The mean noise level of 20 areas designated as “casualty doors” was 63.1 dBA, and the standard deviation is 4.1 dBA. The mean noise level for 24 areas designated as “operating theaters” was 57.3 dBA and the standard deviation was 7.5 dBA.  At α = 0.01 can it be concluded that the mean casualty doors noise level is greater than the mean noise level for the operational theaters?

In India, roughly 68.84% of the population live in areas that are roughly designated as rural. In addition, only 67% of the rural population have access to the grid while 94% of the non-rural population have access to power grid. (a) What is the probability that anybody has access to the grid? Show evidence. (b) What is the probability that a person lives either in a non-rural area, or has access to the grid or both? Show evidence. (c) Are...

a television critic claims that 85 percent of all viewers find the noise level of a certain commercial objectionable. If a random sample of 325 television viewers includes 250 who find the noise level objectionable, test at the .05 level of significance whether there is a significant difference between the sampled proportion and the critics claim sample size: Those objecting to noise (x): sample proportion(p-hat): hypothesized proportion(p): the null hypothesis: alternative hypothesis: standard error: test statistics: appropriate p value: conclusion:

A property and casualty insurance company (which provides fire coverage for dwellings) felt that the mean distance from a home to the nearest fire department in rural Alabama was at least 10 miles. It set its fire insurance rates accordingly. Members of the community set out to show that the mean distance was less than 10 miles due to the increased number of volunteer fire departments. This, they felt, would convince the insurance company to lower its rates. They randomly...

An analog signal, bandlimited to 20 Hz is corrupted by high-frequency noise. The spectrum of the noise is from 25 Hz to 35 Hz. The noisy analog signal is sampled at 60 Hz. A digital lowpass filter is to be designed so as to remove the noise from the signal. Find the desired frequency response.

The ideal (daytime) noise-level for hospitals is 45 decibels with a standard deviation of 10 db; which is to say, this may not be true. A simple random sample of 81 hospitals at a moment during the day gives a mean noise level of 47 db. Assume that the standard deviation of noise level is really 10 db. All answers to two places after the decimal. (a) A 99% confidence interval for the actual mean noise level in hospitals is...
