10. A systematic sample of 1000 people across 10 states found that the average person generates 7.445pounds of trash per day with a population standard deviation of 1.11 pounds. Determine if theinformation can be used to create a confidence interval. If so, find the 99% confidence interval. Ifnot, give a detailed explanation as to why this information does not fit the definition11. It is thought that 36% of the United States population vote only for a single party. In the recentelection a random sample of 500 people in Tennessee were taken and it found that 225 have onlyever voted for a single party. Answer the following:(a) Find the 94% confidence interval for the average percent of people in Tennessee who will onlyever vote for a single party(b) If we wanted to ensure to keep the margin of error under 3%, how many people should wesurvey?(c) Based on your confidence interval, what can you say about voting patterns in Tennesseecompared to the United States?

The mean IQ for the entire population in any age group is known to be 100 with a standard deviation of 15. Suppose the IQ scores of 72 12th graders in Columbus are measured and the sample mean is found to be 103.4 and the sample standard deviation is 20.2. Do the scores provide good evidence that the mean IQ of this population is not 100? State the null (H0) and alternative (Ha) hypotheses. 2. What are the confidence intervals for this data? 3. What is the value of the test statistic? 4. What is the p-value for this data? 5. What is your decision about the null hypothesis?: Reject Fail to Reject 6. Summarize the conclusion in the context of the problem.
The dean randomly selected 33 students who took the calculus final exam and looked at their scores on it. In this sample the mean was 80.3 and the standard deviation was 3.7. No information about the population's distribution is available. Construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean score of all students who took this exam. Round your answers to 2 places after the decimal point, if necessary. If it is not appropriate to construct a confidence interval in this situation, then enter "0" in both answer boxes below. 98% confidence interval:
A large number of bags of cement have been manufactured. You sample 10 of the bags and find that they have a mean weight of 91.5 pounds with a standard deviation of 8.8 pounds. Find the 90 % confidence limit for the mean of the weight of all of the cement bags.
You measure 32 backpacks' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 79 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 10.2 ounces. Based on this, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean backpack weight. Give your answers as decimals, to two places
Mrs. Gallas wanted to estimate the average weight of an Oreo cookie to determine if theaverage weight was less than advertised. She selected a random sample of 30 cookies andfound the weight of each cookie (in grams). The mean weight was = 11.1921 grams with astandard deviation of sx = 0.0817 grams. Make a 95% confidence interval to estimate the truemean weight of an Oreo. 1. What is the formula for calculating the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of x? 2.What condition must be met to use this formula? Has it been met?
A forestry researcher is conducting a study of trees in the upper midwest. He selects a random sample of 125 red maple trees and measures the trunk diameter of each. The mean of the sample is 25 inches with a standard deviation of 5.2 inches, use this to find a 95% confidence interval for the mean trunk diameter of all red maple trees.
The heights of 9 men were taken with sample mean of 165 cm and standard deviation 5 cm. The heights of 7 Japanese women were taken with sample mean of 150 cm and standard deviation 3 cm.
