Chapter 8.2, Problem 12Q

For Questions 8.2.1-8.2.12 use the flowchart in Figure 8.2.4 to identify the experimental designs represented. In each case, answer whichever of the questions on p. 427 are necessary to make the determination.

Male toads often have trouble distinguishing between other male toads and female toads, a state of affairs that can lead to awkward moments during mating season. When male toad A inadvertently makes inappropriate romantic overtures to male toad B , the latter emits a short call known as a release chirp. Below are the lengths of the release chirps measured for fifteen male toads innocently caught up in misadventures of the heart ( 19 ) .

A municipal solid-waste site for a city must be located at Site A or Site B. After sorting, some of the solid refuse will be transported to an electric powerplant where it will be used as fuel. Data for the hauling of refuse from each site to the power plant are shown in Table P2-4. If the power plant will pay $8.00 per cubic yard of sorted solid waste delivered to the plant, where should the solid-waste site be located? Use the city’s viewpoint and assume that 200,000 cubic yards of refuse will be hauled to the plant for one year only. One site must be selected.
Question 4a. A large accountancy firm finds that over the long run 10% of its statements for clients are in error in some way. A quality assurance officer at the firm investigating the source of the errors takes a sample of 20 statements produced by a single employee and classifies each as being “in error” or “not in error”.i. If the variable X is used to represent the number of statements in the sample that are in error, and assuming the error rate is the firm’s level of 10% then state:• the type of distribution this variable has; and• the parameter/s of this distribution. ii. Determine the probability that 2 or less returns in this sample are in error. The quality assurance officer found that there were 5 statements in the sample that were in error.iii. Determine the probability of finding 5 or more returns in error if indeed the error rate was 10%. iv. Based upon your answer for part iii., what conclusion might the quality assurance office make about this employee in terms of the…
