For a population with a mean of ? = 80 and a standard deviation of ? = 12, a score of X = 77 corresponds to z = −0.50. True or false?
The mean pulse rate (beats per minute) of a random sample of 40 males was 67.3 bpm. For a random sampl of 40 females the mean was 77.5 bpm. The population standard deviation for males is 10.3 bpm and 11.6 bpm for females. Using the P-Value method and test the claim that there is a difference in mean pulse rates. Use alpha = 0.03. Step 5: There is enough evidence to reject the claim that there is a difference in pulse rates for males and females. O There is enough evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in pulse rates for males and females. There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that there is a difference in pulse rates for males and females.

A sample of 200 people has a mean age of 21 with a population standard deviation (σ) of 5. Test the hypothesis that the population mean is 18.9 at α = 0.05.
A person's body mass index (BMI) is computed by dividing the weight (kg) by the square of height (m). The accompanying table contains the BMI statistics for random samples of males and females. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributedpopulations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Let population 1 be females. Female BMI: n=69 x=29.14 s=7.41 Male BMI: n=79 x=28.18 s=5.24 The test statistic is The P-value is Construct a confidence interval appropriate for testing the claim in part (a). The ___% confidence interval estimate is ___<μ1−μ2<___.
Suppose a variable is Normally distributed with μ=345 and sigma σ=30. What proportion of the data has values between 330 and 345? Use four decimal places in your answer.
A person's blood glucose level and diabetes are closely related. Let x be a random variable measured in milligrams of glucose per deciliter (1/10 of a liter) of blood. Suppose that after a 12-hour fast, the random variable x will have a distribution that is approximately normal with mean μμ = 85 and standard deviation σσ = 21. Note: After 50 years of age, both the mean and standard deviation tend to increase. For an adult (under 50) after a 12-hour fast, find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) a.) x is more than 60 b.) x is less than 110 c.) x is between 60 and 110 d.) x is greater than 125 (borderline diabetes starts at 125)
75 specimens of the new chip were tested and 67 specimens of the old chip were tested. The average speed, in MHz, for the new chips was 494.9 and the standard deviation was 19.3. The average speed of the old chips was 485.8 and the standard deviation was 16.7. Suppose we wish to test Ho : Hx - Hy = 0 versus H1 : Hx - Hy # 0. Calculate the z-score. (answers are considered correct if they're within 5% of the correct value)
A variable of two populations has a mean of 7.9 and a standard deviation of 5.4 for one of the populations and a mean of 7.1 and a standard deviation of 4.6 for the other population. Moreover, the variable is normally distributed on each of the two populations. a. For independent samples of sizes 3 and 6, respectively, determine the mean and standard deviation of x1 - x2.b. Can you conclude that the variable x1 - x2 is normally distributed? Explain your answer.c. Determine the percentage of all pairs of independent samples of sizes 4 and 16, respectively, from the two populations with the property that the difference x1 - x2 between the sample means is between -3 and 4.
