Worker Fatigue. A study by M. Chen et al. titled "Heat Stress Evaluation and Worker Fatigue in a Steel Plant" (American Industrial Hygiene Association, Vol. 64, pp. 352-359) assessed fatigue in steel- plant workers due to heat stress. A random sample of 29 casting work- ers had a mean post-work heart rate of 78.3 beats per minute (bpm). At the 5% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean post-work heart rate for casting workers ex- ceeds the normal resting heart rate of 72 bpm? Assume that the popu- lation standard deviation of post-work heart rates for casting workers is 11.2 bpm. Perform one mean Z procedure a. Hypothesis: (5 points) b. Test statistic: (5 points) c. Critical-value: (4 points) d. P Value (4 Points) e. Hypothesis test conclusion and interpretation: (2 points)

Does It Pay to Plead Guilty? The accompanying table summarizes randomly selected sample data for San Francisco defendants in burglary cases (based on data from “Does It Pay to Plead Guilty? Differential Sentencing and the Functioning of the Criminal Courts,” by Brereton and Casper, Law and Society Review, Vol. 16, No. 1). All of the subjects had prior prison sentences. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the sentence (sent to prison or not sent to prison) is independent of the plea. If you were an attorney defending a guilty defendant, would these results suggest that you should encourage a guilty plea?
In a study to determine if using low-intensity laser therapy reduces pain for orthodontic patients who are fitted with new braces, patients were randomly assigned to either a control group (who did not receive laser treatment) or an experimental group who did receive laser treatment.† The researchers found that the mean pain rating was lower for those in the laser treatment group than for those in the control group both two days and six days after receiving braces. The researchers used these data to determine if there was evidence to support the claim that the mean pain rating is lower for patients who receive the laser treatment. Answer the four key questions.
