I need help with the problems below.
Complete the Problems below. Apply the five step hypothesis to each problem and explain how you arrived at your information. Summarize the results
1) A tire manufacturer is studying the position of tires in blowouts. It seems logical that the tire blowouts will be uniformly distributed among the four positions. For a sample of 100 tire failures, is there any significant difference in that tire's position on the car? Use the 0.05 significance level.
Location of Tire on the Car
Left Front---- 28 Left Rear-----20 Right Front-----29 Right Rear-----23
2) In recent years, 42 percent of the American made automobiles sold in the United States were manufactured by General Motors, 33 percent by Ford, 22 percent by Damlier-Chrysler, and 3 percent by all others.
A sample of the sales of American-made automobiles conducted last week revealed that 174 were manufactured by DamlierChrysler, 275 by Ford, 330 by GM, and 21 by all others.
Test the hypothesis at the 0.05 level that there has been no change in the sales pattern.
3) A random sample of 480 male and female adults was asked the amount of time each person spent watching TV last week. Their responses are below.
At the 0.05 significance level, does it appear that the amount of time spent watching TV is related to the gender of the viewer?
Gender of Viewer
Hours Male Female Total
Under 8 70 90 160
8 to 15 100 60 160
15 or more 55 105 160
225 255
