Confidence Intervals

When we calculate intervals in probability and statistics, it can be simply termed as finding out a confidence interval. The confidence interval is usually calculated from the data set which is observed. The value of the parameter that needs to be calculated is present here only.

Total plasma volume is important in determining the required plasma component in blood replacement therapy for a person undergoing surgery. Plasma volume is influenced by the overall health and physical activity of an individual. Suppose that a random sample of 50 male firefighters are tested and that they have a plasma volume sample mean of x = 37.5 ml/kg (milliliters plasma per kilogram body weight). Assume that ? = 7.20 ml/kg for the distribution of blood plasma.
One graph in the figure represents a normal distribution with mean = 15 and standard deviation o = 2. The other graph represents a normal distribution with mean u = 7 and standard deviation o = 2. Determine which graph is which and explain how you know .. Choose the correct answer below. OA. Graph A has a mean of μ = 15 and graph B has a mean of µ = 7 because a larger mean shifts the graph to the left. OB. Graph A has a mean of µ = 15 and graph B has a mean of μ = 7 because a larger mean shifts the graph to the right. OC. Graph A has a mean of u = 7 and graph B has a mean of μ = 15 because a larger mean shifts the graph to the right. G D.
