5. An experiment was conducted to compare the vinegar content of salad dressing on two different production lines. Production was monitored 10 times a day. The data are shown here. For Production line 1, the sample variance si= 2.0, for the production line 2, the sample variance s = 0.4. Find a 98% confidence interval for oi/o. Next ous
The average height of students at UT from an SRS of 11 students gave a standard deviation of 3.0 feet. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation of the height of students at UT. Assume normality for the data.
A scientist wants to establish if the Mississippi’s river height has increased using data from 1970 and 2020. Historically, it’s known that the variance of the height within any given year is 4.5ft. The sample from 1970 has 80 measurements with ?1μ1 = 30ft and the sample from 2020 has 260 measurements with ?2μ2 = 31.5ft. Find a 95% confidence interval for the average increase of height.
The mean and standard deviation of hemoglobin level of 23 vibrant students and 21 school children were found to be 10g/dl,2.2g/dl and 14g/dl, 2.2g/dl respectively.is there statistically significant difference with the average hemoglobin of the two groups?

Independent random samples from two normally distributed populations give the following results:nx =10x̅ =480sx=30 ny=12ȳ =520sy =25 If we assume that the unknown population variances are equal, find the 90% confidence interval for the difference of population means (40 points).
20 TV remote controls were followed over the years to find the mean lifespan of this model. The sample gave a mean of 7.2 years, and the standard deviation of 0.6 years. The distribution of the population is unknown. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean lifespan of these remote controls.
the mean and standard deviation of hemoglobin level of 23 vagrant students and 21 school children were found to be 10 g/dl, 2.2g/dl and 14g/dl, 2.9g/dl respectively. Is there statistically significant difference with the average hemoglobin of the two groups?
The correlation between a response and an explanatory variable was calculated as partof a simple linear regression analysis. The corresponding 95% confidence interval forthe correlation coefficient was calculated as [-0.2, 0.2]. Without calculating anything,what can you say regarding whether the explanatory variable is a significantly usefulpredictor of the response? Explain your answer.
A laboratory's measurement process for chloride concentrations was assessed by randomly inserting 15 specimens having a known concentration 10.0 mg/ l into the normal flow work over a period of two weeks. The work was arranged so that the observed values would be random and independent . The mean and sample variance of these 15 readings is estimated to be 9.46 mg/l and 1.44 (mg/ L)2. The confidence intervals for the true mean is
Dr. Moore wanted to estimate the mean cholesterol level for all adult men living in Hartford. He took a sample of 25 adult men from Hartford and found that the mean cholesterol level for this sample is 186 mg/dL with a standard deviation of 12 mg/dL. Assume that the cho- lesterol levels for all adult men in Hartford are (approximately) normally distributed. Con- struct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean u.
