A soft-drink machine at a steak house is regulated so that the amount of drink dispensed is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 210 milliliters and a standard deviation of 8 milliliters. The machine is checked periodically by taking a sample of 16 drinks and computing the average content. If x falls in the interval 203

Suppose that the hemoglobin levels among healthy females are normally distributed with a mean of 14.1 gdL. Research shows that exactly 95% of healthy females have a hemogoblin level of 16.1 gdL. What is the standard deviation of the distribution of hemoglobin levels and healthy females. Carry you intermediate computations to atleast four decimal places, and round your answer to at least two decimal places.
An analyst for a transportation metro is asked to examine the time required (x) in minutes for a specific commute route. She records 200 randomly sampled times and finds: Σx = 11,000 and Sxx =1791. Find the average commute time, as well as standard deviation and coefficient of variation.
The average height X and weight Y of males in population have a bivariate normal distribution with means µX 1.80 m., µy 90.0 kgs and standard deviations Ox = 0.30 m., oy = 15.3 kgs respectively. The correlation coefficient between X and Y is p= 0.80.
The nicotine content in cigarettes of a certain brand is normally distributed with mean (in milligrams) u and standard deviation o = 0.1. The brand advertises that the mean nicotine content of their cigarettes is 1.5 mg. Now, suppose a reporter wants to test whether the mean nicotine content is actually higher than advertised. He takes measurements from a SRS of 15 cigarettes of this brand. The sample yields an average of 1.6 mg of nicotine. Conduct a test using a significance level of a = 0.05. (a) The standardized test statistic (b) The critical value (endpoint of Rejection Region) is z* = (c) The final conclusion is OA. The nicotine content is probably higher than advertised. B. There is not sufficient evidence to show that the ad is misleading.
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 μ = 88 and standard deviation σ = 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 140 (borderline diabetes starts at 140)
