The document contains the results of two one-way ANOVA tests. For the first test, the ANOVA results show a significant difference between the means of three groups (F(2,15)=8.515, p=0.003). Post hoc comparisons would be needed to determine which specific groups differ. For the second test, the ANOVA results do not reach statistical significance (F(2,10)=3.949, p=0.054). Therefore, there are no significant differences between the means of the three groups for the second test based on the data provided.

Test of mu =30 vs. not = 30
The assumed standard deviation=1.2
N Mean SE Mean 95 % CI z p

√n √16
b) Is this a one- sided or two- sided test?
Two- sided
c) Use the output and the normal table to find a 99 percent CI on the mean.

Valid N 9
a) Can the null hypothesis be rejected at the 0.05 level? Why?
Yes, the p-value of 0.01 is less than 0.05
b) Is this a one- sided or two- sided test?
Two- sided
c) If the hypothesis had been H 0 :μ 1−μ2=2 versus H 1 : μ 1−μ2 ≠ 2 would you reject
the null hypothesis at the 0.05 level?
Yes
d) If the hypothesis had been H 0 :μ 1−μ2=2 versus H 1 : μ 1−μ2 <2 would you reject
the null hypothesis at the 0.05 level? Can you answer this question without doing
any additional calculations? Why?

Yes, from (-2.33,-4.33)


e) Use the output and t table to find a 95 percent upper confidence bound on the
difference in mean ?
Upper c P for -3.6 in t table = -1.21
2.16 The breaking strength of a fiber is required to be at least 150 psi .past experience has
indicated that the standard deviation of breaking strength is σ =3 psi. A random sample of
four specimens is tested. The results are y 1=145 , y 2=153 , y 3=150 y 4 =147 .

a) State the hypotheses that you think should be tested in this experiment.

H 0 :μ=150 H a :μ >150

b) Test these hypotheses using α=0.05, what are your conclusions?

n=4, σ=3, ý=(145+153+150+147)/ 4 = 148.75

c) Find the p-value for the test in part (b)


P= 1-[0.7967+ (2/3)(0.7995-0.7967)] = 0.2014
d) Construct a 95 percent confidence interval on the mean breaking strength.
