Question 4: Barthur is back, making more claims about healthy liv- ing. This time, Barthur says that eating 100g of candy per week will de- crease your life expectancy by 3 years. He claims that the relationship in Canada between life expectancy (measured in years) and candy consump- tion measured in hundreds of grams can be represented by the simple linear regression: life expectancy = 82.25 -3.candy+U. Having already debunked one false claim from Barthur, you decide to use a...

The manufacturer of the X-15 steel-belted radial truck tire claims that the mean mileage the tire can be driven before the tread wears out is 60000 miles. Assume the mileage wear follows the normal distribution and the standard deviation of the distribution is 5000 miles. Crosset Truck Company bought 48 tires and found that the mean mileage for its trucks is 59500 miles. Is Crosset’s experience different from that claimed by the manufacturer at the 0.05 significance level? For this...
