Suppose that IQ scores have a bell shape distribution with a mean of 105 and a standard deviation at 15. Using the empirical rule, what percentage of IQ scores are between 90 and 120?
An independent knowledge, attitudes and practices survey on COFLU-20 was conducted in a large first-world country. The individual attitude scores were found to be normally distributed with the mean of 5 and a standard deviation of 1.3. For our current investigation of the 300 respondents, the mean score for attitude was found to be 5.6 with a standard deviation of 2.8 The researcher has asked you to use a 3% level of significance, to test whether the population mean score for attitude towards COFLU-20 is significantly different from 5. To conduct this test, you are required to: (a) Explain the meaning of ‘3% level of significance’ to the researcher.
Ages of pennies have a mean of 11.13 years and standard deviation of 9.01 years. Suppose we take a sample of 200 pennies from a bank (one roll has 50 cents). What is the total (sample sum) of the sampling distribution of the sample sum of ages of these pennies?
The standard IQ test has a mean of 99, and a standard deviation of 16. We want to be 90% certain that we are within 5 IQ points of the true mean. Determine the required sample size.
Suppose that IQ scores have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 103 and a standard deviation of 14. Using the empirical rule, what percentage of IQ scores are at least 145?
An independent knowledge, attitudes and practices survey on COFLU-20 was conducted in a large first-world country. The individual attitude scores were found to be normally distributed with the mean of 5 and a standard deviation of 1.3. For our current investigation of the 300 respondents, the mean score for attitude was found to be 5.6 with a standard deviation of 2.8 The researcher has asked you to use a 3% level of significance, to test whether the population mean score for attitude towards COFLU-20 is significantly different from 5. To conduct this test, you are required to: (2) Explain the meaning of 3% level of significance' to the researcher. (b) State whether this is a one-tailed test or a two-tailed test. Give season for your answer. (c) State the null and the alternative hypotheses for this test. (d) Calculate the value of the test statistic for this test.
Ages of pennies have a mean of 13.13 years and standard deviation of 8.76 years. Suppose we take a sample of 150 pennies from a bank (one roll has 50 cents). What is the total (sample sum) of the sampling distribution of the sample sum of ages of these pennies?
The cost of unleaded gasoline in San Francisco once followed an unknown distribution with a mean of $4.59 and a standard deviation of $0.10. Sixteen gas stations from San Francisco are randomly chosen. We are interested in the average cost of gasoline for the 16 gas stations. What's the approximate probability that the average price for 16 gas stations is over $4.69?

Suppose you are a quality control manager at a manufacturing company that produces light bulbs. The company has recently made changes to the manufacturing process, and you want to investigate whether these changes have had a significant impact on the average lifespan of the bulbs. You collect a random sample of 30 light bulbs produced under the new process and find that the sample mean lifespan is 1200 hours with a sample standard deviation of 100 hours. Additionally, you collect a random sample of 35 light bulbs produced under the old process and find that the sample mean lifespan is 1180 hours with a sample standard deviation of 90 hours. Assuming that the population standard deviations are unknown but equal, test at a 5% significance level that the average lifespan of the light bulb has changed with the new manufacturing process.
