Suppose it is desired to estimate the average time a customer spends in a particular store to within 5 minutes (e.g., + 5 minutes) at 99 reliability. It is estimated that the standard deviation of the times is 15 minutes.
 
  How large a sample should be taken to get the desired interval?
  A) n = 35 B) n = 299 C) n = 25 D) n = 60

Question 2

Suppose a company makes 4 different frozen dinners, and tests their ability to attract customers. They test the frozen dinners in 13 different stores in order to account for any extraneous sources of variation.
 
  The company records the number of customers who purchase each product at each store. What assumptions are necessary for the validity of the F statistic for comparing the response means of the 4 frozen dinners?
  A) The means of the observations corresponding to all the block-treatment combinations are equal, and the variances of all the probability distributions are equal.
  B) The probability distributions of observations corresponding to all the block-treatment combinations are normal, and the sampling distributions of the variances of all the block-treatment combinations are normally distributed.
  C) The probability distributions of observations corresponding to all the block-treatment combinations are normal, and the variances of all the probability distributions are equal.
  D) None. The Central Limit Theorem eliminates the need for any assumptions.

Hippocrates noted that blood separates into four differently colored liquids when removed from the body and examined: a pure red liquid mixed with white liquid material with a yellow-colored froth at the top and a black substance that settles underneath; he named these the four humors (for blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile).
