As part of an experiment to see how different types of soil cover would affect slicing tomato production, Marist College students grew tomato plants under different soil cover conditions. Groups of three plants each had one of the following treatments ⚫ bare soil • B a commercial ground cover black plastic ° straw ⚫ compost All plants grew under the same conditions and were the same variety. Students recorded the weight (in grams) of tomatoes produced by each of the n = 15 plants: Bare: n₁ = Ground Cover: n₂ = Plastic: n3 = Straw: n4= Compost: n5 = 3 3 3 3 3 2,625 5,348 6,583 7,285 6,277 2,997 5,682 8,560 6,897 7,818 4,915 5,482 3,830 9,230 8,677 Table 12.6 Ground Bare Cover Plastic Straw Composite 2,626 5,348 6,583 7,285 6,277 2,997 5,682 8,560 6,897 7,818 4,915 5,482 3,830 9,230 8,677 SSE 20,446,726 SSTR 36,648,561 MSE= MSE SSE/nt-k MSTR F SSTR/k-1 F= MSTR/MSE

A study was carried out to determine the influence of a trace elementfound in soil on the yield of potato plants grown in that soil, defined asthe weight of potatoes produced at the end of the season. A large fieldwas divided up into 14 smaller sections for this experiment. For eachsection, the experimenter recorded the amount of the trace elementfound (in milligrams per metre squared) and the corresponding weightof the potatoes produced (in kilograms). This information is presentedin the worksheet ‘Dataset5’ in the Excel document. Define X as thetrace element amount and Y as the yield.1. Draw a scatterplot of your data set.Page 52. Calculate the coefficients of a linear equation to predict the yieldY as a function of X.3. Calculate the correlation coefficient for the paired data values.4. Set up the framework for an appropriate statistical test to establish if there is a correlation between the amount of the trace element and the yield. Explain how having the scatterplot referredto…

Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body composition, which can be used to assess if someone is underweight, healthy weight, overweight but not obese, or obese. It is calculated as a person’s weight (measured in Kilograms) divided by his/her height (measured in meters) squared. We recorded 5 students’ BMI values and the numbers of hours they exercised in the past week, as following: BMI 18.4 19.6 20.5 27.6 30.6 Hours of exercise 3.0 2.5 4.0 2.7 0.5 What is the value of r?
The age of a tree can be determined by counting each annual growth ring in the trunk of the tree. A common measure of the size of a tree is the "diameter at breast height" DBH. "Breast height" is defined as 4 ½ feet above the uphill side of the tree.

In a study at The Ohio State University, 16 student volunteers drank a randomly assigned number of cans of beer. Thirty minutes later, a police officer measured their blood alcohol content (BAC) in grams of alcohol per deciliter of blood. Throughout the United States, the legal BAC limit is 0.08. The students were equally divided between men and women and differed in weight and usual drinking habits. Because of this variation, many students do not believe that the number of ingested drinks predicts BAC well.The data in the given figure consists of: a.2 unpaired sets of values, each of which has 16 values b.32 ordered pairs of values c.16 ordered pairs of values
When testing a new drug, scientists measure the amount of the active ingredient that is absorbed by the body. In a study done at the Colorado School of Mines, a new antifungal medication that was designed to be applied to the skin was tested. The medication was applied to the skin of eight adult subjects. One hour later, the amount of active ingredient that had been absorbed into the skin was measured for each subject. The results, in micrograms, were 1.28 1.36 2.01 3.20 1.00 2.50 3.36 3.50 Is the mean amount absorbed greater than 2 micrograms. Use the a = 0.05 level of significance. (A) Yes (В) No
