A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 55 men and 73 women to participate in the study. Each subject was required to step up and down a 6-inch platform. The pulse of each subject was then recorded. The following results were obtained.

The weight of a division I college football player has a mean of 255lb and a standard deviation of 24lb. What is the percentage that a college football player weighs over 280 lb?
3. The amount of time (in minutes) it took each individual in a sample of athletes to run a mile was recorded. In this particular sample, most of the athletes were able to run the mile quickly, but there were a small number of athletes who were not fast runners and needed more time to complete the mile. Two measures of center were computed for this sample: 12.9 minutes and 9.5 minutes. One of these measures is the mean and one is the median. Which measure must be the mean? A. The mean is 9.5 minutes because the distribution of running times would be skewed to the left. B. The mean is 9.5 minutes because the distribution of running times would be skewed to the right. c. The mean is 12.9 minutes because the distribution of running times would be skewed to the left. D. The mean is 12.9 minutes because the distribution running times would be skewed to the right.

According to a dietary study. high sodium in take may be related to ucers. stomach cancer. and migraine headaches. The human requirement for salt is only 220 milligrams per day. which is surpassed in most single servings of ready-to-eat cereals. If a random sample of 20 similar servings of a certain cereal has a mean sodium content of 244 milligrams and a standard devlation of 24.5 miligrams, does this suggest at 0.05 level of significance that the average sodlum content for a single serving of such cereal is greater than 220 milligrams? The p-value of the test statistic in 6 decimal places and the critical value in two decimal places is: example answer: 0.123456 and 1.23
A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 54 men and 75 women to participate in the study.

Matt Gaetz, a health educator, wants to evaluate the effect of a dental film on the frequency with which children brush their teeth. A random selection of 8 children are used for the experiment. First, a baseline of the number of times the children brush their teeth over a month's period is established. Next, the children are shown the dental film and again the number of teeth brushings are recorded for a month. The following data are recorded.

A certain prescription medicine is supposed to contain an average of 250 parts per million (ppm) of a certain chemical. If the concentration is higher than this, the drug may cause harmful side effects; if it is lower, the drug may be ineffective. The manufacturer runs a check to see if the mean concentration in a large shipment conforms to the target level of 250 ppm or not. A simple random sample of 100 portions is tested, and the sample mean concentration is found to be 247 ppm. The sample concentration standard deviation is s = 12 ppm. Suppose that the p-value was 0.0259. What is the appropriate conclusion to make if α = 0.05? Group of answer choices Fail to reject H0. We have insufficient evidence to conclude that the mean concentration is different from 250 ppm. Fail to reject H0. We have sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean concentration is less than 250 ppm. Reject H0. We have insufficient evidence to conclude that the mean concentration is less than 250…

In each of the following settings, decide whether the samples are independent or dependent. Explain your choice.a. To test the wear characteristics of two tire brands, A and B, each brand of tire is randomly assigned to 50 cars of the same make and model.independentb.

For another month, the subject works while listening to music on an MP3 player. The month in which each subject listens to music is determined by a coin toss.dependentc. A study was designed to compare the effectiveness of two weight-reducing diets. Fifty obese women who volunteered to participate were randomly assigned into two equal-sized groups. One group used Diet A and the other used Diet B. The weight of each woman was measured before the diet was assigned and again after 10 weeks on the diet.dependent
