Delta Air Lines wants to determine if the number of no-shows for flights originating from Detroit is higher than from Minneapolis. A sample of 20 flights is taken from each city, and the number of no-shows is determined for each flight. Which nonparametric test would you use to determine whether the number of no-shows is greater in Detroit?

Multiple Choice

Wilcoxon signed-rank test
Kruskal-Wallis test
Wilcoxon rank sum (Mann-Whitney) test
Wald-Wolfowitz one-sample runs test

Twenty customers are randomly chosen, and each is given a sample of Nut Butter ice cream to taste. The customers rank the taste of the ice cream on a 10-point scale. Each is then given a sample of Chewy Gooey ice cream to taste and rank on a 10-point scale. Based on the 20 customers’ ratings of each flavor, the research analyst conducting the survey wishes to determine if one flavor is preferred over the other. Which nonparametric test would you use to determine if there is a difference in the ratings?

For the 2nd problem..Wilcoxon rank sum (Mann-Whitney) test would be used...as there are two independent samples (ans)

For the 1st problem...use kruskal wallis test...It is used for comparing two or more independent samples of equal or different sample sizes......(ans)

Note-if there is any understanding problem regarding this please feel free to ask via comment box..thank you

Delta Air Lines reports that the average delay time of all arriving domestic flights in 2018 was 60 minutes. A flight is considered delayed if it arrives more than 15 minutes later than the scheduled arrival time. Average delayed minutes are calculated from delayed flights only. A random sample of 20 Delta flights in 2018 had an average delay of 65 minutes with a standard deviation of 5 minutes. a) Categorical or Quantitative Variable? b) Is 60 minutes a Sample...

Unoccupied seats on flights cause airlines to lose revenue. Suppose a large airline wants to determine of the mean number of unoccupied seats on all its flights is greater than 10. To accomplish this, the records of 60 flights are randomly selected and the number of unoccupied seats is noted for each of the sampled flights. The sample mean is 11.4 seats and the sample standard deviation is 3.4 seats. Test the claim that mean number of unoccupied seats on...

The present study shows data for direct flights from Orlando to Miami for one airline. The airline claims that the flying time (time in the air) of direct flights from Orlando to Miami takes 45 minutes. The company would like to test the claim and collects a random sample of 90 flights. We will find the average and standard deviation for the flights’ times for the random sample of flights. We will use Excel functions to find the critical value(s)...
