A rodentologist investigating various aspects of the aging process wanted to see whether staying “lean and mean” that is, being under normal body weight would lengthen life span. She randomly assigned newborn rats from a highly inbred line to one of three diets: (1) unlimited access to food, (2) 90% of the amount of food that a rat of that size would normally eat, (3) 80% of the amount of food that a rat of that size would normally eat. She maintained the rats on the three diets throughout their lives and recorded their life spans (in years). Complete a Turkey's post HOC test to determine which one is significantly different
Economists theorize that the recent recession has affected men more than women because men are typically employed in industries that have been hit hardest by the recession. Women, on the other hand, are typically employed in services which are considered more recession resistant. A sample of
165
men and a sample of
140
women were drawn. In those samples,
20
men were unemployed, and
13
of the women were unemployed. Complete parts a and b below.

Of those: 3431 were admitted to the Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences, 661 were admitted to the School of Engineering, 402 were admitted to the College of Business Administration, 253 were admitted to the School of Computing and Information, 180 were admitted to the School of Nursing. Part a ) Given the size of the group of first-year students (here, we can call this the population), can we assume independence if we choose a sample of two students? Possible answer choices: No because N < 10n Yes because N > 10n Part b) If you were to choose two students at random and assume that the sampling is approximately independent, what is the probability that both students are in the College of Business Administration?

If the animal is in the meadows on one observation, then it is four times as likely to be in the meadows as the woods on the next observation.Assume that state 1 is being in the meadows and that state 2 is being in the woods. (A) If the animal is initially in the woods, what is the probability that it is in the woods on the next three observations? (B) If the animal is initially in the woods, what is the probability that it is in the meadow on the next three observations?arrow_forwardA college finds that 12% of students have taken a distance learning class, 24% of students arepart-time students, and of the part-time students, 25% have taken a distance learning class.(a) What percentage of students are both part-time and have taken a distance learning class?(b) What percentage of the students who have taken a distance learning class are part-time?arrow_forwardA nationwide survey of 1000 adults found that 50% of respondents favored a plan to break up the 12 megabanks, which then controlled about 69% of the banking industry.

- Eleven and one-half percent of a group of 1,200 motors are found to be overloaded. How many are not overloaded?arrow_forwardA farmer would like to evaluate Miracle Grow when used on his potted daisy plants. He sets up 20 plants in a room all facing the same window, obtaining the same amount of sunlight, and waters them identically each day. For a month, he monitors how much each plant grows. Then, he adds Miracle Grow to every pot and monitors how much each plant grows during a month with Miracle Grow. At the end of two months, he discovers that 14 plants grew more with Miracle Grow. Test the hypothesis that Miracle Grow increases plant growth (using an alpha level of .01). a) Is this a one-tailed or two-tailed test? ( b) State the null hypothesis. c) State the alternative hypothesis. d) Find the critical value(s). e) Calculate the obtained statistic. f) Calculate the P-Value (significance) of the obtained statistic). g) Make a decision. h) What does your decision mean?arrow_forwardChapter 3, Section 1, Exercise 001 State whether the quantity described is a parameter or a statistic and give the correct notation.Average household income for all houses in the US, using data from the US Census.arrow_forward

H0: μNurses ≠ μTeachersarrow_forwardA varsity football player successfully scores 84% of all the field goals he kicks during in-season games. Assume each kick is independent of the others. c) Suppose that the varsity football player is unable to play for several weeks due to an injury. When he returned, he only scores 5 field goals in his next 10 kicks. Is this evidence that his success rate is now less than 84%? Explain.arrow_forward
