A survey of 20 randomly selected adult men showed that the mean time they spend per week watching sports on television is 9.94 hours with a standard deviation of 2.06 hours. Assuming that the time spent per week watching sports on television by all adult men is (approximately) normally distributed, construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean, µ. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 256cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 114.6 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 174.87 cm and a standard deviation of 7.57 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was more extreme? Since the z score for the tallest man is z=____ and the z score for the shortest man is z=_____, the (Shortest/tallest) man had the height that was more extreme. (Round to two decimal places.)
Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 102.1 and a standard deviation 16.3. Find the first quartile Q1, which is the IQ score separating the bottom 25% from the top 75%. (Hint: Draw a graph.)
Use z-scores to make the following comparison. A high school student took two college entrance exams, scoring 1110 on the SAT and 27 on the ACT. Suppose that SAT scores have a mean of 950 and a standard deviation of 130 while the ACT scores have a mean of 22 and a standard deviation of 4. Assuming the performance on both tests follows a normal distribution, determine which test the student did better on.
Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 238 cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 142.4 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 175.45 cm and a standard deviation of 5.59 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was more extreme? ... Since the z score for the tallest man is z = 0 and the z score for the shortest man is z = the man had the height that was Im- more extreme. (Round to two decimal places.) shortest tallest

Use z scores to compare the given values. In a recent awards ceremony, the age of the winner for best actor was 28 and the age of the winner for best actress was 44. For all best actors, the mean age is 42.3 years and the standard deviation is 8.4 years. For all best actresses, the mean age is 33.3 years and the standard deviation is 10.7 years. (All ages are determined at the time of the awards ceremony.) Relative to their genders, who had the more extreme age when winning the award, the actor or the actress? Explain. Since the z score for the actor is z = and the z score for the actress is z=, the had the more extreme age. (Round to two decimal places.)
