This module provides an overview of Hypothesis Testing of Single Mean and Single Proportion as a part of Collaborative Statistics collection (col10522) by Barbara Illowsky and Susan Dean.

Rebecca and Matt are 14 year old twins. Matt’s height is 2 standard deviations below the mean for 14 year old boys’ height. Rebecca’s height is 0.10 standard deviations above the mean for 14 year old girls’ height. Interpret this.

• Matt is 2.1 inches shorter than Rebecca
• Rebecca is very tall compared to other 14 year old girls.
• Rebecca is taller than Matt.
• Matt is shorter than the average 14 year old boy.

Construct a histogram of the IPO data (see Table of Contents, 14. Appendix, Data Sets). Use 5 intervals.

No solution provided. There are several ways in which the histogram could be constructed.

The next three exercises refer to the following information: Ninety homeowners were asked the number of estimates they obtained before having their homes fumigated. $X$ = the number of estimates.

$x$ Rel. Freq. Cumulative Rel. Freq.
1 0.3
2 0.2
4 0.4
5 0.1

Complete the cumulative relative frequency column.

Calculate the sample mean (a), the sample standard deviation (b) and the percent of the estimates that fall at or below 4 (c).

• 2.8
• 1.48
• 90%

Calculate the median, M, the first quartile, Q1, the third quartile, Q3. Then construct a boxplot of the data.

$M=3$ ; $\mathrm{Q1}=1$ ; $\mathrm{Q3}=4$

The middle 50% of the data are between _____ and _____.

1 and 4

The next three questions refer to the following table: Seventy 5th and 6th graders were asked their favorite dinner.

Pizza Hamburgers Spaghetti Fried shrimp
5th grader 15 6 9 0
6th grader 15 7 10 8

Find the probability that one randomly chosen child is in the 6th grade and prefers fried shrimp.

• $\frac{\text{32}}{\text{70}}$
• $\frac{8}{\text{32}}$
• $\frac{8}{8}$
• $\frac{8}{\text{70}}$

D

Find the probability that a child does not prefer pizza.

• $\frac{\text{30}}{\text{70}}$
• $\frac{\text{30}}{\text{40}}$
• $\frac{\text{40}}{\text{70}}$
• 1

C

Find the probability a child is in the 5th grade given that the child prefers spaghetti.

• $\frac{9}{\text{19}}$
• $\frac{9}{\text{70}}$
• $\frac{9}{\text{30}}$
• $\frac{\text{19}}{\text{70}}$

A

A sample of convenience is a random sample.

• true
• false

B

A statistic is a number that is a property of the population.

• true
• false

B

You should always throw out any data that are outliers.

• true
• false

B

Lee bakes pies for a small restaurant in Felton, CA. She generally bakes 20 pies in a day, on the average. Of interest is the num.ber of pies she bakes each day

• Define the Random Variable $X$ .
• State the distribution for $X$ .
• Find the probability that Lee bakes more than 25 pies in any given day.
• $P\left(\text{20}\right)$
• 0.1122

Six different brands of Italian salad dressing were randomly selected at a supermarket. The grams of fat per serving are 7, 7, 9, 6, 8, 5. Assume that the underlying distribution is normal. Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the population mean grams of fat per serving of Italian salad dressing sold in supermarkets.

CI: $\left(5\text{.}\text{52},8\text{.}\text{48}\right)$

Given: uniform, exponential, normal distributions. Match each to a statement below.

• mean = median ≠ mode
• mean>median>mode
• mean = median = mode
• uniform
• exponential
• normal

Is there any normative that regulates the use of silver nanoparticles?
what king of growth are you checking .?
Renato
What fields keep nano created devices from performing or assimulating ? Magnetic fields ? Are do they assimilate ?
why we need to study biomolecules, molecular biology in nanotechnology?
?
Kyle
yes I'm doing my masters in nanotechnology, we are being studying all these domains as well..
why?
what school?
Kyle
biomolecules are e building blocks of every organics and inorganic materials.
Joe
anyone know any internet site where one can find nanotechnology papers?
research.net
kanaga
sciencedirect big data base
Ernesto
Introduction about quantum dots in nanotechnology
what does nano mean?
nano basically means 10^(-9). nanometer is a unit to measure length.
Bharti
do you think it's worthwhile in the long term to study the effects and possibilities of nanotechnology on viral treatment?
absolutely yes
Daniel
how to know photocatalytic properties of tio2 nanoparticles...what to do now
it is a goid question and i want to know the answer as well
Maciej
Abigail
for teaching engĺish at school how nano technology help us
Anassong
Do somebody tell me a best nano engineering book for beginners?
there is no specific books for beginners but there is book called principle of nanotechnology
NANO
what is fullerene does it is used to make bukky balls
are you nano engineer ?
s.
fullerene is a bucky ball aka Carbon 60 molecule. It was name by the architect Fuller. He design the geodesic dome. it resembles a soccer ball.
Tarell
what is the actual application of fullerenes nowadays?
Damian
That is a great question Damian. best way to answer that question is to Google it. there are hundreds of applications for buck minister fullerenes, from medical to aerospace. you can also find plenty of research papers that will give you great detail on the potential applications of fullerenes.
Tarell
what is the Synthesis, properties,and applications of carbon nano chemistry
Mostly, they use nano carbon for electronics and for materials to be strengthened.
Virgil
is Bucky paper clear?
CYNTHIA
carbon nanotubes has various application in fuel cells membrane, current research on cancer drug,and in electronics MEMS and NEMS etc
NANO
so some one know about replacing silicon atom with phosphorous in semiconductors device?
Yeah, it is a pain to say the least. You basically have to heat the substarte up to around 1000 degrees celcius then pass phosphene gas over top of it, which is explosive and toxic by the way, under very low pressure.
Harper
Do you know which machine is used to that process?
s.
how to fabricate graphene ink ?
for screen printed electrodes ?
SUYASH
What is lattice structure?
of graphene you mean?
Ebrahim
or in general
Ebrahim
in general
s.
Graphene has a hexagonal structure
tahir
On having this app for quite a bit time, Haven't realised there's a chat room in it.
Cied
what is biological synthesis of nanoparticles
how did you get the value of 2000N.What calculations are needed to arrive at it
