A fast food restaurant estimates that the mean sodium content in one of its breakfast sandwiches is less than or equal to 922 milligrams. A random sample of 49 breakfast sandwiches has a mean sodium content of 925 milligrams. Assume the population standard deviation is 11 milligrams. At a = 0.05, do you have enough evidence to reject the restaurant's claim?

Dr. Shoals predicts that people who walk a mile in moderately high heels will have less back pain than when they walk in very high heels. 27 participants walk in 4-inch heels and then 2.5-inch heels. He calculates the standard deviation of the difference scores and finds sD = 3.37. The mean back pain when walking in 4-inch heels is 6.75, and when walking in 2.5-inch heels, it is 3.25. What is the t statistic for this experiment
Use the Empirical Rule. The mean speed of a sample of vehicles along a stretch of highway is 63 miles per hour, with a standard deviation of 4 miles per hour. Estimate the percent of vehicles whose speeds are between 59 miles per hour and 67 miles per hour. (Assume the data set has a bell-shaped distribution.) Approximately % of vehicles travel between 59 miles per hour and 67 miles per hour.
Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 225 cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 104.3 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 173.55 cm and a standard deviation of 5.15 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was more extreme? Since the z score for the tallest man is z= and the z score for the shortest man is z= the V man had the height that was more extreme. (Round to two decimal places.)
Use the Empirical Rule. The mean speed of a sample of vehicles along a stretch of highway is 65 miles per hour, with a standard deviation of 4 miles per hour. Estimate the percent of vehicles whose speeds are between 57 miles per hour and 73 miles per hour. (Assume the data set has a bell-shaped distribution.) Approximately % of vehicles travel between 57 miles per hour and 73 miles per hour.
A set of population data has a mean of 586 and a standard deviation of 54.8. Calculate the z-score for a data point that has the value 607.9. Round your answer off to 2 decimal places.
Assume that the test scores for biostatistics midterm examination are normally distributed with a mean of 74 and a standard deviation of 10. i. Suppose that you receive a score of 88. What percent of the class received scores higher than yours? ii. Suppose that the teacher wants to limit the number of A grades in the class to no more than 20%. What would be the lowest score for an A?
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.
Use the Empirical Rule. The mean speed of a sample of vehicles along a stretch of highway is 68 miles per hour, with a standard deviation of 3 miles per hour. Estimate the percent of vehicles whose speeds are between 65 miles per hour and 71 miles per hour. (Assume the data set has a bell-shaped distribution.) Approximately nothing% of vehicles travel between 65 miles per hour and 71 miles per hour.
