Fusible interlinings are being used with increasing frequency to support outer fabrics and improve the shape and drape of various pieces of clothing. The article "Compatibility of Outer and Fusible Interlining Fabrics in Tailored Garments" (Textile Res. J., \(1997: 137 - 142\)) gave the accompanying data on extensibility\((\% )\)at\(100gm/cm\)for both high-quality (H) fabric and poor-quality (P) fabric specimens.

\(\begin{array}{*{20}{r}}H&{1.2}&{.9}&{.7}&{1.0}&{1.7}&{1.7}&{1.1}&{.9}&{1.7}\\{}&{1.9}&{1.3}&{2.1}&{1.6}&{1.8}&{1.4}&{1.3}&{1.9}&{1.6}\\{}&{.8}&{2.0}&{1.7}&{1.6}&{2.3}&{2.0}&{}&{}&{}\\P&{1.6}&{1.5}&{1.1}&{2.1}&{1.5}&{1.3}&{1.0}&{2.6}&{}\end{array}\)

a. Construct normal probability plots to verify the plausibility of both samples having been selected from normal population distributions.

b. Construct a comparative boxplot. Does it suggest that there is a difference between true average extensibility for high-quality fabric specimens and that for poor-quality specimens?

c. The sample mean and standard deviation for the highquality sample are\(1.508\)and\(.444\), respectively, and those for the poor-quality sample are\(1.588\)and\(.530.\)Use the two-sample\(t\)test to decide whether true average extensibility differs for the two types of fabric.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) Plausible

(b) A small difference

(c) There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the true average extensibility differs for the two types of fabric.

Step by step solution

01

a)Step 1: Determine the normal probability plot H

Given:

H: \(\;1.2,{\rm{ }}0.9,{\rm{ }}0.7,{\rm{ }}1,{\rm{ }}1.7,{\rm{ }}1.7,{\rm{ }}1.1,{\rm{ }}0.9,{\rm{ }}1.7,{\rm{ }}1.9,{\rm{ }}1.3,{\rm{ }}2.1,{\rm{ }}1.6,{\rm{ }}1.8,{\rm{ }}1.4,{\rm{ }}1.3,{\rm{ }}1.9,{\rm{ }}1.6,{\rm{ }}0.8,{\rm{ }}2,{\rm{ }}1.7,{\rm{ }}1.6,{\rm{ }}2.3,{\rm{ }}2\)

P:\(1.6,1.5,1.1,2.1,1.5,1.3,1,2.6\)

(a) If we want to perform a two-sample\(t\)test, then we require that both sampling distributions of the sample mean are approximately normal.

We will create a normal probability plot.

The data values are on the horizontal axis and the standardized normal scores are on the vertical axis.

If the data contains\(n\)data values, then the standardized normal scores are the\(z\)-scores in the normal probability table of the appendix corresponding to an area of \(\frac{{j - 0.5}}{n}\)(or the closest area) with \(j \in \{ 1,2,3, \ldots .,n\} \).

The smallest standardized score corresponds with the smallest data value, the second smallest standardized score corresponds with the second smallest data value, and so on.

02

Determine the normal probability plot P

\(P\)

We will create a normal probability plot.

The data values are on the horizontal axis and the standardized normal scores are on the vertical axis.

If the data contains\(n\)data values, then the standardized normal scores are the\(z\)-scores in the normal probability table of the appendix corresponding to an area of \(\frac{{j - 0.5}}{n}\)(or the closest area) with\(j \in \{ 1,2,3, \ldots .,n\} \).

The smallest standardized score corresponds with the smallest data value, the second smallest standardized score corresponds with the second smallest data value, and so on.

If the pattern in the normal probability plot is roughly linear and does not contain strong curvature, then the population distribution is approximately normal.

Both probability plots do not contain strong curvature and are roughly linear, thus both population distributions are approximately normal.

Since the population distributions are approximately normal, the sampling distribution of the sample mean(s) \(\bar x\)are also approximately normal thus it is appropriate to use the two-sample\(t\) test.

