Brake wear: For a sample of 9 automobiles, the mileage (in 1000s of miles) at which the original front brake pads were worn to 10% of their original thickness was measured, as was the mileage at which the original rear brake pads were worn to 10% of their original thickness. The results were as follows: Car Rear 41. 2 36.3 45.8 46.6 39.6 52.3 51.7 46.3 47.4 Front 32.2 27.2 34.7 37.3 30.7 40.5 41.0 33.8 36.8 7 8 Send...
Two beams are shown below. The first is singly reinforced with 3-#8, the second is doubly reinforced by adding 2-#7 both top and bottom. The concrete compressive strength, f’c = 3000 psi and the steel is grade 60. For the doubly reinforced beam, what is the location of the neutral axis, c, measured from the top of the beam? 3.9 in. 5.6 in. 5.0 in. 4.4 in. 14 2 -2-t17 1G 2 2-17
The data in the accompanying table represent the compressive strength, in thousands of pounds per square inch (psi), of 20 samples of concrete taken two and seven days after pouring. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. At the .01 level of significance, is there evidence that the mean strength is lower at two days than at seven days?

Consider a study to determine the compressive strength of concrete blocks used for paving Two methods of manufacturing concrete blocks are under investigation- method 1 (which is more expensive) and method 2. Research indicates that the greater the compressive strength of concrete, the greater the durability of a concrete block. Therefore the question is which one, if either, of the two methods produces greater compressive strength. In addition, the manufacturer considers that an average difference between the methods of less...
