A random sample of 144 UT business students revealed that on average they spent 6 hours per week on Facebook The population standard deviation is assumed to be 1.9 hours per week. If we want to develop a 95% confidence interval for the average time spent per week on Facebook by all UT business students, the margin of error of this interval is 0.413 O b:0.310 OC 0.443 0.261

A sample of 20 observation is selected from a normal population, the sample mean is 2.78 and the standard deviation is 0.83. Another sample of 18 observation was selected and the mean is 2.63 with standard deviation of 0.75. Test at 0.01 level of significance. What is the computed value and decision.
A simple random sample of 95 basketball players is taken from different teams and their mean weight is found to be 226 pounds and the standard deviation of the population is 20 pounds. Using 0.05 level of significance , test the claim that the average weight for all basketball players is 231 pounds.
A researcher collected sample data for 19 middle-aged women. The sample had a mean serum cholesterol level (measured in milligrams per one hundred milliliters) of 190.3, with a standard deviation of 9.5. Assuming that serum cholesterol levels for middle-aged women are normally distributed, find a 95% confidence interval for the mean serum cholesterol level of all women in this age group. Give the lower limit and upper limit of the 95% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to one decimal place. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) Lower limit= Upper limit=
A car manufacture produces a new car that advertises an average of 30 MPG. The distribution of MPG of cars is normally distributed. The manufacturer will test 30 cars off the assembly line to find a confidence interval of the average MPG of their new vehicle to determine if it is close to 30. The average MPG of the 30 cars is 31.2 gallons with a standard deviation of 2 gallons. Find a 95% confidence interval for the average MPG of the new vehicle. (30.45, 31.95) (30.48, 31.92) O (31.18, 31.22) O The sample size is too small to compute a confidence interval.
Bilirubin is a yellowish substance in your blood that forms after red blood cells break down and it travels through your liver, gallbladder, and digestive tract before being excreted. Elevated levels may indicate liver damage as your liver isn’t clearing bilirubin properly. A researcher is interested in estimating the mean Bilirubin level for a population of patients with liver disease along with its 90% confidence interval. The researcher collected data from a sample of 24 patients and found the average Bilirubin level is 86.08 with standard deviation 106. However, due to the skewness in the data, a natural logarithm of the data was performed to satisfy normality assumption required for calculating the confidence interval. The resulted 90% confidence interval for the mean Bilirubin level under the natural log transformation is (3.69,4.3). Which one of the following options best helps the researcher in making inference about the true population mean Bilirubin level? a. Based…
The Aloha Taxi Cab Company of Honolulu, Hawaii, wants to estimate the mean life of tires on its cabs. A random sample of 15 tires from the cabs are found to have a life of 18,280 miles with sample standard deviation of 1,310 miles. Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean life of all such tires on Aloha Taxi Cabs.
We surveyed a random sample of 15 domestic violence victims in Columbus, GA. who used the 911. From the sample response time from calling to police arrival was 8.5 minutes on average with a standard deviation of 2.7 minutes. From the estimaiton of the population mean of the arrival time with a 99% confidence interval, what is the upper limit?
A researcher collected sample data for 19 middle-aged women. The sample had a mean serum cholesterol level (measured in milligrams per one hundred milliliters) of 191.5, with a standard deviation of 6.5.
