P}}\left( {{\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.975,22}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{拢}}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}{\rm{拢\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.025,22}}}^{\rm{2}}} \right){\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.95; }}\\{\rm{d}}{\rm{. P}}\left( {{\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.95,25}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ > }}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}{\rm{ or \chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.5,25}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ < }}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}} \right){\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.1}}\end{array}\)

Step by step solution

01

To determine

(a):

The \({\rm{9}}{{\rm{5}}^{{\rm{th}}}}\)percentile of the chi-squared distribution with \({\rm{\nu = 10}}\)degrees of freedom is the value for which the area to the left of it is \(0.95\). This indicates that \({\rm{\alpha = 1 - 0}}{\rm{.95 = 0}}{\rm{.05}}\)and the critical value is

\({\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.05,10}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ = 18}}{\rm{.307,}}\)

which is the \({\rm{9}}{{\rm{5}}^{{\rm{th}}}}\)percentile. See the following picture where the area to the left of the value is \(0.95\).

(b):

The \({{\rm{5}}^{{\rm{th}}}}\)percentile of the chi-squared distribution with \({\rm{\nu = 10}}\)degrees of freedom is the value for which the area to the left of it is \(0.05\)This indicates that \({\rm{\alpha = 0}}{\rm{.05}}\)and the critical value is

\({\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{1 - 0}}{\rm{.05,10}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ = \chi }}_{{\rm{95,10}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ = 3}}{\rm{.94}}\)

which is the \({{\rm{5}}^{{\rm{th}}}}\)percentile. See the following picture where the area to the left of the value is \(0.05\)

\({\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{1 - \alpha ,22}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ = 10}}{\rm{.987}}\)

02

To determine

(c):

one should at the table in the appendix (this can also be computed with a software). When the value \(10.987\)is found in the table, see that for \({\rm{\alpha = 0}}{\rm{.975}}\)the value is produced. Similarly, from

\({\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{\alpha ,22}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ = 36}}{\rm{.78}}\)

you get \({\rm{\alpha = 0}}{\rm{.025}}\).This means that the area to the left of \({\rm{10}}{\rm{.987 is 0}}{\rm{.025}}\), and the area to the right of \({\rm{36}}{\rm{.78 is 0}}{\rm{.025}}\). This means that the area between those values, and the probability are

\({\rm{P}}\left( {{\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.975,22}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{拢}}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}{\rm{拢\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.025,22}}}^{\rm{2}}} \right){\rm{ = 1 - 0}}{\rm{.025 - 0}}{\rm{.025 = 0}}{\rm{.95}}\)

(d):

The mentioned probability can be computed as the sum of the area which is to the left of value \(14.611\)and the area to the right of \(37.652\)of chi squared distribution with \({\rm{\nu = 25}}\) degrees of freedom. In order to find \({\rm{\alpha }}\)for which

\({\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{1 - \alpha ,25}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ = 14}}{\rm{.611}}\)

one should at the table in the appendix (this can also be computed with a software). When the value $10.987$ is found in the table, see that for \({\rm{\alpha = 0}}{\rm{.95}}\) the value is produced. Similarly, from

\({\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{\alpha ,25}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ = 37}}{\rm{.652}}\)

you get \({\rm{\alpha = 0}}{\rm{.05}}\). This means that the area to the left of \({\rm{14}}{\rm{.611 is 0}}{\rm{.05}}\), and the area to the right of \({\rm{37}}{\rm{.652 is 0}}{\rm{.05}}\). This means that the mentioned sum (the probability) is

\({\rm{P}}\left( {{\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.95,25}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ > }}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}{\rm{ or \chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.5,25}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ < }}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}} \right){\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.05 + 0}}{\rm{.05 = 0}}{\rm{.1}}{\rm{.}}\)

The shaded area on the picture is \(0.9\).

