The way that I applied the steps of the scientific method in the activity, was first I made an observation that my car wasn’t starting. After I made the observation, I came up with a couple hypotheses as to why the car wasn’t starting, I came up with electrical problems. I came up with the prediction that if I changed the spark plugs that would make the car start. I than performed an experiment by changing the spark plugs. After changing the spark plugs, the car still wouldn’t start. The fact that

1.) A scientific theory is a widely accepted and both highly tested and proven explanation based on observable phenomenon that occurs in nature. Scientific theories are supported by a large amount of evidence. On the other hand, a hypothesis is an explanation for a scientific question, but is easily testable and falsifiable. A prediction is a guess of what will happen when conducting an experiment, but a hypothesis establishes a relationship that helps to explain how the conductor of the study

I arrived at a shabby house, the paint peeling off the exterior walls and the porch con-caving. The gate screeched as I opened it. I mentally prepare myself to enter this rat infested adobe.

the chart that are of interest here. What happens to the number of a false alarms? What happens to the ability of the chart to detect a change? And what happens when the baseline data contain a signal? THE LIKELIHOOD OF A FALSE ALARM Mathematical theory tells us that the risk of a false alarm whenever we place a point on an X-Chart is approximately 0.27%. But what happens to this risk when only k values have been used to compute the limits? Simulation studies provide the answers shown in Table 1
