A particular moth can infest avocado trees and potentially damage the avocado fruit. A farmer plans to investigate the number of damaged avocado fruit on moth-infested avocado trees of a certain variety. A recent article states that the population distribution of the number of damaged avocado fruit on moth-infested avocado trees of this variety is symmetric but not mound-shaped with mean μ =59 and standard deviation σ = 24
.
(a) Compare the shapes of the sampling distributions of the sample mean number of damaged avocado fruit for random samples of 6 moth-infested trees and for random samples of 90 moth-infested trees from the population.
(b) Which of the following would be less likely to obtain from the population?
• A random sample of 36 moth-infested avocado trees…

- Please do not give solution in image format thanku Suppose that the 4‐year graduation rate at a large, public university is 70 percent (this is the population proportion of successes). In an effort to increase graduation rates, the university randomly selected 300 incoming freshman toparticipate in a peer‐advising program. After 4 years, 222 of these studentsgraduated. Can you conclude that this program was a success at the 5‐percentlevel of significance?arrow_forwardMy question for my stats homework comes from the textbook Introduction to the Practice of Statistics Ninth Edition. This comes from section exercise 1.71. from the textbook, my professor wants me to create a stemplot and complete all 4 elements of explanatory data analysis. Then he wants me to complete a five-number summary and use the 1.5 IQR (Calculate both thresholds) to identify any outliers. Then make a modified boxplot. Can you please help me solve this problem?

Everyone polled expressed either approval or disapproval. These are the results their poll produced. • In early 2011, 65 percent of the population approved of the mayor's actions in office. • In mid-2011, 55 percent of the population approved of his actions. • In late 2011, the percentage of popular approval was measured at 37 percent. (a) What is the sample size for this study? (Enter your answer as a whole number.) (b) What proportion in the poll disapproved of the mayor, according to the results from late 2011? (Enter your answer to two decimal places.) (c) How many people polled responded that they approved of the mayor in late 2011? (Round your answer up to the next whole number.)

- Employer-based health insuranceA report from a Gallup poll1 in 2011 started by saying, "Forty-five percent of American adults reported getting their health insurance from an employer..." Later in the article we find information on the sampling method, "a random sample of 147,291 adults, aged 18 and over, living in the US," and a sentence about the accuracy of the results, "the maximum margin of sampling error is ±1 percentage point."Use the margin of error2 to give an interval estimate for the parameter of interest.Enter the exact answers.The interval isarrow_forwardIn Exercises 5–16, use analysis of variance for the indicated test. Arsenic in Rice Listed below are amounts of arsenic in samples of brown rice from three different states. The amounts are in micrograms of arsenic and all samples have the same serving size. The data are from the Food and Drug Administration. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the three samples are from populations with the same mean. Do the amounts of arsenic appear to be different in the different states? Given that the amounts of arsenic in the samples from Texas have the highest mean, can we conclude that brown rice from Texas poses the greatest health problem?arrow_forwardWindy, part II In Exercise 12, we saw summary statis-tics for wind speeds at two sites near each other, both being considered as locations for an electricity-generatingwind turbine. The data, recorded every 6 hours for a year,showed each of the sites had a mean wind speed highenough to qualify, but how can we tell which site is best?Here are some displays: a) The boxplots show outliers for each site, yet the histo-gram shows none. Discuss why. b) Which of the summaries would you use to selectbetween these sites? Why? c) Using the information you have, discuss the assump-tions and conditions for paired t inference for these data. (Hint: Think hard about the independenceassumption in particular.)arrow_forward
- The state education commission wants to estimate the fraction of tenth grade students that have reading skills at or below the eighth grade level. Step 1 of 2: Suppose a sample of 333 tenth graders is drawn. Of the students sampled, 260 read above the eighth grade level. Using the data, estimate the proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level. Enter your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to three decimal places. Step 2 of 2: Suppose a sample of 333 tenth graders is drawn. Of the students sampled, 260 read above the eighth grade level. Using the data, construct the 80% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level. Round your answers to three decimal places.arrow_forwardA hypothesis test, based on a paired sample, is to be performed to compare the means of two populations. The sample of 15 paired differences contains an outlier but otherwise is approximately bell shaped. Assuming that removal of the outlier would not be legitimate, would use of the paired t-test or a nonparametric test be better?

- Three different methods of tillage and four varieties were tested in a field experiment using a split-plot design in RCBD with tillage as the main plot factor and variety as the subplot factor.

There are 4 possible resulting phenotypes (numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 in the data table below). Mendel's laws of genetic inheritance ('the model') suggest that the proportions should be 9/16, 3/16, 3/16 and 1/16 for phenotypes 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively. The classification of a sample of 1400 observations is given below together with the proportions suggested by Mendel's laws of inheritance (the model).
