A Japanese shoe company investigates the foot lengths of young men to help predict the number of each type of shoe size that the company should produce. The company finds that foot lengths for young men are normally distributed with a mean of 24.9 centimeters and a standard deviation of 1.05 centimeters. Based on the Empirical Rule and the given information, what percent of Japanese young men will have foot lengths greater than 27 centimeters?

The U.S. Center for Disease Control reports that in year 1900, the mean life expectancy is 47.6 years for whites and 33 years for nonwhites. (Click here for reference data) Suppose a survey of randomly selected death records for white and nonwhite people born in 1900 from a certain county is conducted. Of the 110 whites surveyed, the mean life span was 48.2 years with a standard deviation of 11.2 years and of the 95 nonwhites, the mean life span was 39.3 years with a standard deviation of 16 years. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 0.05 level of significance to determine whether there was no difference in mean life spans in the county for whites and nonwhites in year 1900. Preliminary: Is it safe to assume thatnw≤5% of all white people born in 1900 andnnw≤5% of all nonwhite people born in 1900? No Yes Is nw≥30 and nnw≥30 ? No Yes Test the claim: Determine the null and alternative hypotheses. H0: μw μnw Ha: μw μnw Determine the test statistic. Round to four…

A community college Math instructor feels that the average age of community college students decreased since they started teaching 25 years ago. Looking up data from the year the instructor started teaching, the mean age of community college students was 24.3 years old, with a population standard deviation of 2.2 years. The Math instructor took a sample of 40 of their current community college students and found that the sample had a mean age of 23.7 years old. Assume the population of ages of community college students is normally distributed and that the population standard deviation has remained the same. Test at the 5% significance level if the mean age of community college students is now less than 24.3 years old. The question is attached.
