In order to determine whether there are significant differences in the durability of three makes of computers, samples of size n=5 are selected from each make and the frequency of repair during the first year of purchase is observed. The results are as given in the adjoining table. In view of the data, what conclusions can you draw?
a) Is the dealer's mean significantly greater than the national average of 30,043 miles for 2-year leases? Using the 10 percent level of significance, choose the appropriate hypothesis. H0: μ ≤ 30,043 miles vs. H1: μ > 30,043 miles, reject H0 if tcalc > 1.3250 H0: μ ≥ 30,043 miles vs. H1: μ > 30,043 miles, reject H0 if tcalc > 1.3250 H0: μ ≤ 30,043 miles vs. H1: μ < 30,043 miles, reject H0 if tcalc > 1.3250 H1: μ ≤ 30,043 miles vs. H0: μ > 30,043 miles, reject H0 if tcalc > 1.3250 d a b c (b) Calculate the test statistic.

In each of the following situations, identify the scale(s) ofmeasurement that is appropriate for each situation. (i) A visiting school inspector asked a class teacher to rank thethirty students in her class on “level of discipline”, with 1 standingfor the least disciplined student and 30 standing for the most 3 disciplined student.(ii) Identical twins living in different environments are beingcompared to find out the influence of the environment on theiracademic performance. A standard test on academic performance isgiving to fifty (50) sets of identical twins and their performancegraded over 100. (iii) “Regular” students and students admitted under thedistance learning programme into Accra Institute ofTechnology are administrated a questionnairemeasuring “level of maturity” of the students, withscores on “level of maturity” ranging from 0 to 10.

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.

A recent poll found that 664 out of 1026 randomly selected people in a particular country felt that colleges and universities with big sports programs placed too much emphasis on athletics over academics. Assuming the conditions for the CLT are met, use the accompanying Minitab output to complete parts a and b below. N Event Sample p 95% CI for p 1026 664 0.647173 (0.617934, 0.676413) Question content area bottom b. 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. No, it is not a plausible claim because the confidence interval does not contain only values above 50%. C. Yes, it is a…

c. The proportion of buyers who actually make a purchase appears to be relatively constant over time. In 2015, among a sample of 389 on-line buyers, 159 purchased merchandise. In 2019, for a sample of 301 on-line buyers, 138 purchased merchandise. At the .05 level of significance, did the proportion of on-line buyers change from 2015 to 2019?
An agent for a residential real estate company in a large city has the business objective of developing more accurate estimates of the monthly rental cost for apartments. Toward that goal, the agent would like to use the size of an apartment, as defined by square footage to predict the monthly rental cost. The agent selects a sample of 25 apartments in a particular residential neighborhood and collects the following data: Size (square feet) Rent ($) 850 1950 1450 2600 1085 2200 1232 2500 718 1950 1485 2700 1136 2650 726 1935 700 1875 956 2150 1100 2400 1285 2650 1985 3300 1369 2800 1175 2400 1225 2450 1245 2100 1259 2700 1150 2200 896 2150 1361 2600 1040 2650 755 2200 1000 1800 1200 2750 Make a Normal Probability Plot and a Residual plot of the Residuals (Y axis) vs. Apartment Size (X axis).
