Question 2: An investigation has been carried out to investigate which of the beverages that two separate companies put on the market is consumed more by consumers. In the first sample of 100 people, the average monthly consumption was 5 liters, in the second sample of 110 people, the average monthly consumption was 7 liters, and the standard deviations were 2 and 3 liters, respectively. Test unilaterally according to the 5% significance level.

Question 1 A pharmaceutical company carried out a study to investigate if men and women, of the same age, have different levels of the high density lipoprotein (HDL) type of cholesterol. This is the type of cholesterol that is labelled “good” as it helps prevent coronary disease. A small volunteer sample of men and women aged 40-45 of general good health was taken as a preliminary trial. Their blood HDL cholesterol levels (mg/dL) were measured with the following results: MALE:...

A researcher carried out an investigation of the extra sleep produced by drug A and drug B. The data from the experiment in hours are shown. Drug A 0.7 −1.6 −0.2 −1.2 −0.1 3.4 3.7 0.8 0.0 2.0 Drug B 1.9 0.8 1.1 0.1 −0.1 4.4 5.5 1.6 4.6 3.4 The data for both treatment groups are not normally distributed. To determine if the mean sleep response (extra hours of sleep produced) differs between drug A and drug B, a...

An experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of species (factor A, with I = 4) and grade (factor B, with J = 3) on breaking strength of wood specimens. One observation was made for each species—grade combination—resulting in SSA = 443.0, SSB = 424.6, and SSE = 125.4. Assume that an additive model is appropriate. (a) Test H0: α1 = α2 = α3 = α4 = 0 (no differences in true average strength due to species) versus Ha:...

Use R studio to answer the following. A study was carried out to investigate the variation of rainbow trout weights in a certain creek. The weights (in kilograms) of 10 randomly selected fish are listed below:       0.78, 0.45, 0.35, 0.76, 0.57, 0.42, 0.33, 0.68, 0.66, 0.42 Assume that the population is approximately normally distributed.  Hint: make a vector to enter the weight data into R, e.g.: > wt = c(0.78, ..., 0.42) Find the 90% confidence interval for the unknown population...

A ["prospective", OR "retrospective"] cohort study is carried out to investigate the association between occupational arsenic inhalation and neurological exposure and neurological effects among workers in a copper smelter. For the sake of simplicity, let’s assume there are two possible exposure categories: high and low (for example, those working in the smelting process and those working in administration). The exposure was carefully assessed by review of company records which reflected very good exposure monitoring (both air sampling and urine testing)....
