2.   A rivet is to be inserted into a hole. If the standard deviation of hole diameter exceeds 0.02 mm, there is an unacceptably high probability that the rivet will not fit. A random sample of n = 15 parts is selected, and the hole diameter is measured. The sample standard deviation of the hole diameter measurements is s = 0.016mm. At α = 0.05 conduct a hypothesis test to investigate to indicate that the standard deviation of hole diameter exceeds 0.02 mm. To gain full credit, you should provide the following 1-8:
1.   State and check the modeling assumptions.
2.   Define the parameter of interest.
3.   State the hypotheses.
4.   Calculate the value of the test statistic. What is the distribution of the test statistic?
5.   Find the p-value using the appropriate table.
6.   State the decision and the conclusion in the context of the problem.
7.   Calculate a 95% confidence for σ and interpret your interval in the context of this problem.
8.   Use the confidence bound in part 7 to test the hypothesis.

A freshly brewed shot of espresso has three distinct components: the heart, body, and crema. The separation of these three components typically lasts only 10 to 20 seconds. To use the espresso shot in making a latte, a cappuccino, or another drink, the shot must be poured into the beverage during the separation of the heart, body, and crema. If the shot is used after the separation occurs, the drink becomes excessively bitter and acidic, ruining the final drink. Thus, a longer separation time allows the drink-maker more time to pour the shot and ensure that the beverage will meet expectations. An employee at a coffee shop hypothesized that the harder the espresso grounds were tamped down into the portafilter before brewing, the longer the separation time would be. An experiment using 24 observations was conducted to test this relationship. The independent variable Tamp measures the distance, in inches, between the espresso grounds and the top of the portafilter (i.e., the harder the tamp, the greater the distance). The dependent variable Time is the number of seconds after the heart, body, and crema are separated (i.e., the amount of time after the shot is poured before it must be used for the customer’s beverage). The data can be seen below:

A new casino game involves rolling 2 dice. The winnings are directly proportional to the total number of sixes rolled. Suppose a gambler plays the game 100 times, with 0,1 and 2 sixes observed 40, 30, 30 times respectively. Do you reject the hypothesis H0: that the dice are fair at 5% level of significance? Use the fact that P(χ2^2>5.99) = 0.05.

Sixteen laboratory animals were fed a special diet from birth through age 12 weeks. Their

weight gain (in grams) were as follows:

63 68 79 65 64 63 65 64 76 74 66 66 67 73 69 76

Can we conclude from these data that the diet results in a mean weight gain of less than 70

grams? Let α = 0.05.

Note: There are two possible ways to analyze this data. Use the statistical procedure

that makes use of the magnitudes of the differences between measures and a

hypothesized location parameter rather than just the signs of the differences.
