Suppose that water usages in American showers are normally distributed, with an average shower using 16.4 gallons, and a standard deviation of 3.7 gallons. Estimate the percentage of showers that used between 9 and 23.8 gallons more than 27.5 gallons less than 12.7 gallons between 9 and 20.1 gallons
A survey found that women's heights are normally distributed with mean 62.3 inches and standard deviation 2.2 inches. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of at least 54 inches Find the percentage of women meeting the height requirement?
The shelf life of a battery produced by one major company is known to be Normally distributed, with a mean life of 3.5 years and a standard deviation of 0.75 years. What is the upper quartile of battery shelf life? Use the fact that the middle 50% of the data falls within 0.67 standard deviations from the mean.
The water consumption per week by Brampton residences is normally distributed with an average of 125 gallons of water and a standard deviation of 10 gallons. The city of Brampton claims that the average water consumed in the state of Brampton is not 125 gallons. A team of AU students draws a simple random sample of 10 residences and find the mean consumption value of 120.3 gallons. Calculate the Zc and p-value showing all the steps.
What is the standard deviation of a sample of 120 observations, if the variance of the sample 2.56?
The weight of male contestants is normally distributed with a mean of 96 kg pounds and a standard deviation of 12 kg. If 35% of contestants satisfy a maximum weight requirement for police officers, what is the maximum weight requirement?
Bone mineral density (BMD) is a measure of bone strength. Studies show that BMD declines after age 45. The impact of exercise may increase BMD. A random sample of 59 women between the ages of 41 and 45 with no major health problems were studied. The women were classified into one of two groups based upon their level of exercise activity: walking women and sedentary women. The 39 women who walked regularly had a mean BMD of 5.96 with a standard deviation of 1.22. The 20 women who are sedentary had a mean BMD of 4.41 with a standard deviation of 1.02. Which of the following inference procedures could be used to estimate the difference in the mean BMD for these two types of women
A non-symmetric dataset has a mean of 200 and a standard deviation of 15. Find an upper bound for the proportion of data points that are either greater than 230 or less than 170.
Humerus bones from the same species of animal have approximately the same length-to-width ratios. It is known that Species A has a mean ratio of 5.9. Suppose that 100 fossil humerus bones were unearthed at a site where Species A is known to have flourished. (We assume that all bones are from the same species.) The length-to-width ratios of these bones have a sample mean 5.6 and sample standard deviation 0.25. Can we conclude that the mean ratio of these bones is significantly smaller than those of Species A? Test with a 0.01 significance level. What is the standard error?
The combined SAT scores for the students at a local high school are normally distributed with a mean of 1469 and a standard deviation of 296. The local college includes a minimum score of 1824 in its admission requirements. What percentage of students from this school earn scores that satisfy the admission requirement?
