Find the indicated prediction interval.Is there a difference in pulse rates between male and female adults? In an experiment on a large group of first year university students, each student measured their pulse rates (at rest) on three different days. The average of the three pulse rates was then recorded for each student. Appropriate Excel output (using α = 0.01) is provided. a) Quantify the evidence for a significant difference in the mean pulse rate for males and females. Support your answer with an appropriate hypothesis test that draws on the Excel output provided at α = 0.01. State your conclusions clearly. b) Would the conclusions for this test be applicable to the general populations of male and females? Comment on any bias in the results that may have been introduced by using these samples. c) Calculate a 99% confidence interval for the mean difference in pulse rates for males and females based on this dataThe standard error of most sample estimators approaches zero as the sample size increases, so almost any difference between the sample statistic and the hypothesized parameter value, no matter how tiny, will be significant if the sample size is large enough. Researchers who deal with large samples must expect “significant” effects, even when an effect is too slight to have any practical importance. Is an improvement of 0.2 mpg in fuel economy important to Toyota buyers? Is a 0.5 percent loss of market share important to Hertz? Is a laptop battery life increase of 15 minutes important to Dell customers? Such questions depend not so much on statistics as on a cost/benefit calculation. Since resources are always scarce, a dollar spent on a quality improvement always has an opportunity cost (the foregone alternative). If we spend money to make a certain product improvement, then some other project may have to be shelved. Since we can’t do everything, we must ask whether a proposed product…Young's modulus is a quantitative measure of stiffness of an elastic material.
