The average amount of calories from a hamburger serves in a restauranr is 220 per order with a standard deviation of 30 calories. What is the probability that the mean calories from 20 orders is more than 200 calories?
To become an actuary, it is necessary to pass a series of 10 exams, including the most important one, an exam in probability and statistics. An insurance company wants to estimate the mean score on this exam for actuarial students who have enrolled in a special study program. They take a sample of 8 actuarial students in this program and find the mean of the sample is 6.0 with standard deviation of the sample 2.0. This sample will be used to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean score for actuarial students in the special study program. A 95% confidence interval for the mean score of actuarial students in the special program is from ________ to ________. Question 17 options: 1) 3.52 to 8.47 2) 4.69 to 7.31 3) 4.66 to 7.34 4) 4.33 to 7.67
The average time in years to get an undergraduate degree in Mechanical engineer was compared for men and women. From past experience, we know that the mean time for a female to finish her undergraduate degree is 3 years with a standard deviation of 0.5 year and the mean time for a male to finish his undergraduate degree is 3.5 years with a standard deviation of 1 year. Random samples of 40 male Mechanical engineer majors and 40 female Mechanical engineer majors were taken, the probability that the mean time for the selected males is greater than the mean time for females to finish an undergraduate degree is: O 0.0024 O0.0033
Does it take a different amount of time for seeds to germinate if they are near rock music that is continuously playing compared to being near classical music? The 48 seeds that were exposed to rock music took an average of 28 days to germinate. The standard deviation was 13 days. The 47 seeds that were exposed to classical music took an average of 32 days to germinate. The standard deviation for these seeds was 10 days. What can be concluded at the a - 0.01 level of significance? a. For this study, we should use Select an answer b.

A clinical trial is being conducted in order to determine the efficacy of a new drug that will be used to treat type II diabetes. The efficacy of the medication will be determined by the blood glucose readings obtained from the patients. If the researcher wants a margin of error less than or equal to 5 mg/dL and the standard deviation for blood glucose readings among type II diabetics was previous documented as 15 mg/dL, how many patients should be recruited for each group of individuals in the study assuming a 95% confidence interval will be used to quantify the mean difference in blood glucose scores between the control group and the treatment group? [1] n for the treatment group = 32 and n for the control group = 13 [2] n for the treatment group = 33 and n for the control group = 33 [3] n for the treatment group = 70 and n for the control group = 70 [4] n for the treatment group = 1729 and n for the control group = 1729
