Researchers at the Mayo Clinic found a significant association between hospital sound levels and patient healing (louder hospital sound level is associated with slower healing). Based on these findings, a new hospital installed a new flooring that is supposed to reduce the noise level in hospital corridors. Using α = 0.01, did the variance of noise level decrease? (use both methods) Problem 4: Mayors of nine communities started a watch program to reduce vandalism. The number of vandalism incidents before and after starting the watch program was collected for each community. Does the data collected show that the watch program was effective? (use both methods)

An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 5.1 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 22 engines and the mean pressure was 5.4 pounds/square inch with a variance of 0.49 . A level of significance of 0.025 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Question 4: The HR department of a large company needs to assign a newly hired director to either their marketing development or their marketing operations division. To help in their decision, they organize two discussion groups with randomly selected employees from each division. During the talks, the director lays out his marketing vision and employees ask questions relevant to their daily work. At the end, each employee has to rate the director on a scale from 1 to 10 (1=very bad; 10=very good). The HR department wants to know if the distribution of ratings of the marketing development employees is different among the employees of the two divisions. Ratings data for the two groups of employees are included in the Minitab file HR_Ratings.mtw and in the Excel file Assign2.xlsx under the HR_Ratings tab.

a) Examine the distributions of the ratings (show histograms) by the two groups of employees and explain why a non-parametric test is justified to perform the analysis.

b) Perform an appropriate non-parametric test using a 5% significance level to determine if the distribution of ratings of the marketing development employees is different than that of the marketing operations employees. Specify any assumptions and/or conditions you need to make to apply the test and state your hypothesis clearly. Show your manual calculations.

c) Use Minitab to perform the test in b) above and compare your results here is the data for HR_Ratings.mtw

simpbasketball <- read.table(my.datafile, header=FALSE, col.names=c("height", "goals")) 

COMPUTER CALCULATIONS:

I need to know how to code in R for the solutions, not by hand.

2. Look at the data in Table 7.18 on page 368 of the textbook. These data are also

given in the SAS code labeled “SAS_basketball_goal_data” and R code labeled basketball goal data .

The dependent variable is goals and the independent variable is height of basketball players.

Complete a SAS /R program and answer the following questions about the data set:

(a) Does a scatter plot indicate a linear relationship between the two variables?

Is there anything disconcerting about the scatter plot? Explain.

(b) Fit the least-squares regression line (using SAS / R) and interpret the estimated slope

in the context of this data set. Does it make sense to interpret the estimated intercept? Explain.

(c) For these data, what is the unbiased estimate of the error variance? (Give a number.)

(d) Using the SAS / R output, test the hypothesis that the true slope of the regression line

is zero (as opposed to nonzero). State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses,

give the value of the test statistic and give the appropriate P-value. (Use significance

level of 0.05.) Explain what this means in terms of the relationship between the two

variables.

(e) Using SAS / R, find a 95% confidence interval for the mean basketball goal for

a player with a height of 77 inches. In addition find a 95% prediction interval for

basketball goal for a player with a height of 77 inches.

This has been previously answered but I don't understand, no one did the Ho and Ha, could someone please explain step by step with formulas?

A realtor wishes to compare the square footage of houses of similar prices in 4 different cities. He took a sample of 5 houses from City 1, 4 houses from City 2, 6 houses from City 3, and 7 houses from City 4. Sum of Squares Total is 71.06 and Mean Squares Between is 8.75. Can the realtor conclude that the mean square footage is the same in all four cities? Assume that the level of significance is 0.01. [6 marks]

(Hint: Set up an ANOVA table with the given information and then complete the ANOVA table for the missing information. Also, include the key steps of a test of hypothesis question). [4 marks]