03

b)Step 3: Sort all data values from smallest to largest

\({\rm{H}}:0.7,0.8,0.9,0.9,1,1.1,1.2,1.3,1.3,1.4,1.6,1.6,1.6,1.7,1.7,1.7,1.7,1.8,1.9,1.9,2,2,2.1,2.3\)

P:\(1,1.1,1.3,1.5,1.5,1.6,2.1,2.6\)

The minimum is.

Since the number of data values is even, the median is the average of the two middle values of the sorted data set:

\(M = {Q_2} = \frac{{1.6 + 1.6}}{2} = 1.6\)

The first quartile is the median of the data values below the median (or at\(25\% \)of the data):

\({Q_1} = \frac{{1.1 + 1.2}}{2} = 1.15\)

The third quartile is the median of the data values above the median (or at\(75\% \)of the data):

\({Q_3} = \frac{{1.8 + 1.9}}{2} = 1.85\)

The maximum is \(2.3.\)

04

Find  the value for High Quartile

HIGH

The minimum is\(1.\)

Since the number of data values is even, the median is the average of the two middle values of the sorted data set:

\(M = {Q_2} = \frac{{1.5 + 1.5}}{2} = 1.5\)

The first quartile is the median of the data values below the median (or at\(25\% \)of the data):

\({Q_1} = \frac{{1.1 + 1.3}}{2} = 1.2\)

The third quartile is the median of the data values above the median (or at\(75\% \)of the data):

\({Q_3} = \frac{{1.6 + 2.1}}{2} = 1.85\)

The maximum is \(2.6.\)

05

Plot the graph

BOXPLOT

The whiskers of the boxplot are at the minimum and maximum value. The box starts at the first quartile, ends at the third quartile and has a vertical line at the median.

The first quartile is at\(25\% \)of the sorted data list, the median at \(50\% \) and the third quartile at\(75\% \)

There appears to be a small difference between the true average extensibility for high-quality fabric specimens and that for poor-quality specimens, because the vertical line in the box of the boxplot is not at roughly the same position in both boxplots.

06

C)Step 6: Determine the test statistic

(c)

\(\begin{array}{l}{{\bar x}_1} = 1.508\\{{\bar x}_2} = 1.588\\{s_1} = 0.444\\{s_2} = 0.530\end{array}\)

Let us assume:\(\alpha = 0.05\)

Given claim: differs

The claim is either the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis. The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis state the opposite of each other. The null hypothesis needs to contain the value mentioned in the claim.

\(\begin{array}{l}{H_0}:{\mu _1} = {\mu _{\scriptstyle2\atop\scriptstyle}}\\{H_a}:{\mu _1} \ne {\mu _2}\end{array}\)

Determine the test statistic:

\(t = \frac{{{{\bar x}_1} - {{\bar x}_2}}}{{\sqrt {\frac{{s_1^2}}{{{n_1}}} + \frac{{s_2^2}}{{{n_2}}}} }} = \frac{{1.508 - 1.588}}{{\sqrt {\frac{{{{0.444}^2}}}{{24}} + \frac{{{{0.530}^2}}}{8}} }} \approx - 0.384\)

Determine the degrees of freedom (rounded down to the nearest integer):

\(\Delta = \frac{{{{\left( {\frac{{s_1^2}}{{{n_1}}} + \frac{{s_2^2}}{{{n_2}}}} \right)}^2}}}{{\frac{{{{\left( {s_1^2/{n_1}} \right)}^2}}}{{{n_1} - 1}} + \frac{{{{\left( {s_2^2/{n_2}} \right)}^2}}}{{{n_2} - 1}}}} = \frac{{{{\left( {\frac{{{{0.444}^2}}}{{24}} + \frac{{{{0.530}^2}}}{8}} \right)}^2}}}{{\frac{{{{\left( {{{0.444}^2}/24} \right)}^2}}}{{24 - 1}} + \frac{{{{\left( {{{0.530}^2}/8} \right)}^2}}}{{8 - 1}}}} \approx 10\)

The P-value is the probability of obtaining the value of the test statistic, or a value more extreme. The P-value is the number (or interval) in the column title of Student's\(T\)distribution in the appendix containing the t-value in the row\(df = 10\):

\(P > 2 \times 0.10 = 0.20\)

If the P-value is less than or equal to the significance level, then the null hypothesis is rejected:

\(P > 0.05 \Rightarrow {\rm{ Fail to reject }}{H_0}\)

There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the true average extensibility differs for the two types of fabric.

