true or false 11. When the level of confidence and the sample size remain the same, a confidence interval for a population mean y will be narrower, when the sample standard deviation s is smaller than when s is larger. Chapter 10 12. The closer is the hypothesized mean is from the actual mean the higher is the power of the test. 13. The manager of the quality department for a tire manufacturing company wants to know the average tensile...

(1 point) Alzheimer's disease is a progressive disease of the brain. An article published in 2006 was critical of the methodologt used in studies of Alzheimer's treatments conducted prior to 2006. In a random sample of n=26 Alzheimer's studies, the quality of the methodology measured on the Wong scale with scores ranging from 9 (low quality) to 27 (high quality) for each study. The data is provided below. x=c(19,14,15,11,19,10,14,26,18,19,10,23,23,27,21,13,17,21,23,24,16,21,10,13,24,20); A) Find a 89% confidence interval for the mean quality of...
With the aim of predicting the selling price of a house in Newburg Park based on the distance the house lies from the beach, we're examining data for houses sold in Newburg Park in the past year. These data detail the distance (x, in miles) of the house from the beach and the selling price (y, in thousands of dollars) of the house for each of 14 houses. The least-squares regression equation based on the data is y=302.76–4.99x. We're interested...
Values of modulus of elasticity (MOE, the ratio of stress, i.e., force per unit area, to strain, i.e., deformation per unit length, in GPa) and flexural strength (a measure of the ability to resist failure in bending, in MPa) were determined for a sample of concrete beams of a certain type, resulting in the following data MOE 29.7 33.0 33.8 35.4 35.4 36.1 36.2 36.3 37.5 37.8 38.5 39.0 39.5 40.8 Strength 5.8 7.37.1 6.4 81 6.6 6.87.86.7 6.5 7.0...
(1) (10 points) Determine whether the following statements are True or False: (a) (2 points) In a confidence interval (CI) for a population mean, the margin of error (MOE) is half the width of the CI. (i) True (ii) False (b) (2 points) If we constructed 1000 independent 90% CI's for a population mean u, then we'd expect about 900 of them to contain u (i) True (ii) False (c) (2 points) If we increase the sample size of SRS's,...
