Question:

Test the indicated claim about the variances or standard deviations of two populations. Assume that both samples are independent simple random samples from populations having normal distributions.
Use the summary statistics below to test the claim that the samples come from populations with different variances. Use the significance level of 0.05.
Sample A: n=28; x1=19.2; s=5.2
Sample B: n=41; x2=23.7; s=5.28
Step 1: Claims =
Step 2: Test statistics =
Step 3: Critical value =
Step 4: Comparison =
Step 5: Conclusion =

1. A manufacturer considers his production process to be out of control when defects exceed 2%. In a random sample of 100 items, the defect rate is 4% but the manager claims that this is only a sample fluctuation and product is not really out of control. At the 0.10 level of significance, test the managers claim.
Step 1: Claims =
Step 2: Test statistics =
Step 3: Critical Value =
Step 4: Comparison =
Step 5: Conclusion =

 

2. Imagine your branch saw 2,500 patients in March. From historical data, you know each month you add exactly 160 new patients. At the same time, you know each month your branch has an attrition rate of 5% of the total patient base. This attrition is due to factors such as patients cancelling services, disenrolling from the necessary insurance plan, moving to a location your physicians don’t serve, etc.
Knowing the above information and assuming the fixed figures of 160 and 5%, please calculate the maximum number of patients your branch will ever see in a given month.
