GUIDED EXERCISE 3.5

Two filling machines are being tested. Sixteen manufactured
products from each machine are weighed. The sample mean
and variance for the first machine is 101.15 and 6.24 and for
the second machine is 100.36 and 5.76 respectively. Suppose
the true difference in weight is 2.45 and we want to detect this
with probability at least 0.80 at a significance level of = 0.05.
What is the required sample size?

GUIDED EXERCISE 4.1

Suppose we want to know if the IE 27 Second Long Exam was
really more difficult than the IE 27 Third Long Exam. Nine
students were randomly selected and their scores in the
second and third exams are recorded and shown below. Test
this hypothesis at a significance level of = 0.05

GUIDED EXERCISE 4.2

A certain study to compare the variances of sugar content in
two brands of candies yielded a variance of 1.35 and 2.68
respectively. The first brand has 13 samples tested while the
second brand has 16 samples tested. Test the hypothesis that
the two variances are not equal at a significance level of =
0.05.

GUIDED EXERCISE 4.3

A certain study to compare the variances of sugar content
in two brands of candies yielded a variance of 1.35 and
2.68 respectively. The first brand has 13 samples tested
while the second brand has 16 samples tested. Suppose if
the variance of one brand becomes thrice the variance of
another brand, we wish to detect this with probability of
at least 0.70. What is the required sample size?

In a lot with 1000 toy balls, a sample of 80 is taken and
the number of defective toy balls in the sample was found
to be 6. A second sample of 100 is taken and the number
of defective toy balls in the sample was found to be 5.
Test the hypothesis that the proportion in the second
sample is lower at a significance level of = 0.05.
