

Suppose a researcher is interested inthe effectiveness in a new childhood exercise program implemented in a SRS of schools across a particular county. In order to test the hypothesis that the new program decreases BMI (Kg/m2), the researcher takes a SRS of children from schools where the program is employed and a SRS from schools that do not employ the program and compares the results. Assume the following table represents the SRSs of students and their BMIs. Student intervention group BMI (kg/m2) Student control group BMI (kg/m2) A 18.6 A 21.6 B 18.2 B 18.9 C 19.5 C 19.4 D 18.9 D 22.6 E 24.1 F 23.6 A) Assuming that all the necessary conditions are met (normality, independence, etc.) carry out the appropriate statistical test to determine if the new exercise program is effective. Use an alpha level of 0.05. Do not assume equal variances.B) Construct a 95% confidence interval about your estimate for the average difference in BMI between the groups.
What Proportion of College Students Are Satisfied with Their Overall Academic Expereince? Exercise 2.16 introduces a survey of 5204 first-year full-time college students in the US. The survey was administered at the end of the first year, and 4122 of the students in the sample said that they were satisfied with their overall academic experience during the first year. Does the data from this sample provide evidence that more than 75% of US full-time students are satisfied with their overall academic experience at the end of their first year? Give all details of the hypothesis test. Test-statistic = (round to the nearest whole)p-value = (round to three decimal places)Conclusion:. Reject H0; We cannot conclude that more than 75% are satisfied. Do not reject H0; More than 75% of US students are satisfied with their overall academic experience. Do not reject H0; We cannot conclude that more than 75% are satisfied. Reject H0; More than 75% of US…
