Chapter 4: Q. 49 (page 263)

Growing in the shade- The ability to grow in shade may help pine trees found in the dry forests of Arizona to resist drought. How well do these pines grow in shade? Investigators planted pine seedlings in a greenhouse in either full light, light reduced to 25% of normal by shade cloth, or light reduced to 5% of normal. At the end of

the study, they dried the young trees and weighed them. Identify the experimental units and the treatments.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The experimental units is Pine seedlings and Treatment is Full light ,25%light and 5%light .

Step by step solution

01

Given information

We need to find that how well do these pines grow in shade and need to identify the experimental units and the treatments

02

Explanation

Here we need to find experimental units in this case ,

So by experimental design - the experimental unit is Pine seedlings

Experimental variable - Light intensity

As , light reduced to 25% of normal by shade cloth, or light reduced to5% of normal in this case so,

Treatment - Full light ,25% light and 5% light .

Sampling gravestones The local genealogical society in Coles County, Illinois, has compiled records on all 55,194gravestones in cemeteries in the county for the years 1825to 1985. Historians plan to use these records to learn about African Americans in Coles County鈥檚 history. They first choose an SRS of 395records to check their accuracy by visiting the actual gravestones.

a. Explain how you would use a random number generator to choose the SRS. Your description should be clear enough for a classmate to carry out your plan.

b. Use your method from part (a) to choose the first 3gravestones

Sealing your teeth- Many children have their molars sealed to help prevent cavities. In an experiment, 120children aged6鈥�8were randomly assigned to a control group, a group in which sealant was applied and reapplied periodically for 36months, and a group in which fluoride varnish was applied and reapplied periodically for 42months. After 9years, the percent of initially healthy molars with cavities was calculated for each group. Identify the experimental units and the treatments.

Your statistics class has 30students. You want to ask an SRS of 5students from your class whether they use a mobile device for the online quizzes. You label the students 01,02,...,30. You enter the table of random digits at this line: 1445926056314248037165103622532249061181

Your SRS contains the students labeled

a. 14,45,92,60,56

b. 14,31,03,10,22

c. 14,03,10,22,22

d.14,03,10,22,06

e.14,03,10,22,11

Sampling the forestTo gather data on a 1200-acre pine forest in Louisiana, the U.S. Forest Service laid a grid of 1410equally spaced circular plots over a map of the forest. A ground survey visited a sample of 10%of the plots.

a. Explain how you would use a random number generator to choose an SRS of 141plots. Your description should be clear enough for a classmate to carry out your plan.

b. Use your method from part (a) to choose the first 3plots.

Can a vegetarian or low-salt diet reduce blood pressure? Men with high blood pressure are

assigned at random to one of four diets: (1) normal diet with unrestricted salt; (2)

vegetarian with unrestricted salt; (3) normal with restricted salt; and (4) vegetarian with

restricted salt. This experiment has

  1. one factor, the type of diet.
  2. two factors, high blood pressure and type of diet.
  3. two factors, normal/vegetarian diet and unrestricted/restricted salt.
  4. three factors, men, high blood pressure, and type of diet.
  5. four factors, the four diets being compared.
