The "cold start ignition time" of an automobile engine is being investigated by a gasoline manufacturer. The following times (in

seconds) were obtained for a test vehicle: 1.76, 1.84, 2.71, 2.26, 3.15, 3.21, 2.48, 1.87. A second formulation of the gasoline was tested in the same vehicle, with the following times (in seconds): 1.75, 2.08, 3.17, 3.21, 2.74, 2.83, 3.47, 2.47, 1.98, and 3.39. Use this new data along with the cold start times to construct comparative box plots.

Answer:

The boxplots are on the figure attached. And the explanation is below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first formulation we have the following dataset:

1.76, 1.84, 2.71, 2.26, 3.15, 3.21, 2.48, 1.87

We can construct a box plot with the following R code:

> x1<-c( 1.76, 1.84, 2.71, 2.26, 3.15, 3.21, 2.48, 1.87)

> boxplot(x1,main="Boxplot method 1")

For the scond formulation we have the following data:

1.75, 2.08, 3.17, 3.21, 2.74, 2.83, 3.47, 2.47, 1.98

And the boxplot can be constructed with the following R code:

> x2<-c(1.75, 2.08, 3.17, 3.21, 2.74, 2.83, 3.47, 2.47, 1.98)

> boxplot(x2,main="Boxplot method 2")

And we can get the comparative 5 number results for each case:

> summary(x1)

  Min. 1st Qu.  Median    Mean 3rd Qu.    Max.  

 1.760   1.863   2.370   2.410   2.820   3.210  

> summary(x2)

  Min. 1st Qu.  Median    Mean 3rd Qu.    Max.  

 1.750   2.080   2.740   2.633   3.170   3.470

As we can see both histograms shows asymmetrical distributions. For the first method Mean>Median so then we can conclude that the distribution would be approximately skewed to the right. For the second case the Median>Mean so we can conclude that the distribution would be approximately skwewed to the left.

The population of Philadelphia in 1990 was 1,585,577. In 2010 the population was 1,526,006. What is the percent change the popul
UNO [17]

Answer:

-3.9% I.e there is decrease in the population

Step-by-step explanation:

Population @ 1990 = 1585577

Population @ 2010 = 1526006

% change =

(1526006-1585577)/1526006 × 100%

= -59571/1526006 ×100%

= -3.9%

Alla [95]

Answer:

see steps

Step-by-step explanation:

New price  was increase from 100% to 109% at £1800.

By proportionality,

old price / 100% = 1800 / 109%

Cross multiply to get

old price = $1800 * 100% / 109% = £1651.38
