Suppose you are a researcher investigating the annual sales differences among five categories of businesses. The study looks at 55 companies equally divided among categories A, B, C, D, and E. Complete the following ANOVA table and determine the value of the F statistic. Could you help me find the p value and T? Treatment SS=583.39 and the total is 1555.57. The question Is on Chegg already but nobody has answered for the P and T values.

Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) is among a group of organic pollutants found in a variety of products, such as coolants, insulating materials, and lubricants in electrical equipment. Disposal of items containing less than 50 parts per million (ppm) PCB is generally not regulated. A certain kind of small capacitor contains PCB with a mean of 48.2 ppm and a standard deviation of 7 ppm. The Environmental Protection Agency takes a random sample of 40 of these small capacitors, planning to regulate the disposal of such capacitors if the sample mean amount of PCB is 48.5 ppm or more. Find the probability that the disposal of such capacitors will be regulated.

1. In the last few years, many research studies have shown that the purported benefits of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) do not exist, and in fact, that hormone replacement therapy actually increases the risk of several serious diseases. A four-year experiment involving 4400 women was conducted at 38 medical centres. Half of the women took placebos and half took a prescription drug, a widely prescribed type of hormone replacement therapy. There were x1 = 49 cases of dementia in the hormone group and x2 = 26 in the placebo group. Is there sufficient evidence to indicate that the risk of dementia is higher for patients using the prescription drug? Test at the 1% level of significance. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean u is (_, _ ) (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
The margin of error is ___. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

1. A simple random sample of size n equals 350 individuals who are currently employed is asked if they work at home at least once per week. Of the 350 employed individuals surveyed, 32 responded that they did work at home at least once per week.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released hourly wage figures for various countries for workers in the manufacturing sector. The hourly wage was $30.67 for Switzerland, $20.20 for Japan, and $23.82 for the U.S. Assume that in all three countries, the standard deviation of hourly labor rates is $3.00.
Appendix A Statistical Tables
a. Suppose 37 manufacturing workers are selected randomly from across Switzerland and asked what their hourly wage is. What is the probability that the sample average will be between $30.00 and $31.00?
b. Suppose 36 manufacturing workers are selected randomly from across Japan. What is the probability that the sample average will exceed $21.00?
c. Suppose 47 manufacturing workers are selected randomly from across the United States. What is the probability that the sample average will be less than $22.95?

a researcher at the univeristy of vermont was interested in studying the relationship between attorneys' decision to prosecute cases and victims' credibility. she collected data on 4205 cases, her two variables were victims' credibility(coded as 0=low, 1=medium, 2=high) and case prosecuted(coded as 0=no, 1=yes). Of the 2713 cases prosecutes , in 1025 cases the victim had high credibility, in 790 of the cases the victim had medium credibility and in 989 cases the victim had low credibility . Of the 1492 cases that were not prosecuted, in 541 the victim had high credibility, in 745 the victim had medium credibility, and in 206 the victim had low credibility.

Anne, bob, and carol- all biostatisticians and epidemiologists- are emailing each other about plans for the weekend. Anne suggests that they all go surfing to Santa Cruz, but bob writes back indicating that he is reluctant to do so because he is terrified of sharks. Carol responds by arguing that P(great weekend | surfing) is 0.80 and P(great weekend | no surfing) is 0.50. Assuming that Carol’s probabilities are correct, further assume for this example that each person’s weekend happiness is independent of any other person’s weekend happiness:
1. Given that all friends go surfing, what is the probability that all 3 of them have a great weekend?
2. Given that all 3 friends go surfing, what is the probability that 2 of them have a great weekend and 1 of them does not have a great weekend? (Hint, how many ways could 2 of the friends have a great weekend?)
