5) A sample of 400 male students is found to have a mean height (55 + 18) inches. Can it be reasonably regarded as a sample from a large population with mean height 66 inches and standard deviation 1.30 inches? Test at 5% level of significance.
A research conducted by SSTA022 Class representative at the University of Limpopo indicates that running increases the lifespan among African men. The mean lifespan of 31 African men runners was 34.0% more than the mean lifespan of 31 inactive African men, with variances reported to be 110.25% and 104.04%, respectively. Assuming the populations to be approximately normally distributed with equal variances.i) Can you conclude that there is a significant increase in the lifespan of the men runners over the inactive men at ? = 0.05? ii) Construct a 95% confidence interval for ?1 − ?2.
A study was performed concerning risk factors for carotid-artery stenosis (arterial narrowing) among 264 men. The data reported is: Sample size Mean Standard deviationGroup 1: No stenosis 156 5.3 1.4Group 2: Stenosis 108 5.1 0.8 The test stastistic F is assumed to be 3.06 to check the equal variance. Question: Suppose researchers want to test if there is a significant difference in mean blood-glucose level between men with and without stenosis considering the critical F test is 1.35 with a equal variance (pooled), what is the test statistic for this test ?
The student will conduct a test of a single variance. Suppose an airline claims that its flights are consistently on time with an average delay of at most 15 minutes. It claims that the average delay is so consistent that the variance is no more than 150 minutes. Doubting the consistency part of the claim, a disgruntled traveler calculates the delays for his next 25 flights. The average delay for those 25 flights is 22 minutes with a standard deviation of 15 minutes. A sample standard deviation of 15 minutes is the same as a sample variance of ["", ""] minutes. find the a. Degrees of freedom = ["", ""] b. Chi2 test statistic = ["", ""] c. p-value =
Suppose two proposed computer mouse designs were compared by recording wrist extension in degrees for 23 people who each used both mouse types. The difference in wrist extension was calculated by subtracting extension for mouse type B from the wrist extension for mouse type A for each student. The mean difference was reported to be 8.71 degrees. Assume that it is reasonable to regard this sample of 23 people as representative of the population of computer users. (a) Suppose that the standard deviation of the differences was 10 degrees. Is there convincing evidence that the mean wrist extension for mouse type A is greater than for mouse type B? Use a 0.05 significance level. (Use μ = μA - MB.) Find the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) t = Find the df. df = USE SALT Use technology to find the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) P-value = State your conclusion. O Fail to reject Ho. We have convincing evidence that the mean wrist extension for…
In a comparison between the mean waiting time of the patients in the hospitals of Giza and Alexandria governments the minister of Health randomly selected 60 hospitals from Giza government and their mean waiting time was 30 minutes and the previous reports showed that the variance was 10 minutes. Also a sample consist of 50 hospitals from Alexandria governments was selected and their mean waiting time of this sample was 15 minutes and from previous reports the variance was 5 minutes. 1-Construct the 95% C.I for the difference between the average waiting time in Giza & Alex2- Without any computations, discuss fully and precisely what will happen to the results you obtained in part (1) if the confidence level changed to be 99% instead of 95%. Give the reason for your answer
Suppose that 90% of Narnians are children, that Narnian children have normallydistributed BMIs with a mean of 25 kg/m2and variance of 64 (kg/m2) 2, and that Narnianadults have normally distributed BMIs with a mean of 30 kg/m2and variance of 100(kg/m2)2. WHO currently categorizes BMIs greater than 30 as obese.a. What is the prevalence of obesity among Narnian children?b. What is the prevalence of obesity among Narnian adults?c. What is the overall prevalence of obesity among Narnians?d. Are age and obesity statistically independent in Narnia?e. What proportion of Narnians are obese children?f. What proportion of obese Narnians are children?
2) The manufacturer of a certain brand of automobiles component claims that mean life of these component is 70 months. An independent agency wants to check this claim and took a random sample of 40 components and found that the mean life for this sample is 67 months with a standard deviation of 5 months. At 5% LOS, can we conclude that the mean life of these component is less than 70 months?
chester butchery supplies vienna sausages in the entire kzn province. a meat packer is investigating the marked mass shown on vienna sausages. a pilot study showed a mean of 11.8kg per pack and a variance of 0.49kg. how many packs should be sampled in order to be 92% confident that the sample mean will differ by at most 0.2kg.
3. Overa long period of time, it was found that the time taken for the standard physical task is normally distributed with mean 50 seconds, and variance 100 sec². A sample of 75 workers were given a special and unusual diet for three weeks before they were observed performing said standard physical task. The mean time taken by this sample is 46 seconds. Is this significant evidence that the special diet has made a difference in their performance. Use a 5%level of significance.
A researcher decides to measure anxiety in group of bullies and a group of bystanders using a 23-item, 3 point anxiety scale. Assume scores on the anxiety scales are normally distributed and the variance among the group of bullies and bystanders are the same. A group of 30 bullies scores an average of 21.5 with a sample standard deviation of 10 on the anxiety scale. A group of 27 bystanders scored an average of 25.8 with a sample standard deviation of 8 on the anxiety scale. You do not have any presupposed assumptions whether bullies or bystanders will be more anxious so you formulate the null and alternative hypothesis based on that.
