Control Charts for p. In Exercises 5-12, use the given process data to construct a control chart for p. In each case, use the three out-of-control criteria listed near the beginning of this section and determine whether the process is within statistical control. If it is not, identify which of the three out-of-control criteria apply.
6. Euro Coins Repeat Exercise 5, assuming that the size of each batch is 100 instead of 10,000. Compare the control chart to the one found for Exercise 5. Comment on the general quality of the manufacturing process described in Exercise 5 compared to the manufacturing process described in this exercise.

- Identify the type of problem most likely to occur when each of the sampling experiments or methods: Treatment is administered to all members of the sample, and the results are observed and measured. a) placebo effect b) nonresponse c)undercoverage d) response biasarrow_forwardDetermine if the process appears to be within statistical control. If not, state the reason why not.arrow_forwardWhich of the following best describes what a meta-analysis is. A) Human subjects are chosen and randomized into either an experimental group or a control group. B) An analysis that combines/summarizes the results of several separate but similar studies in order to evaluate results from the combined data. C) A study that is typically performed on animals to understand how chemical components affect our diet and healtharrow_forward
- A bank branch located in a commercial district of a city has the business objective of developing an improved process for serving customers during the noon-to-1:00 P.M. lunch period. The waiting time, in minutes, is defined as the time the customer enters the line to when he or she reaches the teller window. Data are collected from a sample of 15 customers during this hour. Another bank branch, located in a residential area, is also concerned with the noon-to-1 P.M. lunch hour. The waiting times, in minutes, are also collected from a sample of 15 customers during this hour. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

- In an attempt to cut university expenditure, the Dean at a University inquires about reducing the four month training period of dogs at the BCIE. The trainers at the BCIE agree with the proposal but only if the dogs can reach the 70% success threshold that is required of dogs working with anxiety patients. The trainers design an experiment in which they measure the training success of 20 dogs after one month, two months, three months and four months of training. The attached CSV file contains the data that was collected for this experiment. What can you conclude from the results of this experiment? Results: (please check attache picture ) I would love help with: Reporting the complete results (including assumption checks) in APA style.arrow_forwardIn an attempt to cut university expenditure, the Dean at a University inquires about reducing the four month training period of dogs at the BCIE.

Thank you!arrow_forwardQSR Magazine published the latest results of its annual quick serve resturant drive-thru study. One aspect of the study examined the customer drive-thru wait times for various brands. The drive-thru wait times for random samples of customers at Chick-fil-A, McDonald's, and KFC are given in the table below. Brand Customers drive-thru wait times (in seconds) Chick-fil-A 485 496 489 460 487 477 495 McDonald's 356 362 343 327 369 351 350 KFC 291 269 251 283 286 294 278 (a) Conduct a hypothesis test using a=0.05 to determine whether the mean drive-thru wait times of customers at Chick-fila-A, and KFC are the same. Assume that drive thru wait times for each of these brands reasonably follow a normal distribution. (b) Use the sample data collected in Problem 4 to construct…arrow_forward
- 9. A data set from a study that examined the effect of a specific diet on blood pressure is provided on the course web page. Participants (n = 72) were randomly assigned either to a group that was put on the diet (Diet = Present) or to a group that was not put on the diet (Diet = Absent), and researchers wanted to know whether the diet had a significant impact on blood pressure. The other variables in the data set are drug (X, Y, or Z) and a biofeedback condition (present or absent), but we wish to focus on the diet effect here. Test whether there is a statistically significant difference in mean blood pressure between the diet groups. Report the appropriate test statistic, df, and p-value. Biofeedback Drug Diet BldPres Present X Absent 170 Present X Absent 175 Present X Absent 165 Present X Absent 180 Present X Absent 160 Present X Absent 158 Present X Present 161 Present X Present 173 Present X Present 157 Present X Present 152 Present X Present 181 Present…arrow_forwardPost a clear statement of the results of the most appropriate statistical analysis and the scientific meaning of that result. be sure to report the type of test used, the test statistic, the degrees of freedom, and the p-value.
