Consider the next \({\rm{1000}}\) 95% CIs for m that a statistical consultant will obtain for various clients. Suppose the data sets on which the intervals are based are selected independently of one another. How many of these\({\rm{1000}}\)intervals do you expect to capture the corresponding value of m? What is the probability that between \({\rm{940 and 960}}\)Do these intervals contain the corresponding value of m? (Hint: Let Y = the number among the \({\rm{1000}}\) intervals that contain m. What kind of random variable is Y?)

Short Answer

Expert verified

\(P(940 \le Y \le 960) = 0.853\)

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: 

Random variable Y is a binomial random variable with parameters \({\rm{1000}}\) and \({\rm{p = 95\% = 0}}{\rm{.95}}\) Proposition: For a binomial random variable X with parameters n, p, and q=\(1\)-p, the following is true

\(\begin{array}{l}{\rm{E(X) = npn}}\\{\rm{V(X) = np(1 - p) = npqn}}\\{{\rm{\sigma }}_{\rm{X}}}{\rm{ = }}\sqrt {{\rm{npq}}} \end{array}\)

Therefore, the expected number among the 1000 to capture mu is

\({\rm{E(Y) = n \times p = 1000 \times 0}}{\rm{.95 = 950}}\)

In order to calculate the probability, the standard deviation is required to obtain the normalization of a binomial random variable. The standard deviation is

\({{\rm{\sigma }}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{ = }}\sqrt {{\rm{npq}}} {\rm{ = }}\sqrt {{\rm{1000 \times 0}}{\rm{.95 \times 0}}{\rm{.05}}} {\rm{ = 6}}{\rm{.892}}\)

02

To find the probability

Finally, the probability is

\(\begin{array}{l}P(940 \le Y \le 960) = P\left( {\frac{{940 - 950}}{{6.892}} \le \frac{{Y - E(Y)}}{{{\sigma _Y}}} \le \frac{{960 - 950}}{{6.892}}} \right)\\ = P( - 1.45 \le Z \le 1.45)\\ = P(Z \le 1.45) - P(Z \le - 1.45)\end{array}\)

from the normal probability table in the appendix. The probability can also be computed with software.

Hence the kind of random variable y is

\(P(940 \le Y \le 960) = 0.853\)

On the basis of extensive tests, the yield point of a particular type of mild steel-reinforcing bar is known to be normally distributed with\({\rm{\sigma = 100,}}\)The composition of bars has been slightly modified, but the modification is not believed to have affected either the normality or the value of\({\rm{\sigma }}\).

a. Assuming this to be the case, if a sample of 25 modified bars resulted in a sample average yield point of 8439 lb, compute a 90% CI for the true average yield point of the modified bar.

b. How would you modify the interval in part (a) to obtain a confidence level of 92%?

For those of you who don鈥檛 already know, dragon boat racing is a competitive water sport that involves 20 paddlers propelling a boat across various race distances. It has become increasingly popular over the last few years. The article 鈥淧hysiological and Physical Characteristics of Elite Dragon Boat Paddlers鈥 (J. of Strength and Conditioning, 2013: 137鈥145) summarized an extensive statistical analysis of data obtained from a sample of 11 paddlers. It reported that a 95% confidence interval for true average force (N) during a simulated 200-m race was (60.2, 70.6). Obtain a 95% prediction interval for the force of a single randomly selected dragon boat paddler undergoing the simulated race.

a.Use the results of Example 7.5 to obtain a 95% lower confidence bound for the parameter of an exponential distribution, and calculate the bound based on the data given in the example.

b.If lifetime X has an exponential distribution, the probability that lifetime exceeds t is P(X>t) = e-位迟. Use the result of part (a) to obtain a 95% lower confidence bound for the probability that breakdown time exceeds 100 min.

presented a sample of \({\rm{n = 153}}\)observations on ultimate tensile strength, the previous section gave summary quantities and requested a large-sample confidence interval. Because the sample size is large, no assumptions about the population distribution are required for the validity of the CI.

a. Is any assumption about the tensile-strength distribution required prior to calculating a lower prediction bound for the tensile strength of the next specimen selected using the method described in this section? Explain.

b. Use a statistical software package to investigate the plausibility of a normal population distribution.

c. Calculate a lower prediction bound with a prediction level of \({\rm{95\% }}\)for the ultimate tensile strength of the next specimen selected.

Silicone implant augmentation rhinoplasty is used to correct congenital nose deformities. The success of the procedure depends on various biomechanical properties of the human nasal periosteum and fascia. The article 鈥淏iomechanics in Augmentation Rhinoplasty鈥 reported that for a sample of 15 (newly deceased) adults, the mean failure strain (%) was 25.0, and the standard deviation was 3.5.

a. Assuming a normal distribution for failure strain, estimate true average strain in a way that conveys information about precision and reliability.

b. Predict the strain for a single adult in a way that conveys information about precision and reliability. How does the prediction compare to the estimate calculated in part (a)?