Researchers sent 5000 resumes in response to job ads that appeared in the Boston Globe and Chicago Tribune. The resumes were identical except that 2500 of them had "white sounding" first names, such as Brett and Emily, whereas the other 2500 had "black sounding" names such as Tamika and Rasheed. The resumes of the first type elicited 250 responses and the resumes of the second type only 167 responses (these numbers are very consistent with information that appeared in a Jan. 15. 2003, report by the Associated Press). Does this data strongly suggest that a resume with a "black" name is less likely to result in a response than is a resume with a "white" name?

How does energy intake compare to energy expenditure? One aspect of this issue was considered in the article 鈥淢easurement of Total Energy Expenditure by the Doubly Labelled Water Method in Professional Soccer Players鈥 (J. of Sports Sciences, 2002: 391鈥397), which contained the accompanying data (MJ/day).

Test to see whether there is a significant difference between intake and expenditure. Does the conclusion depend on whether a significance level of .05, .01, or .001 is used?

Pilates is a popular set of exercises for the treatment of individuals with lower back pain. The method has six basic principles: centering, concentration, control, precision, flow, and breathing. The article 鈥淓fficacy of the Addition of Modified Pilates Exercises to a Minimal Intervention in Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial鈥 (Physical Therapy, \(2013:309 - 321\)) reported on an experiment involving \(86\) subjects with nonspecific low back pain. The participants were randomly divided into two groups of equal size. The first group received just educational materials, whereas the second group participated in \(6\) weeks of Pilates exercises. The sample mean level of pain (on a scale from \(0\) to \(10\)) for the control group at a \(6\)-week follow-up was \(5.2\) and the sample mean for the treatment group was \(3.1\); both sample standard deviations were \(2.3\).

a. Does it appear that true average pain level for the control condition exceeds that for the treatment condition? Carry out a test of hypotheses using a significance level of \(.01\) (the cited article reported statistical significance at this a, and a sample mean difference of \(2.1\) also suggests practical significance)

b. Does it appear that true average pain level for the control condition exceeds that for the treatment condition by more than \(1\)? Carry out a test of appropriate hypotheses

Suppose a level .05 test of \({H_0}:{\mu _1} - {\mu _2} = 0\) versus \({H_a}:{\mu _1} - {\mu _2} > 0\) is to be performed, assuming \((m = n)\)\({\sigma _1} = {\sigma _2} = \)10 and normality of both distributions, using equal sample sizes. Evaluate the probability of a type II error when \({\mu _1} - {\mu _2} = 1\) and\(n = 25,100,2500\), and 10,000. Can you think of real problems in which the difference \({\mu _1} - {\mu _2} = 1\)has little practical significance? Would sample sizes of n=10,000 be desirable in such problems?

The derailment of a freight train due to the catastrophic failure of a traction motor armature bearing provided the impetus for a study reported in the article "Locomotive Traction Motor Armature Bearing Life Study" (Lubrication Engr., Aug. 1997: 12-19). A sample of high-mileage traction motors was selected, and the amount of cone penetration (mm/ 10) was determined both for the pinion bearing and for the commutator armature bearing, resulting in the following data:

Motor

1 2 3 4 5 6

Commutator 211 273 305 258 270 209

Pinion 266 278 259 244 273 236

Motor

7 8 9 10 11 12

Commutator 223 288 296 233 262 291

Pinion 290 287 315 242 288 242

Motor

13 14 15 16 17

Commutator 278 275 210 272 264

Pinion 278 208 281 274 268

Calculate an estimate of the population mean difference between penetration for the commutator armature bearing and penetration for the pinion bearing, and do so in a way that conveys information about the reliability and precision of the estimate. (Note: A normal probability plot validates the necessary normality assumption.) Would you say that the population mean difference has been precisely estimated? Does it look as though population mean penetration differs for the two types of bearings? Explain.
