It is known that 3500 out of 10000 families in town A and 1500 out of 5000 families in town B regularly purchased The Light magazine. If a random sample of 50 families from town A and a random sample of 45 families from town B were taken, nd the probability that (a) the proportion of The Light readers in town A exceeds the proportion of The Light readers in town B. (b) the proportions dier by at least 3%.

A fuel economy study was conducted for two automobiles, Persona and Impiana. One vehicle of each brand was selected, and the mileage performance was observed for 10 tanks of fuel in each car. The data are as follows (mpg): Persona 24.7 24.5 24.6 Impiana 34.7 34.5 34.8

Assume that each sample was drawn from normal population, (a) conrm using = 0.05 signicance level that the variability in milage performance for Persona and Impiana are the same. (b) test whether there is sucient evidence to support the claim that the milage performance for Impiana is better than for Persona at = 0.01 signicance level. (c) construct 99% condence interval for the dierence between the two population means.

In a company quality report, a statistical method engineer describes an experiment to determine the eect of C2 F6 ow rate on the uniformity of the etch on a silicon wafer used in integrated circuit manufacturing. Four ow rates are used in the experiment, and the resulting uniformity (in percent) for six replicates is shown below: C2 F 6 Observations (SCCM) 1 2 3 4 5 6 95 2.6 4.5 2.5 2.9 3.2 3.7 125 2.7 4.6 2.6 3.0 3.2 3.8 160 4.9 4.6 5.0 4.2 3.6 4.2 200 4.6 3.4 2.9 3.5 4.1 5.1

Total 19.4 19.9 26.5 23.6

Assume that the uniformity of the etch on a silicon wafer for all four rate are independent and follow normal distribution with means 1 , 2 , 3 and 4 and common variance 2 . (a) Write the appropriate model for this experiment. (b) Write the hypotheses for this experiment. (c) Reconstruct and complete the following ANOVA table and test whether the sample data provides sucient evidence that C2 F6 ow rate aects etch uniformity on a silicon wafer at = 0.01.

When nicotine is absorbed by the body, cotinine is produced. It is believed that a measurement of cotinine in the body is therefore a good indicator of how much a person smokes. Listed below are the number of cigarettes smoked per day and the measured amounts on nicotine (in ng/mL).

Based on the above output from Microsoft Excel answer the following questions. (a) Obtain the Pearson product moment correlation coecient between number of cigarettes smoked per day and the amount of cotinine in the body. What can this value tell you about their relationship? (b) Write the estimated regression line. (c) Find the predicted mean amount of cotinine level given that the number of cigarettes smoked per day is 12. (d) Do we have sucient evidence to conclude that there exists a linear relationship between number of cigarettes smoked per day and the amount of cotinine in the body at 5% signicance level. 4

12 cars are tted with fuel saving devices. The fuel consumption (in km/liter of petrol) before and after being tted with the device are as follows: Car A B C Before 12 13 13 After 13 15 14 D E F G H I J 16 10 9 8 13 17 15 15 11 10 10 16 15 17 K L 16 14 18 16

Use sign test to test the hypothesis that the device improves the fuel consumption at signicance level = 0.05
