A neuroscientist is interested in testing the effects of environment on dendritic branching in the hippocampus (dendrites increase the receptivity of neurons and may be an important basis of cognition). Tc test this, he took one group of rats (n = 11) and housed them in an "enriched" environment (consisting of a large box with tunnels to run through, toys to play with, etc.) and then he took another group of rats (n=11) and housed them in an "isolate" environment (rats were housed alone without any tunnels or toys). After 6 weeks, the number of dendritic spines in a particular region of the hippocampus from these rats was image and counted. The results are below. Did the different housing conditions have an effect on the number of dendrite branches? Solve using the steps in hypothesis testing. Mean number of dendrites Enriched condition 40 (Estimated) 10 Standard Deviation Isolate condition 10 4

An inspector inspects large truckloads of potatoes to determine the proportion with blemishes prior to using the potatoes to make potato chips. She intends to compute a 95% confidence interval for this proportion. To do so, she selects a simple random sample of 90 potatoes, and finds 12 with blemishes. The 95% confidence interval is (0.063, 0.204). What is the correct interpretation for this confidence interval? The inspector can be 95% confident that the proportion of potatoes with blemishes is 0.133. In 95% of samples taken, between 6.3% and 20.4% of the sampled potatoes would have blemishes. The inspector can be 95% confident that the interval from 0.063 to 0.204 captures the proportion of all potatoes on the truck with blemishes. There is a 5% probability that the proportion of all potatoes that have blemishes is either below 0.063 or above 0.204.
A survey of randomly selected university students found that 91 of the 101 first-year students and 96 of the 136 second-year students surveyed had purchased used textbooks in the past year. (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference the proportions of first-year and second-year university students who purchased used textbooks. (Round your answers to 4 decimal places, if needed.) Answer: (b) If a 98% confidence interval for the difference in proportion of first-year and second-year university students who purchased used textbooks is (0.0809, 0.3093). Give an interpretation of this confidence interval. O We are 98% confident that the first-year students at this university bought between 8.09% and 30.93% more used textbooks than second-year students. O We know that 98% of the first-year students bought between 8.09% and 30.93% higher than the proportion of second-year students who bought used textbooks. O We are 98% confident that, at this university, the proportion of…
A random sample of 169 New Englanders revealed that 154 wear a mask when they are indoors and not in their home. Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of New Englanders who wear a mask. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places. We are 95% confident the proportion of New Englanders that wear a mask is between _______% and ______ %. Please show all work showing how you got the answer so i can better understand thank you!

In a study of speed dating, male subjects were asked to rate the attractiveness of their female dates, and a sample of the results is listed below (1=not attractive; 10=extremely attractive). Construct a confidence interval using a 90% confidence level. What do the results tell about the mean attractiveness ratings of the population of all adult females? 6, 9, 2, 9, 6, 5, 8, 7, 7, 10, 5, 9
A random sample of high school seniors were asked whether they were applying for college. The resulting confidence interval for the proportion of students applying for college is (0.65,0.69). What is the margin of error?
Researchers are studying whether the proportion of homeschooled children in district 1 (considered 1) is less than the proportion of homeschooled children in neighboring district 2 (considered as 2). To test the theory info was gathered: district 1 had 600 students of which 90 were homeschooled. District 2 had 550 students of which 99 were homeschooled. What is the 95% confidence interval for the difference proportion between district 1 and 2? A. (-0.086, 0.026) B. (0.143, 0.217) C. (0.113, 0.187)
