An agronomist is conducting a field experiment to identify the best management practice for minimizing spread of a certain plant disease in corn. He compares four different management strategies designed so that they would reduce the spread of the disease. He has set up a field study with a total of 25 experimental plots planted with corn and with 5 treatments (4 disease prevention treatments and a control treatment). Each treatment has been assigned to 5 randomly selected plots. Plant biomass was then measured from each plot at the end of the experiment. The ANOVA table and the treatment means are shown below.

ANOVA:

a)(10 points) Conduct all pairwise comparisons between the treatment means using LSD, (=0.05). Present the results using letters assigned to treatment means (Use letters in the column Letters for part a) in the below table)

b)(10 points) Conduct all pairwise comparisons between the treatment means using Tukey’s HSD (=0.05). Present the results using letters assigned to treatment means. (Use the column Letters for part b) in the below table)

                                                NAME:____________________________

c)(10 points) Did you expect to see differences in conclusions obtained using the two methods (LSD and Tukey’s)? Which method would you use for this analysis? For full credit, provide an explanationof your choice.

Step by step procedure by hand, possibly shortest way to go about this problem would be ideal. thank you in advance

(a) the first red bus arrives before the first blue bus.

v. choose one beverage out of three.

a. How many different dinners can be ordered without ordering more than one kind of potato, assuming that no course is omitted?

b. How many different dinners can be ordered with no more than one kind of potato if one item, other than the entree, is omitted?

Use R to answer the following question. Copy and paste the code and answer from R into your paper.

On the average,five cars arrive at a particular car wash every hour. Let X count the number of cars that arrive from 10 AM to 11 AM. Then X ∼pois(lambda = 5). Also, μ = σ2 = 5.
 What is the probability that no car arrives during this period?
 Suppose the car wash above is in operation from 8AM to 6PM, and we let Y be the number of customers that appear in this period. Since this period covers a total of 10 hours. What is the probability that there are between 48 and 50 customers, inclusive?

There are ten volunteers, from whom we must choose three people for the committee. Three of the volunteers are women. Define ?? to be the number of women in the group of three that are chosen for the committee.

a. How many ways can you choose three people out of 10?

b. Find the exact probability, ??(?? = 2).

c. Find the exact probability, ??(?? ≥ 2).

Use the given categorical data to construct the relative frequency distribution.

Natural births randomly selected from four hospitals in a highly populated region occurred on the days of the week (in the order of Monday through Sunday) with the frequencies 52, 64, 72, 55, 57, 45, 55. Does it appear that such births occur on the days of the week with equal frequency?

Construct the relative frequency distribution.

Day              Relative frequency

Monday               ___%

Tuesday            ___%

Wednesday       ___%

Thursday           ____%

Friday                ___%

Saturday             ___%

Sunday               ____%

(Type integers or decimals. Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Let the frequencies be substantially different if any frequency is at least twice any other frequency, Does it appear that these births occur on the days of the week with equal frequency?

A. Yes, it appears that births occur on the days of the week with frequencies that are about the same.

B. No, it appears that births occur on the days of the week with frequencies that are substantially different.

C. Yes, it appears that births occur on the days of the week with frequencies that are exactly the same.

D. It is impossible to determine with the given information.

A random sample is drawn from a normally distributed population with mean μ = 23 and standard deviation σ = 2.6. [You may find it useful to reference the z table.]

a. Are the sampling distribution of the sample mean with n = 31 and n = 62 normally distributed?

• Yes, both the sample means will have a normal distribution.

• No, both the sample means will not have a normal distribution.

• No, only the sample mean with n = 31 will have a normal distribution.

• No, only the sample mean with n = 62 will have a normal distribution.

b. Calculate the probabilities that the sample mean is less than 23.7 for both sample sizes. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places, “z” value to 2 decimal places, and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

According to the National Automobile Dealers Assoc., 75% of U.S. car dealers' profits comes from repairs and parts sold. However, many of the dealerships' service departments aren't open evenings or weekends. The percentage of dealerships opened during the evenings and weekends are as follows:

Post a description of the types of probability and nonprobability sampling you selected. Then describe two strengths and two weaknesses of each type of sampling. Finally, identify two ethical considerations that may factor into selecting a sampling method and explain how you might address these considerations.

Resistance training is a popular form of conditioning aimed at enhancing sports performance and is widely used among high school, college, and professional athletes, although its use for younger athletes is controversial. Researchers obtained a random sample of 3933 patients between the ages of 8 and 30 who were admitted to U. S. emergency rooms with injuries classified by the Consumer Product Safety Commission code "weight-lifting." These injuries were further classified as " accidental" if caused by dropped weight or improper equipment use. Of the 3933 weight-lifting injuries, 1648 were classified as accidental.

What is a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of weight-lifting injuries in this age group that were accidental?

The 98% confidence interval (±±0.001) is from  to
