On snow-covered roads, winter tires enable a car to stop in a shorter distance than if summer tires were installed. In terms of the additive model for one-way ANOVA, and for an experiment in which the mean stopping distances on a snow-covered road are measured for each of four brands of winter tires. If the data are as shown in Sheet 48, what conclusion would be reached at the 0.01 level of significance?

Medical research has shown that repeated wrist extensions beyond 20 degrees increase the risk of wrist and hand injuries. Each of 24 students at Cornell University used a proposed new computer mouse design, and while using the mouse, each student’s wrist extension was recorded. Data consistent with summary values given in the paper “Comparative Study of Two Computer Mouse Designs” (Cornell Human Factors Laboratory Technical Report RP7992) are given here.

- Tardigrades, or water bears, are a type of micro-animal famous for their resilience. In examining the effects of radiation on organisms, an expert claimed that the amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony of tardigrades no longer has a mean of 900 Gy (grays). (For comparison, humans cannot withstand more than 10 Gy .) A study was conducted on a sample of 27 randomly selected tardigrade colonies, finding that the amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony had a sample mean of 907 Gy , with a sample standard deviation of 17 Gy . Assume that the population of amounts of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony of tardigrades is approximately normally distributed. Complete the parts below to perform a hypothesis test to see if there is enough evidence, at the 0.05 level of significance, to support the claim that μ , the mean amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony of tardigrades, is not equal to 900…arrow_forwardTardigrades, or water bears, are a type of micro-animal famous for their resilience.
