9. In a recent study, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported that diastolic blood pressures of adult women in the United States are normally distributed with a mean u= 80.5 and standard deviation o=9.9. The diastolic blood pressures of adult men in the United States are normally distributed with a mean u = 82 and standard deviationo= 11.1. Round your answer to two decimal places as necessary. !!

For a data set of the pulse rates for a sample of adult females, the lowest pulse rate is 37 beats perminute, the mean of the listed pulse rates is x=77.0 beats per minute, and their standard deviation is s=24.8 beats per minute. a. What is the difference between the pulse rate of 37 beats per minute and the mean pulse rate of the females? b. How many standard deviations is that [the difference found in part (a)]? c. Convert the pulse rate of 37 beats per minutes to a z score. d. If we consider pulse rates that convert to z scores between −2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high, is the pulse rate of 37 beats per minute significant?
Suppose that the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways are normally distributed with a mean of 60 miles/hour. The highway patrol's policy is to issue tickets for cars with speeds exceeding 80 miles/hour. The records show that exactly 5% of the speeds exceed this limit. Find the standard deviation of the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to at least one decimal place.

Suppose that the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways are normally distributed with a mean of 62 miles/hour. The highway patrol's policy is to issue tickets for cars with speeds exceeding 75 miles/hour. The records show that exactly 2% of the speeds exceed this limit. Find the standard deviation of the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to at least one decimal place.
Suppose that the heights of adult men in the United States are normally distributed with a mean of 69 inches and a standard deviation of 3 inches. What proportion of adult men in the United States is at least 6 feet tall? (Hint 6 feet=72 inches.) Round answer to at least 4 decimal places.
Now suppose that the true mean exposure time is different from 8h/day, yet the sample mean falls in the acceptance region. In this case we would fail to reject H0 when it is false. This type of wrong conclusion is called a A. type II error B. type I error C. no error D. statistically significant
A study reported that the mean concentration of ammonium in water wells in the state of Iowa was 0.71 milligram per liter, and the standard deviation was 1.09 milligrams per liter. Is it possible to determine whether these concentrations are approximately normally distributed. If so, say whether they are normally distributed, and explain how you know. If not, describe the additional information you would need to determine whether they are normally distributed.