Hence

\(\begin{array}{l}{\rm{ a}}{\rm{. 18}}{\rm{.307; }}\\{\rm{b}}{\rm{. 3}}{\rm{.94; }}\\{\rm{c}}{\rm{. P}}\left( {{\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.975,22}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{拢}}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}{\rm{拢\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.025,22}}}^{\rm{2}}} \right){\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.95; }}\\{\rm{d}}{\rm{. P}}\left( {{\rm{\chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.95,25}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ > }}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}{\rm{ or \chi }}_{{\rm{0}}{\rm{.5,25}}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ < }}{{\rm{\chi }}^{\rm{2}}}} \right){\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.1}}\end{array}\)

A normal probability plot of the n=\({\rm{26}}\) observations on escape time shows a substantial linear pattern; the sample mean and sample standard deviation are \({\rm{370}}{\rm{.69 and 24}}{\rm{.36}}\), respectively.

a. Calculate an upper confidence bound for population mean escape time using a confidence level of \({\rm{95\% }}\)

b. Calculate an upper prediction bound for the escape time of a single additional worker using a prediction level of \({\rm{95\% }}\). How does this bound compare with the confidence bound of part (a)?

c. Suppose that two additional workers will be chosen to participate in the simulated escape exercise. Denote their escape times by \({\rm{X27 and X28}}\), and let X new denote the average of these two values. Modify the formula for a PI for a single x value to obtain a PI for X new, and calculate a 95% two-sided interval based on the given escape data.

The following observations are lifetimes (days) subsequent to diagnosis for individuals suffering from blood cancer (鈥淎 Goodness of Fit Approach to the Class of Life Distributions with Unknown Age,鈥 Quality and Reliability Engr. Intl., \({\rm{2012: 761--766):}}\)

\(\begin{array}{*{20}{l}}{{\rm{115 181 255 418 441 461 516 739 743 789 807}}}\\{{\rm{865 924 983 1025 1062 1063 1165 1191 1222 1222 1251}}}\\{{\rm{1277 1290 1357 1369 1408 1455 1478 1519 1578 1578 1599}}}\\{{\rm{1603 1605 1696 1735 1799 1815 1852 1899 1925 1965}}}\end{array}\)

a. Can a confidence interval for true average lifetime be calculated without assuming anything about the nature of the lifetime distribution? Explain your reasoning. (Note: A normal probability plot of the data exhibits a reasonably linear pattern.)

b. Calculate and interpret a confidence interval with a \({\rm{99\% }}\)confidence level for true average lifetime.

A random sample of n=\({\rm{15}}\)heat pumps of a certain type yielded the following observations on lifetime (in years):

\(\begin{array}{*{20}{l}}{{\rm{2}}{\rm{.0 1}}{\rm{.3 6}}{\rm{.0 1}}{\rm{.9 5}}{\rm{.1 }}{\rm{.4 1}}{\rm{.0 5}}{\rm{.3}}}\\{{\rm{15}}{\rm{.7 }}{\rm{.7 4}}{\rm{.8 }}{\rm{.9 12}}{\rm{.2 5}}{\rm{.3 }}{\rm{.6}}}\end{array}\)

a. Assume that the lifetime distribution is exponential and use an argument parallel to that to obtain a \({\rm{95\% }}\) CI for expected (true average) lifetime.

b. How should the interval of part (a) be altered to achieve a confidence level of \({\rm{99\% }}\)?

c. What is a \({\rm{95\% }}\)CI for the standard deviation of the lifetime distribution? (Hint: What is the standard deviation of an exponential random variable?)

A state legislator wishes to survey residents of her district to see what proportion of the electorate is aware of her position on using state funds to pay for abortions.

a. What sample size is necessary if the \({\rm{95\% }}\)CI for p is to have a width of at most . \({\rm{10}}\)irrespective of p?

b. If the legislator has strong reason to believe that at least \({\rm{2/3}}\)of the electorate know of her position, how large a sample size would you recommend?

It is important that face masks used by fire fighters be able to withstand high temperatures because fire fighters commonly work in temperatures of 200鈥500掳F. In a test of one type of mask, 11 of 55 masks had lenses pop out at 250掳. Construct a 90% upper confidence bound for the true proportion of masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 250掳.
