Chapter11 Two-Sample Tests and
One-Way ANOVA (Part I)
Outcomes:
1. Conduct a test of hypothesis for two independent population means
- Use z-test when σ1 and σ2 are known
- Use pooled-variance t test when σ1 and σ2 are unknown but equal
- Use separate-variance t test when σ1 and σ2 are unknown and
unequal
2. Conduct a test of hypothesis for paired or dependent observations,
using the paired t-test
3. Conduct a test of hypothesis for two population proportions
using the z test
4. List the characteristics of the F distributions
5. Conduct a test of hypothesis to determine whether the variances
of two populations are equal, using the F Test
6. Discuss the general idea of Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and its
assumptions
7. Conduct the F Test when there are more than two means
8. Discuss multiple comparisons: The Tukey-Kramer procedure
9. Conduct Levene’s Test for Homogeneity of Variance

Example1
Ryerson Car magazine is comparing the total repair costs incurred during
the first three years on two sport cars, The R123 and the S456. Random
samples of 45 R123 cars are $5300 for the first three years. For the 50
S456 cars, the mean is $5760. Assume that the standard deviations for the
two populations are $1120 and $1350, respectively. Using the 5%
significance level, can we conclude that such mean repair costs are
different for these two types of cars?

Mark is the owner of the Appliance Patch. Mark observed a difference in
the dollars value of sales between the men and women he employed as
sales associates. A sample of 50 days revealed the men sold a mean of
$1560 worth of appliances per day. For a sample of 60 days, the women
sold a mean of $1650 worth appliances per day. Assume the population
standard deviation for men is $204 and for women $259. At the 0.05
significance level, can Mark conclude that the mean amount sold per day is
larger for women?

The operations manager of Ryerson Light Bulb factory wants to determine
if there is any difference in the average life expectancy of bulbs
manufactured on two different types of machine. The process population
standard deviation of machine A is 112 hours and of machine B is 127
hours. A random sample of 35 light bulbs obtained from machine A
indicates a sample mean of 379 hours, and a similar sample of 35 from
machine B indicates a sample mean of 368. Using the 1% significance

Example4
Ryerson Computer Manufacturer offers a help line that purchasers call for
help 24 hours per day, 7 days a week. Clearing these calls for help in a
timely fashion is important to the company’s image. After telling the caller
that resolution of the problem is important the caller is asked whether the
issue is “software” or “hardware” related. A mean time takes a technician
to resolve a software issue is 18 minutes with a standard deviation of 4.2
minutes. This information was obtained from a sample of 35 monitored
calls. For a study of 45 hardware issues, the mean time for a technician to
resolve a problem was 15.5 minutes with a standard deviation of 3.9
minutes. This information was also obtained from monitored calls. Assume
both population standard deviations are the same. At the 0.05
significance level is it reasonable to conclude that it takes longer to resolve
software issue?

The Commercial Bank and the Trust Company are studying the use of it
automatic teller machines (ATM). Of particular interest is whether young
adults (under 25 years) use the machines more than senior citizens. To
investigate further, samples of customers under 25 years of age and
customers over 60 years of age were selected. The number of ATM
transactions last month was determined for each selected individual, and
the results are shown below. Assume the number of times of using ATM
machine for both groups are to be normally distributed and both population

Bradley is the Vice president of Human Resources for Ryerson
Manufacturing Company. In recent years he has noticed an increase in
absenteeism that he thinks is related to the general health of employees.
Three years ago, in an attempt to improve the situation, he began a yoga
program in which employees practice yoga during their lunch hour. To
evaluate this program, he selected a random sample of 10 participants and
found the number of days each was absent in the last twelve months
before the yoga program began and in the last twelve months. Below are

On-line grocery stores provide customers with the convenience of shopping
at home, but this convenience often comes with a lofty price tag due to the
high costs on-line grocers incur related to handling and delivery. In 2008
the largest on-line grocer was Ryerson Inc. with over $58 million in
revenue. A new company, Yes Frills Inc. began operations in 2009, a nineitem shopping list from the two on-line grocers in downtown Toronto for
January 8,2010 is given in the following.

The research department at the head office of Ryerson Insurance
Company conducts ongoing research on the causes of automobile
accidents: the characteristics of the drivers, and so on. A random sample of
500 policies written on single persons revealed 120 had at least one
accident in the previous three-year period. Similarly, a sample of 700
policies written on married persons revealed that 150 had been in at least
one accident. At the 0.05 significance level, is there a significant difference
in the proportions of single and married persons having an accident during
