Note: To develop and conduct test hypotheses, analyze, and interpret data and use scientific

judgement to draw conclusions.

$1.$ Formulate the hypothesis for the given problem.

$2.$ Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test $($Solve the problem to test the hypothesis$).$

$3.$ Interpret results and evaluate outcomes to draw conclusion$($s$).$

Guidelines:

Work Neatly:

Write your solutions as neatly as possible. Illegible or poorly written answers may result in a

loss of points if the instructor$/$grader cannot understand your reasoning.

Manual Solution:

Perform your solution manually to solve the problems $($a calculate is allowed$).$ This includes

showing all intermediate steps and the formulas used. The goal is to demonstrate a thorough

understanding of the problem$-$solving process.

Validation with Software:

After manually solving the problems, use Excel or MATLAB to validate your results. This step is

for verification purposes only and should not be the primary method for arriving at the

solution.

Solution Deliverable Format:

Present your final solutions in a clear and organized manner. Clearly indicate the steps taken

and provide explanations where necessary. The format should be conducive to easy

understanding.

Points Allocation:

Points will be awarded based on the correctness of the solution and the clarity of the presented

work. Failure to show your work will result in earning only $10\%$ of the points for the respective

question.

Follow the Given Format:

Adhere to any specific formatting guidelines provided for the questions. Ensure that your

solutions are presented in the requested format.Assuming a setup errors of ${}_i=+-0\mathrm{.}003ft$ and ${}_t=+-0\mathrm{.}01ft,$ what is the estimated error in a

distance of length $2544\mathrm{.}93ft$ using an EDM with stated accuracies of $3mm+-3ppm?$
