A company that produces computers claims that that the average life of one of their computers is 8 years. A sample of 12 computers shows a sample mean life of 7.8 years, with a population standard deviation of 0.2 years. Does the data suggest that the average life of one of the computers is not 8 years at 0.05 level significance? Assume computer lifetimes are normally distributed.
1. Give null and alternate hypothesis
2. Give test statistic and P value, state conclusion
3. State what type 1 and type 2 errors would be

Consider the following time series data.
| Week | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
| Value | 18 | 13 | 17 | 12 | 17 | 15 |
a. develop the three-week moving average forecasts for this time series. Compute MSE and a forecast for week 7 (to 2 decimals if necessary).
b. use = 0.2 to compute the exponential smoothing forecasts for the time series. Compute MSE and a forecast for week 7 (to 2 decimals).
c. use a smoothing constant of =0.4 to compute the MSE (to 2 decimals).

A red blood cell has a disk diameter of 0.6 micrometers and an intracellular isotonic osmolarity of 290mOsmol/l at a temperature of 293 kelvin. The hydraulic permeability of the red blood cell is 2.4 micrometer atm-1min-1 with a b inactive fraction intercept of 0.2. Calculate the normalized cell volume and plot it against osmolarity variations between 50mOsm to 850mOsm. Plot another graph that represents cell volume variations against time when the extracellular isotonic osmolarity varies from 290mOsmol/l to 990mOsm/l.

A long, straight wire carrying a current I1 is placed on a horizontal table in front of you and the direction of the current points +x axis. The magnetic field produced by the current I1 at a point 5 cm above the wire is 0.2 T. A second parallel wire carrying a current I2 = 3I1 is placed 10 cm above the first wire and the direction of the current also points +x axis. What is the magnitude of the net magnetic field produced by these two currents at a point 5 cm above the table?

1a. If a 10^-2 dilution of a culture yields 150 colonies when 0.5 ml is spread on a plate, how many colonies will grow on a plate that receives 0.1 ml of the same dilution?
1b. How many CFU per ml are present in a sample if 0.2 ml of a 10^-5 dilution grew 220 colonies?
1c. How many colonies do you expect when 0.4 ml of a 10^-7 dilution of a culture containing 10^9 CFU per ml is plated onto nutrient media?

This basic problem is a practical application of if-statement(s).
Write a function called bolt_check that takes one scalar input argument and returns one scalar output argument. The input represents the measured length of a machine screw during the quality-assurance phase of its manufacturing. The purpose of the function is to categorize the measured length into one of six categories. If the measured length is within two percent of one of its five nominal lengths-- 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, or 1 (inch), then the nominal length is returned. Otherwise 0 is returned, signifying that the bolt failed the test. You may find that the built-in function abs for absolute value is useful for this problem.
