Plant Density and Tomato Yield. In "Effects of Plant Density on Tomato Yields in Western Nigeria" (Experimental Agriculture,Vol. 12(1), pp. 43-47 ), B. Adelana reported on the effect of tomato variety and planting density on yield. Four tomato varieties (Harvester, Pusa Early Dwarf, Ife No. 1, and Ibadan Local ) were grown at four densities ( 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, and 40,000 plants/ha). Identify the

a. experimental units. b. response variable.

c. factor (s). d. levels of each factor.

e. treatments.

Short Answer

Part (a) tomato plants.

Part (b) Yields of Tomato plants.

Part (c) tomato varieties and tomato densities.

Part (d) Harvester, Pusa Early Dwarf, Ife No. 1, and Ibadan Local, and 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, and 40,000.

Part (e) 16

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given information.

The given statement is:

The effect of tomato variety and planting density on yield were studied.

There are four tomato varieties (Harvester, Pusa Early Dwarf, Ife No. 1, and Ibadan Local ) were grown at four densities ( 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, and 40,000 plants/ha).

02

Part (a) Step 2. Identify the experimental units.

Taking into consideration the given designed experiment, the Experimental units are tomato plants.

03

Part (b) Step 1. Identify the response variable.

The response variable is the Yields of Tomato plants.

04

Part (c) Step 1. Identify the factor.

Here, the factors include:

  1. tomato varieties
  2. tomato densities
05

Part (d) Step 1. Identify the levels of each factor.

The four levels of tomato varieties are:

  1. Harvester,
  2. Pusa Early Dwarf,
  3. Ife No. 1, and
  4. Ibadan Local

The four levels of tomato densities are:

  1. 10,000,
  2. 20,000,
  3. 30,000,
  4. 40,000
06

Part (e) Step 1. Identify the treatments.

Treatments are a mix of tomato varieties and tomato densities levels.

Persistent Poverty and IQ. An article appearing in an issue of the Arizona Republic reported on a study conducted by G. Duncan of the University of Michigan. According to the report, "Persistent poverty during the first 5 years of life leaves children with IQs 9.1 points lower at age 5 than children who suffer no poverty during that period...." Is this statistical study an observational study or is it a designed experiment? Explain your answer.

Ideally, in stratified sampling, the members of each stratum should be relative to the characteristic under consideration.

Oklahoma State Officials. The five top Oklahoma state officials are displayed in Table 1.2 on page 11. Use that table to solve the following problems.

(a) List the possible samples of size 1 that can be obtained from the population of five officials.

(b) What is the difference between obtaining a simple random sample of size 1 and selecting one official at random?

(c) List the possible samples (without replacement) of size 5 that can be obtained from the population of five officials.

(d) What is the difference between obtaining a simple random sample of size 5 and taking a census of the five officials?

In Exercises 1.17-1.22, state whether the investigation in question is an observational study or a designed experiment. Justify your answer in each case.

Aspirin and Cardiovascular Disease. In the article by P. Ridker et al. titled "A Randomized of Low-dose Aspirin in the Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease in Women" (New England Journal of Medicine, Vol. 352, pp. 1293鈥�1304), the researchers noted that "We randomly assigned 39,876 initially healthy women 45 years of age or older to receive 100 mg of aspirin or placebo on alternate days and then monitored them for 10 years for a first major cardiovascular event (i.e., nonfatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, death from cardiovascular causes)."

The members of a population are numbered 1-50.

(a). Use Table I in Appendix A to obtain an SRS of size 6 from the population. Start at the two-digit number in line number 10 and column numbers 10-11, read down the column, up the next, and so on.

(b). If you have access to a random-number generator, use it to solve part (a)
