Chapter 12.5, Problem 58E
The Turbine Oil Oxidation Test (TOST) and the Rotating Bomb Oxidation Test (RBOT) are two different procedures for evaluating the oxidation stability of steam turbine oils. The article “Dependence of Oxidation Stability of Steam Turbine Oil on Base Oil Composition” (J. of the Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engrs., Oct. 1997: 19–24) reported the accompanying observations on x = TOST time (hr) and y = RBOT time (min) for 12 oil specimens.
| TOST | 4200 | 3600 | 3750 | 3675 | 4050 | 2770 |
| RBOT | 370 | 340 | 375 | 310 | 350 | 200 |
| TOST | 4870 | 4500 | 3450 | 2700 | 3750 | 3300 |
| RBOT | 400 | 375 | 285 | 225 | 345 | 285 |
- a. Calculate and interpret the value of the sample
correlation coefficient (as do the article’s authors). - b. How would the value of r be affected if we had let x = RBOT time and y = TOST time?
- c. How would the value of r be affected if RBOT time were expressed in hours?
- d. Construct normal probability plots and comment.
- e. Carry out a test of hypotheses to decide whether RBOT time and TOST time are linearly related.

The depth of wetting of a soil is the depth to which water content will increase owing to
extemal factors. The article "Discussion of Method for Evaluation of Depth of Wetting in
Residential Areas" (J. Nelson, K. Chao, and D. Overton, Journal of Geotechnical and
Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2011:293-296) discusses the relationship between depth of
wetting beneath a structure and the age of the structure. The article presents measurements
of depth of wetting, in meters, and the ages, in years, of 21 houses, as shown in the
following table.

Wire electrical-discharge machining (WEDM) is a process used to manufacture conductive hard metal components. It uses a continuously moving wire that serves as an electrode. Coating on the wire electrode allows for cooling of the wire electrode core and provides animproved cutting performance. The article “High-Performance Wire Electrodes for Wire Electrical-Discharge Machining—A Review” (J. of Engr. Manuf.,2012: 1757–1773) gave the following sample observationson total coating layer thickness (in mm) of eightwire electrodes used for WEDM:21 16 29 35 42 24 24 25Calculate a 99% CI for the standard deviation of thecoating layer thickness distribution.

Captopril is a drug designed to lower systolic blood pressure. When subjects were treated with this drug, their systolic blood pressure readings (in mm Hg) were measured before and after the drug was taken. Results are given in the accompanying table (based on data from “Essential Hypertension: Effect of an Oral Inhibitor of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme”, by MacGregor et al., BMJ, Vol. 2). Using a 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that captopril has an effect on systolic blood pressure?

- A study published by Babcock and Marks (2010) showed that the average full-time U.S. college student studied for μ = 14 hours per week (SD = 4.8 hours per week) in 2005. We want to know if this average has changed in the past 15 years. In other words, we are going to do a study in which we try to determine whether there has been an impact of the passage of time on the amount of time college students spend studying. We selected a sample of n = 64 of today’s college students and find that they spent an average of M = 12.5 hours per week studying. Does this sample indicate a significant change in the number of hours spent studying?
