Cloud seeding has been studied for many decades as a weather modification procedure (for an interesting study of this subject, see the article in technometrics, “a bayesian analysis of a multiplicative treatment effect in weather modification,” 1975, vol. 17, pp. 161–166). the rainfall in acre-feet from 20 clouds that were selected at random and seeded with silver nitrate follows: 18.0, 30.7, 19.8, 27, 1, 22.3, 18.8 31.8, 23.4, 21.2, 27.9, 31.9, 27.1, 25.0, 24.7, 26.9, 21.8, 29.2, 34.8, 26.7, and 31.6. (a) can you support a claim that mean rainfall from seeded clouds exceeds 25 acre-feet? use alpha = 0.01 find the p-value. (b) check that rainfall is normally distributed. (c) compute the power of the test if the true mean rainfall it 27 acre-feet (d) what sample size would be required to detect a true mean rainfall of 27 5 acre-feet if we wanted the power of the test to be at least 0.9? (e) explain how the question in part (a) could be answered by constructing a one-sided confidence bound on the mean diameter.

step-by-step explanation:

if gloria has "carry over" minutes, (that is, any minutes paid for but not used in a month can be applied to her payment for minutes in the next month,) her total usage for the three months is: total minutes = 320 + 243 + 489 = 1052 minutes number of 200 minute blocks = 1052/200 = 5 r52 (that is 5 with a remainder of 52) rounding up the number of 200 minute blocks gives her usage for the three months as 6 blocks. the cost for six blocks is 6 x $25 = $150 she also has 200 - 52 or 148 carry over minutes if gloria pays each month and unused minutes are lost, applying the rounding up procedure to each month gives: first month usage of 320 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 second month usage of 243 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 third month usage of 489 minutes rounds up to 3 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 3 x $25 = $75 total payments for the three months are $50 + $50 + $75 = $175 get the plan with carry over minutes!
