A study done by Tufts University estimates that 53% of eligible "young people" (age 18-29) voted during the 2020 presidential election. A group of 500 such "young people" are selected completely at random. A) Calculate the expected mean and standard deviation for the number of expected votes in that group of 100 young people. Round to 2 decimals as necessary, USING PROPER NOTATION. Show all work for partial credit. B) Calculate mean - stdev and mean + stdev. C) Explain in words what those two numbers you calculated in Part B imply. For the toolbar, press ALT+F10 (PC) or ALT+FN+F10 (MaC). = v = v I.. ... Arial 14px

A group of 320 male students from the local high school have a mean mass of 70.41 kg. Records of similar students countrywide show a mean mass of 70.0 kg. A researcher wishes to determine whether the local students differ from the national group. what would be the research problem?
Dogsled drivers, known as mushers, use several different breeds of dogs to pull their sleds. One proponent of Siberian Huskies believes that sleds pulled by Siberian Huskies are faster than sleds pulled by other breeds. He times 4040 teams of Siberian Huskies on a particular short course, and they have a mean time of 7.77.7 minutes. The mean time on the same course for 4747 teams of other breeds of sled dogs is 6.26.2 minutes. Assume that the times on this course have a population standard deviation of 1.51.5 minutes for teams of Siberian Huskies and 1.61.6 minutes for teams of other breeds of sled dogs. Let Population 1 be sleds pulled by Siberian Huskies and let Population 2 be sleds pulled by other breeds. Step 1 of 2 : Construct a 95%95% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean times on this course for teams of Siberian Huskies and teams of other breeds of sled dogs. Round the endpoints of the interval to one decimal place, if necessary.

Imagine that for those who meditate daily, the number of minutes in meditation has mean 35 and standard deviation 10. In a group of 200 such persons, how many are expected to meditate more than 43 minutes per day? Click the icon to view the table of z-scores. Of the 200 persons, approximately will meditate more than 43 minutes per day. (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)

An adventure company runs two obstacle courses, Fundash and Coolsprint. The designer of the courses suspects that the mean completion time of Fundash is not equal to the mean completion time of Coolsprint. To test this, she selects 240 Fundash runners and 200 Coolsprint runners. (Consider these as random samples of the Fundash and Coolspring runners.) The 240 Fundash runners complete the course with a mean time of 76.7 minutes and a standard deviation of 5.2 minutes. The 200 Coolsprint runners complete the course with a mean time of 77.5 minutes and a standard deviation of 5.4 minutes. Assume that the population standard deviations of the completion times can be estimated to be the sample standard deviations, since the samples that are used to compute them are quite large. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there enough evidence to support the claim that the mean completion time, μ1 , of Fundash is not equal to the mean completion time, μ2 , of Coolsprint?…
In an inter-school competition, there are a total of 14 participants. Each participant answered 20 multiple choice questions. Below are the numbers of correct answers obtained by the participants: 16, 11, 20, 19, 18, 17, 15, 16, 17, 19, 20, 17, 13, 13 (a) Find the mean, 90 th percentile, interquartile range, and standard deviation of the number of correct answers obtained by a participant. (b) Each participant has a basic score of 100 points. For each correct answer, 20 points would be given; for each wrong answer, 10 points would be deducted. Use X to represent the number of correct answers and Y to represent the final points of the participant, express Y as a linear function of X. (c) Find the following summary statistics of the final points a participant gets in this competition: Mean, standard deviation, interquartile range, maximum. (d) Write a simple summary report (in around 30 – 50 words) about the final points of a participant gets in this inter-school competition. (The…
