A federal agency responsible for enforcing laws governing weights and measures routinely inspects packages to determine whether the weight of the contents is at least as great as that advertised on the package. A random sample of 30 containers whose packaging states that the contents weigh 8 ounces was drawn. The weight of each package in ounces can be found in the sheet entitled “Part 2 Question 4”. After conducting the appropriate test, can you conclude with confidence that packages that are labeled as weighing 8 ounces are likely to weigh 8 ounces?

Altobene, Inc.’s  R&D department recently conducted a test of three different brake systems to determine if there is a difference in the average stopping distance among the different systems.  In the test, 21 identical mid-sized cars were obtained from one of the major domestic carmakers.  Seven (7) cars were fitted with Brake A, seven (7) with Brake B, and seven (7) with Brake C. The number of feet required to bring the test cars to a full stop was recorded.

Which of the following is the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses about the stopping distance among the different systems?

H0: = =

HA: All of the population mean stopping distances are different from each other

H0:= =

HA: At least one population mean stopping distances is different from the others

H0:= =

HA: At least one population mean stopping distance is equal to another population mean stopping distance

Ho:= =  

Ha: Exactly one population mean stopping distance is greater than the other two population mean stopping distances

An ANOVA for the Stopping Distance Effect in Question 1 has been conducted with the partial results shown in the table below. Complete the ANOVA table.

6.013                                                  b.              5.092

4.938                                                  d.              3.127

Based on the ANOVA analysis, what conclusion would you make regarding the effect the braking system has on average stopping distance?

Reject HO, there is significant evidence to conclude there is a brake effect.

Do not reject HO, there is significant evidence to conclude there is a brake  effect.

Reject HO, there is insignificant evidence to conclude there is a brake effect.

Do not reject HO, there is insignificant evidence to conclude there is a brake effect.
